I don't agree with them, but even if I did, any substantive arguments for or against the legislation do not matter one lick if the method you're using is legislative terrorism. I don't care how good an argument you have, "Do what I say or I'll shut down the government and put the country into default" is no way to govern.
The Dems will never cave in under those circumstances, and they shouldn't, for the same reason they wouldn't negotiate with terrorists: the next time they have an issue they feel is important they'll just take the country hostage again.
