A data point…

…from the memory hole. Something worth keeping in mind the next time somebody invokes the 'obstructionist Democrats'...

...in 1994, the last year in which there was a Democratic president with a Democratic Congress, Republicans launched more filibusters in one year than in the first 108 years of the Senate combined. At one point, Senate Republicans filibustered five pieces of legislation in one week.
