And I, too, do not believe there were any two patriots with courage, willing to fall on their swords to stand up for their country that day.
YOU are FAR more diplomatic than I. I chalk it up to the red hair and the boiling hot Irish blood cursing through my veins. ;*)
See the link I posted in #54 and also what the USC says in regard to this matter. In 2001 the objectors were asked if they had a SINator that had signed off on their objections.
There is nothing in Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution that requires the President of the Senate to ask for objections. The simple fact that they were about to certify the Kenyan rendered the Constitution null and void anyway.
As I stated before, VP Cheney had little choice in the matter, IMO.
Thanks. Call me your “red hair and the boiling hot Irish blood” twin. Makes me sick.
