Nancy Pelosi is reported to be scheduling a vote on the Slaughter rule: where a rule vote will consider the Senate bill a passed bill, WITH AMENDMENTS!
This is reported in last night’s RedState briefing under the ominous title:Â Constitution Be Damned – ObamaCare Vote Next Week.
If you haven’t been concerned about this very unsavory process up until now, you should be. The constitution is clear:
Every Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States; If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law.
If these maneuvers by the White House and Pelosi are pushed into the Senate, the Parliamentarian must rule them out of order.
At that point, Vice President Biden can overrule the Senate parliamentarian.  As Charles Krauthammer states:
But if he does that, that’s not a nuclear option. That’s a thermonuclear option. That’s Krakatoa. That’s 100 megatons.
That will be a catastrophe if it is seen that the bill is pushed through by overruling a ruling of the neutral parliamentarian and passing what would otherwise be illegal.
Jimmy Gee made some scarey comments on the RedState Article:
I now understand why Obama used the State of the Union Address to ridicule the Supreme Court of the United States. He is trying to use Alinsky tactics to marginalize the Supreme Court of the United States; Obama knows full well that this unconstitutional power-grab will not stand and that they will be deciding on numerous parts of it this year. This will make the Gore/Bush election debacle look like a girl scout meeting!
As a nurse, I fear that once this becomes law, Obama, will soon after HCR is passed, will federalize all health care workers and put them under the SEIU. We will be forced to pay union dues to the SEIU.
Something else I fear. Someone is going to be killed in this mess. Some Senator, or Congressman will be shot at a town-hall, or even while out for pizza with their family. I fear something akin to the riots of the 1960’s.
But what I fear most, is that if the democrats get this bill through, and successfully pass it, they can, and will, do anything else they want to do.
But what they don’t understand is this; they see this as a means to continuous political power for how ever the United States exists. We, the people, see this as the death of the Constitution and the death of the United States.
Never corner a caged animal…you have not idea the fight in them!
This will end badly…
