Changing Senate Rules

Link
OK, you want to change the Rules of the Senate. go for it Senator Frist and the Republican Senators in charge of the Senate today. However, follow the Rules in changing the Rules, otherwise there are no laws that can't be broken. Think about what our country will be like with in effect, no Rules. Senate Rules currently require a supermajority to change the Rules. When the Senate breaks the Rules of the Senate next week and doesn't follow the Parliamentarian of the Senate and instead follows the Vice Presidents rulings instead, we have lost another piece of our democracy. Who didn't vote in the last election. You see it really did matter! Hope we still will have elections in 2008. There's no telling where this will lead and how much harm it will cause our democracy and fledgling democracies that watch us, like Iraq and Afghansitan.
