SENATE BILL: Shut Yo Face Resolution (Passed)

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

What a weird set of vote combinations up there.

Only on the No side - a conservative, a moderate, a liberal, and a socialist lunatic.

Well the Ayes are almost all Liberal party members, on something opposed by a President of their party. I would say it is a weird result all around.

The Constitution states that in order for the Resolution to become law, it had to be signed by the President. So if a piece of this resolution contained something seeking to be entered as a law, then the whole thing would need his signature. However, this entire resolution merely states recommendations by the legislative branch, and doesn't seek to become law, therefore it wasn't transmitted to the President for that reason.

I guess if the the Constitution says he can veto, he can, but it has no practical affect at all because you can't stop a bill from becoming law, unless it was aimed at becoming so in the first place.

I am not to favorable to having another stickied thread either, but I was willing to bend certainly for the overall thing to pass, which is what the constituent was most concerned about.
