Amendments has struck down "3/5" clause. They read Constitution as it stands...

Super majority Democrat Congress chose not to go for Public Option. Democrats too divided. But blame Republicans if it make you feel better.

Dave Hogan start living in reality. We all know barry can veto. Is not a State secret. It also not a secret that just the House in our hands can stop all funding for obamacare. Cutting the head off the serpent.

Then there is the Supreme Court.

Don't leave barry out in the cold either. In 2006 he was against raising debt limit but now for. barry was against extension of tax cuts for those Billionaires as you all like to call them. Now for. He was against repel of obamacare, tomorrow, we will see...

What might be making you so irate & insulting is changes occurring at White House with Wall Street Dailey coming to town.. Has barry gone right of you ?

If you are in a home and want to refinance, 2 things are absolutely key. First, you must have meaningful equity in your home. Second, you must have a good credit score. But in this economy if you do not have both of them still you could get a good rate, Search online for "123 Mortgage Refinance" they gave me the lowest rate of 3.45% my credit history is not so good.

The Supreme Court unleashed a new corporate kleptocracy with their Citizens United Decision that undermines the Constitution and is the new slavery of our generation. Evident in the new Congress that considers the misinformation in the recent election as a mandate to give away the country to the uber-rich and multinationals, both that show little allegiance to this country anything more than what they can steal.

75% of Americans were at one time for the Public Option. The Insurance companies will now find 35 million new customers because of Joe Liebermann, and you don't think that is good for business?

You are as misguided as any Republican, they control one body in the Legislative branch and will soon be found as feckless as they were when they ran the whole show, and the country into the ground from 2000-2006.

President Obama will veto any repeal measure. So please start living in reality unlike your skewed opinion on what is encouraging.

.... the GOP had allowed the FULL constitution to be read. Pretty disingenuous to leave out a variety of sections, including the "3/5" clause.
