#1 Not enforceable. Any subsequent Congress could change this on a simple majority vote. I'm hoping they'll scrap this entire monstrosity.

#2 Uncle Phester; the money shot for me was in the headline that was not included: "We are no longer a nation of laws." Congress does what it wants choosing to ignore little (sarc) things like our Constitution.

I'm listening to a talk show Herman Cain sub for Neil Boortz out of Atlanta. He posed the question: Why do we keep electing and sending these people (Congressmen and President) to Washington? Well, one answer is that many of them lie through their teeth. Who actually goes to Washington is nothing like who campaigned.

There is an anti-incumbent mood in the land. Voters have to be careful they don't toss out someone reasonably good only to get someone worse. We have a fairly decent Congressman in our district. He listens, for the most part, to the constituents. He has not always followed party lines. If voters voted for someone else, they might get a partisan Democrat who always follows party lines.

#3 Reid wants to create a boulder so big he couldn't repeal it.

Thank God Reid ain't the demiurge he thinks he is.
