Has anyone run across this crap yet?

H.J.Res.5 - Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the twenty-second article of amendment, thereby removing the limitation on the number of terms an individual may serve as President.

What in the heck.  Apparently the 22nd Amendment doesn't mean a hill of beans.  Just why what the heck does the 22nd Amendment say?  Lets look...


Amendment 22 - Presidential Term Limits

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. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President, when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

2. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its submission to the States by the Congress.

Ratified 02/27/1951

Why would this bill get sent to Congress 12 days before Brother Obama was sworn in.  Interesting.  This appears mighty hinkey to me.  It looks like they planned on Obama running from now on.  To bad that neither Osama Obama, the Democratic controlled Congress or the Democratic controlled Senate have been worth a dang for this country.  I hope that these coming elections bring servants back into office.  It's not called public service for nothing. 

So here is my speach.  Get out there and find out about your candidates.  And vote for the ones that need to be there.  Regardless of political affiliation.  Vote for people that want to uphold the Constitution not repeal Amendments that are kind of important.  The founding fathers knew what they were doing when they wrote this stuff.
