I’ve come full circle on this. I started by believing it was 100% unconstitutional, and well it may be, but the Supreme Court hasn’t ruled on matters of procedure, just on content of legislation.

However, if it does skirt the rules of the Constitution, there is no way this protects the Dems who vote for this.

They still will take the full-court fall.

And they know this.

So it is still dead on arrival.

I see what he’s trying to do.

However, I think this crap should be fought to the end!

This guy is making a STUPID mistake....

“Dreier, who is the top House Republican responsible for making sure that Congress follows legitimate rules of procedure, told reporters yesterday that he is not a constitutional expert....”

Speechless.

Rep. David Dreier (R-Calif.), the ranking Republican on the House Rules Committee, indicated yesterday that he was resigned to letting congressional Democrats make the Senate health-care bill the law of the land without ever holding a vote on it in the House of Representatives

Who is this clown?
Will someone just shut this bozo up already?

Dreier, who is the top House Republican responsible for making sure that Congress follows legitimate rules of procedure, told reporters yesterday that he is not a constitutional expert and that he had not spoken personally to any constitutional experts about the issue. He did say he had indirectly gotten "input" from such experts.

Then he's an incompetent weasel and should be removed from such a position at a time when our very Constitution is under severe attack by enemies of the State. If he can't see that and thinks his lackadaisical attitude is okay...he needs a dope smack.

Why is this man a ‘top republican’? He admits he doesn’t know the Constitution, he admits he has had no meeting with Constitutional experts, apparently he has not taken the time to understand strategy or tactics.....

....yet he seems more than willing to broadcast weakness and ineptness.

It’s like watching a general on the battlefield who suspects the enemy may attempt an attack on the rear flank, throwing his hands up in the air and saying “Oh well, can’t do anything about it”.

I can’t stand the Republicans, they are worse than the democrats.

Drier has been on a daily slide from conservative to socialist for the last 40 years!

Is the healthscare thing getting in the way of a cocktail party for Drier, or is it that he just doesn’t care? I’ve never heard a more defeatist, wussy attitude in my life!

Then he has no business holding the job he's holding. If your job is "making sure that Congress follows legitimate rules of procedure", then you DAMN WELL BETTER be an expert in ALL the rules, including and most importantly the SENIOR RULES, namely the Constitution.

I called the office and the cutie answering phones has said the article is incorrect, he’s been taken out of context, and they are not rolling over.

1.That David Dreier is a limp wrist Rino. I remember when he was on ‘spouting’ about supporting the Normalization of Trade w/China in the 90’s. He is another slick haired rino.

2.Mitch McConnell said this is NOT Unconstitutional? What the hell is the MATTER WITH THESE PEOPLE?!

If Dreir can't raise the unconstitutionality of it, who can? That is WHAT HIS JOB IS.

If he means he can't stop the Dems, that is one thing; he CAN fight it to the last ditch and beyond

I'll bet there are a few Dems who won't want to do this.
