re: #9 Pass The Moonbaticide


I believe the Democrats used the same tactic with the GWB administration.
Plenty of blame all round, I fear

This link:

brennancenter.org

suggests that there have been far more filibusters since the Democrats took over the Senate. This also does not take into account the procedural delays (e.g., anonymous holds, filibuster threats) which the Republicans are using in addition to the filibuster.

Maybe you can find some articles from a few years back that decry the Democrats’ use of procedure to delay majority-approved legislation?
