Supreme court is gonna slap that bitch down in 2 seconds.

Congressmen who add little crap riders to unrelated must-pass bills like that need to be executed. Its a form of fraud.

the problem is that it's part of the "Violence Against Women" not something you can just slap down.

Read my more current post on it.. I did some research on it...

Gah... I wish it wasn't.

I know Indiana has line-item veto on the books....

Ever think we can get that in the Federal?

doubtful.. that would be a difference in basic rules meaning a constitutional ammendment... which requires 3/4 vote... most of the lobbiest get things they want passed in by adding line items to other bills. They would freak if that happened...

For state wide it will work well and the state law always outrules the national law.

Yeah, but even if the STATE has no law prohibiting things...

The FED always seems to overrule shit.

And they wonder why our Judicial is all boggered up!

It annoys me when you make posts like this. What is your real name, again?

(yes, this is real -- and this provision will be struck down without any real issue, since parts of laws can be killed without the entire law being tossed).
