69. What happens if I don't?!?
And while we're on the subject, what happens if Congress decides not to follow any law? Will they be arrested? What does this "anarchy" look like? Tanks in the streets? Dog and cats, sleeping together?

But since you like reading, perhaps you'll read us the part that requires Congress to finish the counting (not vote taking) on that day?

Or the part that denies the presiding officer the regular authority to recognize speakers, or forces the chair to limit their time?

Or the part that exempts this required session from regular quorum requirements? Or the procedure by which a quorum is produced by force? Does Tom Delay use Homeland Security to track down planes again?

Blind adherence to "deadlines" sounds more like fascism than anarchy, no?
