By virtue of that process I will "deem" that all my bills have therefore

Hell, if it works for Nancy, et al ...

A "deeming resolution" is perhaps a scuzzy, gutless approach to legislation.
So it shouldn't be surprising that the Republicans used it 36 times in 2005
qnd 2006 when they controlled the House, and Democrats used it 49 times in
2007 and 2008. It's interesting that now, when it concerns a very high
profile piece of legislation. it's painted as a new "unconstitutional"
flaunting of the rules. As if any of them had any regard for rules and
fairness in the first place, there's an agenda in Congress, and it ain't
aimed at doing what's best for me and you.

You're preaching to choir ... but that's not a bad thing.
