ORIGINAL: WickedsDesire The other fellow who will be voted to the Supreme court either way, needs 51 votes, the nutickers changed the rule of 60, to simple majority. Now how did president dangerous fukwit do this....Christ dont tell me it was an executive order? Actually can you explain the 60 rule to me. That's from 100 isn't it, or kinda 60% rule (to low)...whats the origin of that one? Actually the Senate did this, the president has no control over senate rules. In point of fact, when the dems controlled the senate, the republicans raised a major stink, calling it a move to eliminate republican power in the senate, and therefore wrong to do so. So, the democrats backed off and left the super majority rule (rule of 60) in place. Now, that the Republicans have control of the senate, then of course if they do it, there is no move to eliminate the voice of the other party. Basically, it is political hypocrisy in action.
