This deal will be declared unconstitutional. The people who gave him the deal know this, and they don’t care, because they got the vote.

And honestly, I think any seated grand jury in the country could issue an indictment. In fact I think that if members of a grand jury BELIEVED that there has been a crime committed, it would be a VIOLATION OF THEIR OATH if they do not investigate it.

Also, shouldn't Harry Reid and NancPelosi be held accountable for attempting(successfully)to bribe congress? Couldn't they be subject to arrest by one of the affected states? If we are going to be governed like a banana republic, it is time our congress be treated like the representatives of a banana republic!

“Graham has already announced that he will be there with the Democrats on Cap and Tax and on Amnesty in the coming year.”

Hence the “when he wants to be” qualifier. He was actually very good during the Clinton impeachment trial.

Love him or hate him, the guy is no dummy, which is why its so confusing when he acts smart.
