So, if it passes, how do we sue the fed government?

Make no mistake about it, these traitors are going to force this through.

It doesn’t matter that one to two million people showed up at the White House to protest this arrogant and incompetent theft.

It doesn’t matter that most of the American public doesn’t want any of this.

It doesn’t even matter that they don’t even read the damn thing before voting it into law.

They don’t care what it costs you and they don’t care how much this hurts our country.

Hopefully, this will be the straw that breaks the camels back, leading to it’s swift and certain death.

Quit talking about it and DO IT, if you have the votes.

We're waiting...

Sorry. All the YouTube stuff cuts off before Harkin's expression of disbelief.

He keeps smiling and clapping but his face is like, "Why am I smiling?"

If they have them then why haven’t they brought it to a vote yet?

Because it buys them time to try to turn the Polls around.

Plus they have not finished bribing blue dogs for their votes.

I read on Obamacrimes.com that 33 U.S. states have filed for “sovereignty” because they worry what is coming down the pike. Although some say if your state sues the Fed Govt for sovereignty rights, the Feds will stop govt monies to that state (I would really, really miss my SSAN check).

"If it does pass, can we start sueing the government to stop it. What rights do the states have?"

Plenty. Texas will probably be first in line to credibly substantiate that states have "standing" in this matter. The Governor and AG have been working on contingency plans since the spending bill passed. Other governors have led in this area, but Texas is financially in the best shape to push the fight and has the most sovernty to lose.
