On the other hand, people on our side, at least those in politics, seem not to have the stomach or the spine for even "civilized" and "decent" and "respectful" argument, so if it comes down to shouting matches, I fear we will get steamrolled even worse.
This is, of course, assuming that more than one or two senators and maybe 40-60 reps are actually on our side and that the reason "our side" doesn't argue is that our side is actually not our side, which is quite probably a wrong assumption.
