Unfortunately, the video is missing what led up to this.
AMERICAblog: Because a great nation deserves the truth: "The House Republicans just shut down the Patriot Act hearings while the Democrats were still talking. It was absolutely amazing. Then they shut the mics off on the Dems. Even more amazing is that the House Republicans have the nerve to do this during a hearing on, what?, the Patriot Act! A hearing about our concerns about shutting down free speech and civil rights and the Constitution. So what do they do, they simply shut down open debate in the US Congress. Horrifying."
Watch the videos for a bonus "Princess Bride" moment.
