He can’t veto the balanced budget amendment. It must go to he states. He is screwed if it passes. THAT is why the senate will kill it...unless any democrats still care one iota about their country.

uh oh, Rush is saying, “Hold On.” and of course the amendment is only proposed, plus there is no specific language for an amendment ruling out tax increases to balance the budget. Looking like a set-up again, per Rush.

The Senate won't have to kill it.

A Constitutional amendment needs 290 votes in the House. Do you seriously believe there are 290 votes in the House to pass a (real) BBA?
