Super-Congress Kills the Constitution

Tuesday the second day of August 2011, the day our republic took its last breath. With the passage of the debt bill put forward by House Majority Leader John Boehner, our lawmaking body known as Congress, has been murdered. The Constitution of the United States created the Congress and gave to it the power to create laws according to the rules that it laid out. Bills will no longer be put forward by the House of Representatives. The Senate will no longer be able to filibuster a bill. A super majority will be needed to kill a bill put forth by the “Super Congress.”

This gutting of the Congress cannot be good no matter the angle you look at it from. The founding fathers knew a lot about power and corruption. They made the rules of the congress with the knowledge that over time PUBLIC SERVENTS would seek to control the people. The fact that bills could only originate in the House of Representatives was intentional. The House of Representatives is what is known as the “people’s house” and provides the best representation of the people. They gave the filibuster power to the Senate for the express purpose of making sure that a bad bill could be stopped dead in its tracks. They also made it so that a simple majority vote could kill a bill. All of these checks and balances put within the creation of the Congress are now gone, we have no way to stop the executive and legislative branches from a complete and total takeover of our country.

The Super-Congress will now be able to push an agenda upon the people with no way to stop them. The only redress of grievances now will be armed insurrection.
