Normally the bills passed by the House are the same as the ones passed by the Senate, and vice versa. When there are differences a conference committee reconciles such variances before submission to the President for final approval.<BR/><BR/>Unlike you I did not sleep though civics class *phbbt*Sir Hailstonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16301073859882785758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-25604524235914731702007-09-27T18:29:00.001-05:002007-09-27T18:29:00.001-05:00It looks like someone slept a little too often in grammar class, especially when the use of commas was discussed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-58785868924940392232007-09-27T18:29:00.000-05:002007-09-27T18:29:00.000-05:00sir hailstone seems to show his lack of knowledge about the congressional procedures and what is going on.....hint....Julia Carson is in the house not in the senate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-14641639686973077392007-09-27T17:27:00.000-05:002007-09-27T17:27:00.000-05:00Anonymous Coward 5:18 - Reread my post.
