Dang, I thought maybe my sinator had finally seen the light.

LOL, fat chance.

[OldDeckHand]

"Standing?"

Yes, without question. Will it pass the political question doctrine? Unlikely.

[Matchett-PI]

"If they go through with the rule, I hope Levin wins, but I doubt he will."

He'll win. We're right behind him. We have his back.

From your profile page: "You are only leading if someone follows. Otherwise, you just wandered off..."

You just "wandered off".

[Bitsy]

Mark.....you ARE the man!
Thank you and God Bless you!!!!

Thank you, God for Mark!!!!!!!

Free The Constitution!

[savedbygrace]

Maybe so. We’ll see.

[OrioleFan]

I would think if a bill is passed in the House without a vote, the challenge is that we have a Congress that ignores one person - one vote. In other words, why bother to send representatives to Congress when only the Speaker gets to decide what becomes a law and what doesn’t?

[DoughtyOne]

Couldn’t agree more...

[PhiKapMom]

Outstanding! He can join Republican Senate in filing suit. This is going to get interesting.

Levin is the one talk show host I listen to because he understands how Congress works or should work.

[BuckeyeTexan]

I knew it was too good to be true. Interesting to follow though.

[TMA62]

“The real fight on this case is up front, when Levin seeks a preliminary injunction barring the government from implementing any part of this bill.”
___________________________________________________________

Good points. I think that it maybe an uphill battle for the government to win the injuction because the case would not be just against one part of the bill but rather the ENTIRE process that made this bill advance. The ENTIRE bill would be ruled unconstitutional since the legislative process did not follow the Constitution. If I were a judge, I would grant the plantiff the injunction.

Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

On the Bubble (Major developments from the “yes” and “no” columns in the House)

Congressional Dems on Twitter
http://www.arrghpaine.com/congressional-dems-on-twitter

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.
At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.

When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!

We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!

[itsahoot]

Where’s the GOP on this? You would think that they would all do this.

Mitch McConnel never mentioned it last night when he was on with Greta, Hatch did mention it but didn't drive home the point. None of the Fox anchors even brought it up.

[rintense]

Go get ‘em, Mark!!!!!!!

[itsahoot]

There need to be lawsuits across the country. Relentless!

States have every right to challenge the Constitutionality of this nonsense, but I don't hear any chatter from them.

[henkster]

“If I were a judge, I would grant the plantiff the injunction.”

Yeah, me too. But guess what? Neither of us are Federal District Court judges. And that’s what concerns me. Hopefully Levin’s case will wind up in front of a Reagan appointee, not a Clinton clone.

[PA-RIVER]

It’ll go nowhere. Like that Paula Jones case. Like McCain-Feingold.

[itsahoot]

(bet Bambi cheated).

Bet you will never know, because we don't know if he even has a degree, no one has ever seen it. He was never a professor at Harvard, only an adjunct.

[itsahoot]

I would think if a bill is passed in the House without a vote, the challenge is that we have a Congress that ignores one person - one vote.

No it ignores the Constitution which plainly states how a bill becomes law.

Mark is called THE GREAT ONE for good reason!
