    Well I did notice that Ruli said something stupid again, Rowser brought it to my attention.

    Same with q~daffy, clintoon, and all the other stupid nicknames the conservatives use here. Child-like mentality.

    Hello again, steve:

    In defense of my friend who needs no defending, he IS a Canuck. Do you know who's running for what up there? I don't.

    Illinois isn’t the only state where lawmakers can register their displeasure without actually voting against a bill. Colorado, Delaware, Massachusetts, Missouri and Texas also allow “present” votes or similar options in at least one chamber, according to a recent review of chamber rules by the National Conference of State Legislatures.

    In Hawaii, legislators can cast a “kanalua” (a Hawaiian word meaning “doubt”) vote during roll calls, essentially a pass. But after going through the roll call two or three times, depending on the chamber, the “kanalua” vote eventually counts as a “yes.”

    In Illinois, the “present” vote works as a vote against a measure during final action.


    It's a way state congressmen can express dissatisafaction on pork riders stuck onto otherwise good bills, like let's increase education spending as long as City Hall gets a new golf course.

    The Canuck has an opinion on most everything American we discuss so that's no excuse.

    Since you guys dominate the Current Events board there's nothing much else to opine upon there. Plus half the time I'm correcting the disinformation you spew.

    Gee, if you're always correcting us that's even more the reason you should have known.

    Biden: Impeach the resident the goes to war without congressional approval



    Quote:

    Ladies and gentlemen, I drafted an outline of what I think the Constitutional limits [garbled] have on the President with the War Clause. I went to five leading scholars, Constitutional scholars, and they drafted a treatise for me that is being distributed to every Senator. And I want to make it clear, and I’ll make it clear to the President: that if he takes this nation to war in Iran, without Congressional approval, I will make it my business to impeach him.

    What you call "Current Events" is usually related to trolling your conservative sites and digging up something you can post that makes fun of liberals - <yawn> It's just constant whining about what's wrong with your country. I'm kind of proud that Canadians on this board don't feel a need to do that.
