well, I'd know that if i did my research. Good work.
ReplyDeleteSo, the interesting thing then, is how long can an elected representative of the people continue to flout the law and the constitution before such time as ... something happens. I don't even know what would need to happen, if the people keep voting for this.
Courts do not look kindly on such behavior.... she should expect a charge of contempt and some jail time and fines for her actions, plain and simple.
ReplyDeleteWhich court has jurisdiction?
ReplyDeleteYeah, James Sauers , she practically said as much with the "you can kill me but not stop me" rhetoric. I imagine there's a court that can remove officials who have so egregiously violated the 12th amendment ... right?
