House cynically votes to thwart constitution

[sspadowsky]

OK, I understand the point. Too many distractions going on here at work. But to answer your question: "what wouldn't these sacks of crap be willing to do if they thought they could get away with it? Is there ANYTHING that they'd look at and say "No, no I wouldn't do that even for votes, even for winning the presidency, it would be wrong to do that."?"

"Nothing," and "No," respectively. Bush/Cheney & Co. have been shitting on the Constitution for the last four years in the interest of creating the illusion of safety and security. And they're using that illusion right now to try to get votes, even though (A) they haven't done anything to make us safer, and (B) people are susceptible to emotional pandering.

I want very badly to hold out hope for this country, but it's fading. I'm off to the House of Reps website to see how Nebraska reps voted on this one. I don't expect to be surprised.
