The American people may not know about the rule change, but I bet they would endorse the concept. (Majority rules means a lot to “Americans” if they are in the majority, that is.)

RE :”The Senate vote Thursday to lower the barriers for presidential nominations should make it easier for President Obama to accomplish key second-term priorities, including tougher measures on climate change and financial regulation, that have faced intense opposition from Republicans in Congress. “

Cheering the imperial presidency. No checks, no balances.

Last night I listened to Savage play 8 year-old clips of harry, biden, bama, kerry et al. bemoaning the prospective loss of the filibuster, as they were in the minority at the time. Were the Republicans, some of them, angling to do away with the filibuster at that time? What provoked so much wailing and gnashing of teeth, or was it a false issue that the Dems used to try to embarrass the then majority party?

Thank goodness, now we get to have all the Commie/activist judges, commissars and other appointed animals.

Don't think Barry O's is getting anything else passed....

“The holding of all powers - legislative, executive, and judiciary - in the same hands, whether by one person, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, is the very definition of tyranny.”- James Madison.

Since the republicans have never acted like a opposition party they might as well go home until obama leaves office. They’re irrelevant so let every law passed by passed 55-0. I guarantee if the republicans did this the democrats would be begging them to come back.

Steamroller politics, inspired by the Third Reich's Blitzkrieg.

The Republic be damned. Freedom and liberty for individuals be damned.

There’s only one way to stop this: THE STATES. Texas can lead the way by refusing to abide by any EPA edicts upheld by the corrupt D.C. Court.

Thank you for referencing that article Zakeet. Please bear in mind that the following critique concerning the article is not being directed at you.

Regarding the Washington Post article, we’re getting multiple “realities” from the media concerning Obama. On one hand, since voters have started getting kicked in the teeth with the realities of the unconstitutional Obamacare tax tsunami, Obamacare is destroying Obama’s credibility.

Simultaneously, the media is claiming that changes in Senate procedures will make it easier for Obama to advance his socialistic agenda in his second term.

But also note the following. If patriots and former Obama supporters can get themselves organized for the 2014 elections, then the following scenario may be possible. If conservatives can win 2/3 majority control of both Houses of Congress in the 2014 elections, then Congress will be in the following position. Congress will have the authority, under the Constitution’s Clause 2 of Section 7 of Article I, to override presidential vetoes. This means that Congress will be able to repeal Obamacare, for example, without Obama’s signature. In other words, the Obama presidency will essentially be over.
