Is there any chance Obama would veto it? Presidents were originally only supposed to veto bills that went against the Constitution; might Obama do that?
There are few bills Obama is less likely to veto. I'm sure he completely supports it.
I'm hoping the lawyer in him will recognize how unconstitutional this bill is, and that will lead him to veto it.
I'd take fair over constitutional any day of the week. Your argument is so ridiculous.
The only thing that's ridiculous is ignoring the Constitution because someone thinks the result is fair. The only thing that's fair to all of us is to follow the Constitution, lest it be ignored on a whim due to somebody's arbitrary view of fairness.
If DC wants a voting House member, amend the Constitution.
Oh give me a f**** break. DC not only wants a voting House member, but they deserve one as well. Would you like it if someone deprived you of the right to be represented in Congress? The Constitution was written at a time when Washington DC didn't even exist. Get over it already.
