The media needs to ask Grover Norquist why they put this into the U.S. Constitution:

[supraTruth]

"The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States..." Section 8, Article I, United States Constitution

[Drale]

1. The terrorist French lovers snuck it in, because as well all know

[fascisthunter]

2. Great Post....

informative

[aquart]

3. Grover Norquist doesn't care about the constitution.

He cares about getting something for nothing.

[housewolf]

4. Does that mean that the IRS, Pentagon & Homeland Security should be transfered to the Congress?

Instead of being housed with the Executive branch along with the Treasury's bill-paying department?

5. pfft! typo.

[Warpy]

6. Somebody needs to ask the Republicans in power

why they continue to follow a man who has been wrong about everything all during his career? Don't they have an inkling that the man is a nutcase who expects magic to sort out an economy and who was only promoted on the basis of the Peter Principle by a few rich men who wanted it all?

Honestly, I think Republicans need tats on their foreheads, "SUCKER!"

7. Senate and Congressional Oath of Office. For some reason, I'm not seeing "Grover Norquist

anywhere in these two oaths. Seems to me they are all traitors. They have signed an oath to do what Norquist wants them to do. They need to be removed from office. Grover Norquist is a domestic enemy!

After our fabulous media asks Grover about the Constitution, perhaps they can ask the traitor Repukes about the Oath they ALL swore with their hands on their precious BIBLE. :grr:


Senate Oath of Office
