Actually, no. Stare decisis (legal precedent as a binding force in law) is a common law concept that relates only to the courts. It has nothing to do with Congress, and no past act by the Senate holds any binding precedence whatsoever on any future act by them.


A fascinating (if wildly improbable) speculation.


Nope. The Constitution demands otherwise.

This simply seems like too much of a loophole.

possibly. it will be interesting to see the MCCP's financial statement once zullo makes it public ( as he's legally required to do ).


in other birther news:

we have a fight going on between "birther queen" orly taitz and "presidential candidate" cody judy. cody is claiming that congress will start hearings and possibly impeachment in january over obama's eligibility. orly claims this is a hoax:

P&E Exclusive: Cody Judy Responds To “Hoax” Claim On Impeachment Hearing - Birther Report: Obama Release Your Records


if you've ever wondered who would win in a fight between an insane bear and an incompetent gorilla, this may answer that question.

this is actually covered under the de facto officer doctrine.

That would be incorrect.

The bill of rights has one provision that has been used more than once.

For some reason you seem to think or have been programed to think, that the MCCP, is a for profit organization.

Let me educate you and many others. They are a total volunteer group, with no DBA. It is all out of the pockets of the volunteers.
There is no income.

nope, i completely understand that they are a 501(c)(3) exempt organization (a charity that doesn’t pay taxes and who can accept tax-deductible contributions) who are required to file a form 990

Cold Case Posse referred to IRS for failure to file Form 990 | Obama Conspiracy TheoriesObama Conspiracy Theories

zullo has still yet to file a 990.

the MCCCP has actively sought out, and received, donations outside of their own volunteers. there absolutely is income.

Then you'd best get started on the Constitutional Amendment necessary to close it.

That's the problem. The MCCCP apparently has not been keeping any books. They have filed none of the required financial reports, they have been unable to provide any as the result of FOIA requests, and the Sheriff's Departments says they have no financial oversight over the Posse whatsoever. All in all, a bit of a pickle, I'd say.

No. It doesn't.

But your advocacy of presidential assassination is noted.
