If you needed more proof that all politicians are hypocrites, here it is. There's all this talk about filibusters and using them to block votes on judicial nominations, and the GOP is tlaking about the "nuclear option" to change the rules so you can end a filibuster with a majority vote, and thus be able to commence the majority vote on the nomination approvals. Democrats are whining that the GOP is trying to change all the rules and go agaisnt the Constitution and hundreds of years of history.

So much misinformation!!!! To start, the current rules on filibustering were only added about 50 years go. And while the GOP has used the same tactic on judicial nominations once before, the Dems are doing it all the time now. The hypocrisy comes from the fact that the GOP used the tactic themselves for something in 1995, and at that time at least 19 Democratic congresspeople were in favor of what the GOP is calling the nuclear option. Now many of these same congressmen are on the other side and suddenly the nuclear option is the root of all evil. Hypocrites.
