I don't really buy into the slippery slope idea that is usually used to say if we allow x then y is guaranteed to happen or has to happen. I trust the Democrats so that is why I see no problem with them doing this for what I see as a good purpose. I don't buy that because we allow the Democrats to do it for a good reason that we are then required to allow the Republicans to do a similar thing for bad reasons. Each is it's own case. If the Republicans use a similar (I would say not the same) technique for nefarious reasons I say we call them on it. If it is proven that the Democrats are being less than truthful (again I doubt it) then call them on it. I guess my cynical meter doesn't run as high as some peoples.
