The article is a revised version of the plenary lecture at the symposium on argumentation and rhetoric, organized by dr. Boris Vezjak and dr. Igor Ž. Žagar on the initiative of the National Council of the Republic of Slovenia. The article is a detailed, computer assisted analysis of discussion in the National Assembly. Its clear and unambiguous conclusion is that decision making in the National Assembly is in large majority based on the arguments of power (arithmetic majority of the ruling coalition), not on the power of arguments.
