The rules that are in place now about filibuster ( and other rules also)
were made to help the minority party (the repukes at the time). What the repukes don't know and/or refuse to understand is that some day (and I hope VERY, very, soon) they will again be the minority party and then they will have to live without all those protective rules that they flushed.

its just a sacrifice they are willing to make. And from thier perspective, I agree with them. They have momentum still, they wont have it forever.
