Kind of bucking up against the foundation of our form of government we refer to as the US Constitution, aren’t they?

[BGHater]

They are gonna need a Constitutional Amendment, correct?

The continuing legacy of Bush's destruction of the republican majority.

Rush admitted yesterday that Bush was not a conservative. He assured us in the first election he was.

[pnh102]

Yet another reason why I quit the GOP. Why are elected members of this party so suicidal?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

And the hits just keep on coming...

[EagleUSA]

Just another vote for the RATS. Get used to this all-out effort to corner the voting process.

[magellan]

Constitution?

[Mojave]

When do Guam, Puerto Rico and Virgin Island get congress critters too?

[CougarGA7]

Seems like all that needs to happen is DC applies for statehood. Then everything is Constitutionally sound once they become a state.

[PGalt]

Thanks for posting. BUMP!

This is unconstitutional, and I don’t see how it can be passed via a simple vote in congress. This would require a constitutional amendment. Someone should file suit against this law as soon as it is passed.

A Senate committee approved a bill today that would give the District its first full seat in the House of Representatives, setting up a crucial vote by the full chamber sometime in coming months.

This is laughably unconstitutional. Under the Constitution, government was specifically to be denied representation.

It's okay. They're 99% Black and Democrat.

This will save ACORN (The Black, racist political organization) some of the $4.2 billion of taxpayers money they're to receive in the stimulus package.

Heritage Foundation analysis : http://www.heritage.org/research/legalissues/wm1569.cfm

Conclusion

Lawmakers need to reconsider their proposal to grant the District of Columbia representation in Congress by legislation. The plan runs afoul of a commonsense understanding of the Constitution, the intentions of the Founders, and more than two centuries of interpretation by legislators and the courts. If they seek to allow congressional representation for District residents, they should instead examine proposals that do justice to principles of republican governance and the Constitution.

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

Eff the constitution again, right leftists, liberals, DemocRATS?

[Blood of Tyrants]

Unconstitutional. It will never be implemented.

[dennisw]

Totally un-Constitutional!! A travesty. Catering to Comrade Zero’s cronies. DC has had no vote for two centuries and Demoncrats what to pervert this

[SueRae]

When was DC granted Statehood??? Unconstitutional.

This is another piece of Rahm’s grand plan to consolidate power in the Dem party. Ballot stuffing and dead [people voting is soooo yesterday, now we’re going to redistrict by stealing the census and then make new states?

Over my cold hard dead body.

These people are trying to move at lightening speed, aren’t they? The audacity of audacity.

[goldylight]

True, but they are being taxed without representation right now.
