Your memory is faulty again, Jon. That was back in the days when neither
party was using its minority position at the time to require that every
piece of legislation and every presidential appointment receive a 2/3
vote.


As soon as someone claims that something is "always" true or uses the term
"every" to support an argument (used twice in your reply), I'm skeptical.
Thus, I don't believe this is an accurate representation of the facts.
