Biden in 2005: ‘I Pray to God’ Dems Don’t Use Nuclear Option When We’re in Power

"Isn't what's really going on here, the majority doesn't want to hear what others have to say, even if it's the truth? Senator Moynihan, my good friend who I served with for years, said, 'You are entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts.' The nuclear option abandons America's sense of fair play. It is the one thing this country stands for: Not tilting the playing field on the side of those who control and own the field. I say to my friends on the Republican side: You may own the field right now, but you won't own it forever. And I pray God, when the Democrats take back control, we don't make the kind of naked power grab you are doing."
