google the Hastert rule and then we can talk about fairness.
If Pelosi had kept the Haster rule in place, Bush would never have gotten Iraq war funding after 2007...since the bills that were deliberated and enacted never had a "majority of the majority" support.
I know a little bit about House rules and the way that the recent changes have been mischaracterized.
But i'm off to party now...be happy to discuss it later.
