It looks like a cabal of Republicans including Steny Hoyer and Jim "
Bite my Gavel" Sensenbrenner are sponsoring
H.J. Res 214. This resolution, introduced on February 17th of this year, is described as:
Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the 22nd amendment to the Constitution.
For those that don't know:
The 22nd Amendment, Section 1. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
More below the fold:
This fascist cabal is planning on making sure that they don't have to worry about being voted out of power, ever.
I don't know what else to write about this outrage - I know normally this type of amendment would take a 2/3 majority approval of both houses, and a 3/4th approval of the states, but is there any way that this could be railroaded through during a national crisis, possibly by executive order?
