Can someone more knowledgeable about American politics please explain to me why the Republicans are allowed to do this and/or why the Democrats aren't doing the same? This seems like such a blatant abuse of the system, I'm baffled that it keeps happening.
I think alot of people are baffled as to why the Democrats aren't doing the same, or at least aren't comming up with some way to stop it from happening.
The idea is that they take the high road. They don't want to be seen stooping to the rude tactics that the Republicans are using. But, in the end, they just end up advancing the Republicans agenda even further, although at a slower pace.
It's frustrating, and somewhat suspicious.
They're all in on it. They aren't looking out for you.
