Constitutional Crisis today?
When the joint session of Congress meets today to certify the Electoral College votes that gave President Bush his second term, several Democratic House members are expected to contest the results.
Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., will participate under congressional rules that would then require senators and representatives to recess to their respective chambers to debate certification.
Go Barbara!
Ok, I know this is just polical theater and the Republicans have the votes to over-ride the challege. But revolution from time to time is good.
If nothing else, it will wipe the Tsunami story off the news cycle for about a day, maybe? I hope not.
