The crisis of elite impunity that is ruining our society cannot be more clearly or convincingly demonstrated than with the fact that all of these people wrote all this stuff into an email and hit Send.
They didn't put a damning trail of evidence in writing because they're naive or ignorant; they did it because they have no fear of consequences. None at all. ...
Wow, finally a good op-ed ...

In retrospect, should the democrats gone ahead at let the Republicans remove the ability to filibuster from the Senate back with all that bru-ha-ha in 2005?
Ed says:
It's funny how it never occured to retards like Bill Frist that the rule change could someday be used against the GOP, isn't it? But you have to remember, I suppose, that the rule change was being discussed back in the "permanent republican majority" days.
Fortunately there were a few Republicans who realized that they might not be in power forever. Yes, had the rules been amended the GOP would be looking at a first-class reaming in a few weeks. I suppose the Democrats could change the rule, although I think that would inspire a lot of backlash.
