I said the other day that this is what happened and was assured that they couldn't do it. I replied, I think, that it was all up to the party in power to open and close sessions, so we are screwed

(14,521 posts)it is similar to what Nixon did. That was the straw that broke the camels back for the Republiklans then. I don't think it will have any impact on todays crop of Republiklans.
