The phrase “in all [] Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by Yeas and Nays” refers to attempts to override a presidential veto.

Both the House and the Senate are free to create their own rules pertaining to the passage of bills Article 1, Sec. 5 “Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings”

This is evidenced by the fact that quite a number of bills are passed by the Senate via Unanimous Consent. Yes, UC is used for other reasons to facilitate the smooth and timely functioning of the Senate, BUT, it can indeed be used to pass bills without an actual vote. No yeas or Nays are recorded nor is their a voice vote.

You could search google for “legislation passed by unanimous consent” and you will find many examples.

Here is one from Thomas:

This is NOT to say that the Slaughter rule is indeed Constitutional or within the rules of the House. Rather, just pointing out that your supporting argument is factually incorrect.

Of course, impeachable offenses are whatever the House says they are …

PLEASE FIND A WAY TO GET REASONABLE PASSWORDS FOR THIS SITE. IT IS RIDICULOUS.

Let your guard down anytime before January 3, 2011 when God willing, Congress changes party hands again, and they’ll sneak this garbage through.

Faster, please!

Wait, it does! I didn’t even have to deem it.

Perhaps I should deem us all some pitchforks and torches?

Now gimme my yacht.

The President has signed into law a major plank of his campaign. Under this new program, suburban homeowners will be offered the opportunity to exchange their property for Homesteads in the Pristine Planet housing developments being constructed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development which will concentrate the human footprint in urban centers and reduce human ecological impact to the planet.

Homeowners will receive credits toward moving expenses, job retention, energy consumption, and retirement annuities for displaying cooperation with the National Goals in regard to this important progression in civic responsibility. This critical initiative will enable the protective agencies to monitor and control crime, activities that are detrimental to the collective goals of minimal environmental impact, health habits, and anti-social behavior and thought patterns.

Failure to comply with the objectives of the program could result in the confiscation of all real and monetary property without compensation, and the assignment of living quarters in the Education Opportunity estates.
