What I always find worse than the lengths of hypocrisy the Dems will sink to (I expect that, and the Republicans are only marginally less hypocritical) is the way the press just REFUSES to play even a little bit fair. To the extent that the mainstream press reported at all the hysteric screams of a few years ago when the Republicans only threatened to do this, they've helped make the Dems case by pretending that the Republicans brought this on by their "unprecedented" actions.
It's like the government shutdown. No matter how a shutdown happens, it's always the Republicans fault. This is the same. The Republicans were going to shut down the filibuster a few years ago, and now it's the Republicans shutting down the filibuster by leaving the Dems no choice. The press is a joke.
Finally on this subject, where is the Gang of 14 now? I hope they feel like the stupid cowards they are. They represent the lack of balls on the right that is so common these days. At least the Dems aren't afraid to wield every bit of power they have.
