Did you hear what you thought you heard?
““Again and again in recent years, the filibuster has been the shame of the Senate and the last resort of special interest groups. Too often, it has enabled a small minority of the Senate to prevent a strong majority from working its will and serving the public interest.””
— Senator Edward Kennedy, 1975
Just remember what he said then and what he says now. Then ask yourself what the difference is.
