The FooFooDust of Language

AP reports that 9 (D) votes may switch to "yes" on ObamaCare in the House.

Noteworthy:

Democratic leaders have asked colleagues not to use the term "reconciliation" but instead to refer to the process as "majority vote," said Rep. Allyson Schwartz, D-Pa. They also are frequently using the term "up or down vote."

Uh-huh. What's the phrase...."Tyranny of the majority"? That would be why the FedGov is set up the way it is, with the Senate's 100 members NOT determined by population, right?
