^This. Dingy Harry took a house appropriations bill and struck every single word including the title and inserted the Affordable Care Act as an amendment. This lawsuit will go nowhere.
When they took a totally different bill, deleted all the text and replaced it with new text, they cheated. I noticed this from day one. They bypassed the entire process by bending the rules into a pretzel. The entire text of the bill did not come from the house originally. Its like a murderer getting off on a technicality. So as it stands the senate can create tax and spend bills by using a cheap weasel trick that bypasses an explicit requirement of the constitution.
If they did this on paper, they would have to erase it and rewrite the bill text. If they did that, the sheet of paper would have come from the house, but the text of the actual ‘bill’ would come from the senate.
The text is the part of the bill that must originate in the house, be examined debated and approved, not the sheet of paper or empty shell of a pdf file. Hell, they can take any random house bill and re-create it from scratch then pass it off as law.
