None of that changes the fact he voted to reduce the Senate’s required 2/3rd approval, to one of only 1/3 being required for approval

I'm surprised that such a senior and esteemed FReeper would say such a thing!

Congress cannot amend the Constitution by statute. The SENATE doesn't require 2/3 approval, the CONSTITUTION does.

The Corker "law" is such foolishness I can't believe anybody here even discusses it.

Since it pretends to do what a law cannot, it is simply a nullity.

Jim, I don’t have an argument with you on the point you raise.

Where I have a problem related to that argument is that Cruz voted in the affirmative on a bill designed to do just what you cay it can’t.

Why in the Sam Hell would he vote for it then. Ted should know better than anyone what you mentioned here is true. Why would he vote for the bill then?
