4. What, pray tell, is the problem?
It has always been that the majority makes the rules, and the minority isn't happy.

The GOP was a minority for most of the last few decades, and I'm sure they weren't particularly happy with the rules, either.

This sounds like sour grapes, to me, at least. It would seem to me that whining on TV leads to little more than contempt.
