Under the President's ability to introduce legislation, I present the DanielX Lacks a Sense of Humor Act of 2005:

WHEREAS, Senator DanielX of Wyoming has no sense of humor whatsoever.

WHEREAS, Senator DanielX entered Articles of Impeachment following what was clearly a joke.

WHEREAS, today is Tuesday.

The Senate declares that Senator DanielX of Wyoming be forced to spend at least an hour a day watching improvisational comedy at the Lander Center for Creative Arts in Lander, Wyoming.

What is the rationale for having five justices?

Yes I cannot see any reason for this amendment. It is already hard enough to try to find three active people who are willing to be justices finding two more would just add more hassles.

The Mideast has the right idea:

Signature and Avatar Amendment
1.  The Senate of the Republic of Atlasia hereby recognizes that a mandatory statement of a voter's registration in a person's avatar or signature is no longer necessary to aide the administrator of an election to determine the state in which a voter is registered.

2.  Upon this recognition, the Senate of Atlasia with the formal consent of the Regions shall repeal Article V, Section 2, Clause 2 of the Atlasian Constitution effective on August 18, 2005.

Fine, everybody that wasn't standing on Capitol Hill when this amendment was proposed that thought of this before... has the right idea.

Packing it with people who will overturn Bono vs. Atlasia and render Supersoulty's unwed mothers protection bill constitutional.

Uh...Preston, one of the first people I would suggest to Siege for any expanded court would be Dibble and then probably Peter Bell since both have a great knowledge of the constitution. I'm doubting that either of these people will swing it in your favour. Actually I believe that all three of the current justices would come to the same conclusion as the majority opinion in that earlier ruling.

Striking of the 24 Waiting Period

Primary Sponsor:[/b] Senator MAS117
Co-Sponsor:[/b] Senator Colin Wixted, Senator Supersoulty, Senator King, Senator MasterJedi, Senator Sam Spade, Senator Gabu

1.) Article 3, Section 2, Clause 6 is hereby removed from the Official Senate Procedural Resolution.

I realized that since MAS is no longer in the Senate, I would like to take over sponsorship of this resolution.

Time to cut to the chase here:

Reunification of the Southeast Bill[/u]

Clause I

The State of Virginia shall henceforth be located in the Southeast Region.

Clause II

This bill shall take effect immediately on September 1, 2005 or once approved by the residents of Virginia by plebiscite and by the Southeast and Mideast Regions, whichever occurs at a later time.

I'm simply letting the people decide if they want the bill approved.  If they disaprove of it, they will reject this amendment.
