Sunny,
Can you keep the original thread up to date so we can keep ringing those offices, since the more cosponsors the better? Thank you for all you ahve done on this.
I would like to be optimistic but I don't trust most of them one iota, including Mr. Pragmatist, Sheriff Dave Reichert. Let's keep it up and get ourselves some insurance by contacting recalcitrant reps and senators and collecting those petition signatures.
yesliberty,
sorry, i'm confused - which original thread?

The one with the stats
The update one with all of those who are/are not cosponsoring HR1207, and the daily "victims" list, etc. :-)
you mean the democratic list of shame?
and the republican list of shame? - which is done. they all signed.
cactus 1010 does those. i just have the links on my HR 1207 thread.
the daily victims - i don't do that. liberty_mike does it.

Are you sure 290 is
Are you sure 290 is veto-proof? Ron Paul said it himself - Obama WILL veto this bill. So it would need to be veto-proof to pass.
yes. and i think he can try but
will not be able to pull it off.
altho obama, frank, pelosi and reid are a cause for concern.
what i need to know is what power pelosi and frank actually have now.
anyone?

"Bills in the House can only be released from committee without a proper committee vote by a discharge petition signed by a majority of the House membership (218 members)."
In the House, most bills go to the Rules committee before reaching the floor. The committee adopts rules that will govern the procedures under which the bill will be considered by the House. A "closed rule" sets strict time limits on debate and forbids the introduction of amendments. These rules can have a major impact on whether the bill passes. The rules committee can be bypassed in three ways: 1) members can move rules to be suspended (requires 2/3 vote)2) a discharge petition can be filed 3) the House can use a Calendar Wednesday procedure.
If the President vetoes the bill it is sent back to Congress with a note listing his/her reasons. The chamber that originated the legislation can attempt to override the veto by a vote of two-thirds of those present. If the veto of the bill is overridden in both chambers then it becomes law.

Congratulations to all:

beesting
Gratz to all involved...
I think they may pass this one simply to stop the phone calls! Will this allow a vote on the bill itself, or can it still be watered down and out into an amnesty/destroy small business bill?

That calls for a beer!
I know it's before 12, but this is a proud day for us. Yes us, DailyPaul is what made me become an activist. the Dailypaul is the reason that I was calling Congress almost everyday.
The DailyPaul is the reason my fax number is probably on a "naughty list"
You guys are amazing!
I'll bet the march on the capitol
And all the hell raising at the town halls had a little to do with this. I'm just surprised it took this long. If these people aren't all controlled to some extent what in the hell are they thinking about ?
Just one last kick in the nuts, then a final deathblow
Happening on the same day...
Not only the release of the book END THE FED, but also the announcement of the hearing too right?
Watch the film "THX1138" online for a glimpse into the future.

Can Nancy Pelosi Stop This?

Listen up. This would not happen if the…
… Powers that Be (P.T.B.) did not want it to happen. The Fed is totally bankrupt and is no longer a sustainable model. The P.T.B. WILL allow the Fed to shut down, but will NEVER allow the audit (because THAT will show the corruption). The way I see it, is when the Fed shuts down all hell will break loose and the People (and Ron Paul) will be blamed for it (everything was just peachy when the Fed was in charge, don't ya' know. Now look what you idiots did.). After the final nail is driven into the USA economic coffin there will be wailing, tearing of cloths and gnashing of teeth by the populace. When the P.T.B. have determined that their slaves have suffered enough, the Fed will be replaced with something far, far worse. As long as people are FORCED to accept and use the money created by the world banksters, we will NEVER be free.
Nothing in government happens or is allowed to happen by accident. That, is an undisputed fact.
This post is not intended to toss a turd into the End The Fed punchbowl. It is to force all of you to think a bit and see reality. The NWO/Illuminati are hardly stupid. They are least ten steps ahead of us and are very, very patient. Do you think for one second that this contingency was not well thought out and planned? Geeze!
