Glenn Beck & "Joe" the "Plumber" are concerned about Hillary holding two offices at once.
:wtf: ?!?!

=====

Glenn: … I will tell you this in talking to one of my guys who's deep in the Constitution, he's saying that she can't have two offices. That's the problem. She can't occupy the two offices and then two different branches, but it's kind of iffy on that. It's not really clear. And if she gets rid of her office, then it should be fine. But she couldn't be a senator and Secretary of State. That's the real problem there.

Joe: Oh, yeah.

Glenn: You would still have a problem with that?

Joe the Plumber: No, I wouldn't. You know, I have no problem with her being — well, I don't want to say that. I mean, you know, will ultimately she become Secretary of State? I don't question that. It's just the fact that I believe I was watching Hannity and Colmes. You know, they had one of their guys on there saying that they will get around it and it will be okay. That's the problem I have is the fact that, you know, if the Constitution gets in the way, they will have a lawyer or judge get around it. Kind of like God in their country. Gosh, it's hard following them, we'll get around it. We'll just take this part of the Bible out because it's hard. They are always looking to get around something, you know? Life is not easy, and to be a good person you've got to work hard at it. And people just want to kind of get around it and, you know, it's just not — that's not the moral fiber that this country was built on.

4. Actually, she could hold that office until she is confirmed by the Senate...
But usually Senators nominated for cabinet positions resign in the first week of January.

3. "one of my guys who's deep in the Constitution" = an intern who has read it

Beck is such a fucking idiot. The constitution is not like the Book of Mormon where you would have to spend a couple of hundred hours to figure out what the hell its about - just open it up and read it. what an idiot.

12. I don't know what bothers me more.
1) The fact that they had this conversation.

2) The fact that Joe the Attention Whore was asked his opinion in the MSM on a question about the national government.

13. The idiot doesn't even understand what he watched on da TeeVee

The question isn't about her being both Sec. of State and a Senator, it's over her taking a job that the salary was raised during her term in office. The probable conversation on H & C would be the way around that, which is that she take the old salary for the position.

Looks like it is hard for him to "follow them."

15. Joe is a bloody idiot
He's never read the US Constitution, the bible or probably a plumbing manual yet he's the republicans 'go to guy' for all three.

19. Somewhere out there
The world's Stupidest Choir is getting preached to.

I'd spell it all out in simple terms, but I doubt it would help any.
