When did parliamentary procedure become discretionary?

[Horse with no Name]

What we are seeing is a former shell of a democracy.
Rules are only enforced when and only when they benefit the Body Politic.
Very soon I fear this charade will be revealed to show that our government is a farce.
We live in a dictatorship.
Welcome to Amerikkka.

1. Not that it's right

but we stuck it to republicans when we were in control of the House.

republicans may have taken it to a new level, but Democrats pulled the same crap when we wanted votes to go our way.

I'm not excusing the behavior, but it's hard to cry that we've been victimized when we play by the same rules.

The smartest thing we can to is regain control, then we can mess with them again.
