> Nothing about what I wrote had anything to do with what congress is authorized to do. It was about the internal rules of the house and senate, and the process by which they are made.

If you genuinely don't understand how congress came about and why their actions are accepted by the other branches of government, I would recommend doing some reading of history.

Ah yes, the classic condescending response.

It must be the case that I simply haven’t read enough, simply because my understanding differs from yours. It can’t be possible that my points are a result of careful study over several years.

Speaking of careful study. I suggest that you go back and actually read what I wrote and address what I said. Please inform me where in the constitution there is a prescription for what the house and senate rules must be.

You keep talking about congressional authority. I will reiterate, that is completely tangential to my points.

If you think my response was condescending, why did you provide a substantive reply?

Most users on HN would rather not encourage that kind of behaviour.
