Ethical Subrogation is a fascinating topic at least as it is discussed by
Kevin DrumThe part which really informed me is the discussion of "managers' amemendments"
It was added surreptitiously, just prior to the House floor debate as part of a Manager’s Amendment. The House Rules allow this, if a Manager’s Amendment is blessed by the Rules Committee
aahhhhhh so thats how Rep Blunt tried to sneak an amendment favorable to Phillip Morris into the homeland security bill. The idea that a bill can be changed without public discussion of the amendment either in committee or on the floor still shocks me. How naive. Of course I should have known that the rules are what the rules committee says the rules are and that the current rules committee is for sale.
