missing amendment part 2...

Yes, I realize that the House of Representatives barely passed a law on the line-item veto yesterday. However, there is a big problem with it. The last line-item veto law was struck down as being unconstitutional by the Supreme court. It probably will do it to this one also, if it becomes law. It's unkown if the Senate is going to pass it at this time anyway. It needs to be written into the US Constitution.

An interesting point on the House vote is that the Democrats, except for 34 of them, voted against it and the Republicans voted as a bloc for it. Interesting. Was the vote purely political against the Republicans or do the Democrats want to maintain the status quo for their own greedy benefit?

just asking...
