Sadly the bill passed yesterday. I am unaware of a time when the constitutional powers of congress have been so completely trampled on as when they passed this bill. The entire system of checks and balances has been destroyed. It should be no problem for Michael to get this bill declared unconstitutional but that just means more time and more money wasted for everyone involved in this case.

I have already written my House representative to let him know exactly what I think of his working knowledge of the constitution and questioning what on earth led him to believe he could vote in favor of this bill. The courts have decided; congress, George and Jeb have no business interfering and certainly no constitutional authority to do so.
