It isn't wise to rewrite the rules of the Senate every time the
majority changes. Right now, the Ripuplickin's have a couple of vote
advantage. The day come when the Demoncraps are on top again, and when
that day comes you right wingers will once again be *very* interested
in the traditional senate respect for the voice of the minority.

If you want to marginalize the minority, when have 100 Senators at all?
Send the 48 non-Republicans home, save the taxpayers the money for
their salaries, and you guys can just run roughshod over the government
like it's your private feifdom.

Chuck, you're getting awfully political lately.

You're not building up to another sabbatical, are you? We'll miss the good stuff
if you take one.
