Senator Jim DeMint (R-SC) is blocked by Senate Democrat Leadership from having a vote on his amendment to audit the Federal Reserve, based on a bill authored by Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) in the House, H.R. 1207, and Senator Bernie Sanders (D-Vermont) in the Senate, S. 604.
I guess in a 60-Democrat Senate, rules don't apply equally.
Democrats know what to do with power when they get it. Just imagine what could have been done before 2006 if the republicans had a spine!
Headlines “SENATE LEADERSHIP VOTED OUT OF OFFICE”
I think we should get on the stick and let our “Senators” know what we think.
Fast forward to 4:55 in the video and listen to Sen. DeMint get the presiding officer, Sen. Kay Hagan (D-NC), to admit other Democrat amendments included in the bill were, in fact, also violations of the germaneness rule.
Let’s make it happen. I understand a military man is running for office in AZ. They are out there and we need to find them.
