That is what happens when it is too huge to send as a fax ........

ever notice how laws in the 18th and 19th Century could fit on a few pages at most?

Auto-pen sounds like the technological version of "rubber stamp" to me.

constitutional or unconstitutional?

constitutional or unconstitutional?

Allegedly it's been previously reviewed and found to be "Constitutional," but that doesn't mean much in today's environment of terrible decisions.

At first this bothered me....until LPG made a comment exposing the possible upside:

I agree, but this could be a good precedent to have the autopen sign tens of thousands if not millions of pardons by Dr. Paul. Then they'll declare it unconstitutional.

Now THAT would be a nice use of the autopen.

John Hancock would not have approved the use of the autopen.

Autopen? At the rate we're going we might as well have an Auto President.

Watson for 2012!!
