Of course the Chinese communists eventually quashed the demonstrations violently, killing untold numbers of protestors.

And the parallel will be that DEM obstruction likewise won't stand the test of time. Sometimes obstruction is futile.

I do agree though, of course, that the attempt to draw an equivalence is a low blow. The GOP is advocating adherence to a constitutional principle. The communist chinese were asserting violence as a means to hold (communist) control.

The GOP is proposing a rules change. The ChiComs KILLED lots of innocent people! I'd say the comparison is a tad overdone!
