Oh the horrors!

by Jed Lewison

This is hilarious. Check out the sign, and then check out the Fox Chyron.



So Fox News is freaked out because Comrade Obamalinksy might dare to foist the democratic process upon the United States Congress, thwarting the will of the minority? Oooh, how scary.

Here's the thing that modern advocates of the filibuster always seem to forget: because doing nothing represents a policy choice, votes in Congress are choices between two different policy positions. There's no good reason why one side should need 41% to prevail, while the other side needs 60%.

Take the public option, for example: If you vote for the public option, you're voting to give the public the option to buy insurance from a not-for-profit with the scale to negotiate good rates. If you vote against the public option, you're voting to require everybody to purchase health insurance from private institutions.
