The Constitution is dead.

Aloha: Is the Constitution dead? Right now this country is in the worst Constitutional crisis since the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. That crisis was averted when one U. S. Senator put the nation ahead of his party and voted not to impeach the President. It was that close. Now we have the House willing to "disobey" the Constitution and "deem" the Senate version of the health bill passed without a vote. It is called the "Slaughter" rule named after Rep. Slaughter. The rule "slaughters" the Constitution. Since the time of George Washington there has been a battle between the 3 co-equal branches of the federal government. At the State of the Union speech we saw the beginning of the end of the Supreme Court. How the battle between the Congress and the President will turn out is up in the air, but at the end we will have a country with the Federal Government having complete control of the lives of the people. At last report, 36 states have started the process of passing laws and or amendments to their constitutions, to nullify this law in the individual state. Where are those 72 Senators? Senators are the states reps to the Congress of the United States, and their job is to protect the state from intrusions from the Federal Government. May God bless the United States.
