Theoretically, what I could see happening is that the SC would overturn it, saying an amendment would be necessary.

That would be, either the SC would basically lose all power and thus Judicial and Executive would probably merge, OR the SC would hold those in the House voting against the ruling in contempt and try them for treason.

That is very theoretical, and worse case scenario. I firmly believe that this won't go anywhere. And it may be the true wake up call to people to see how badly they need to start paying attention and voting.

Even with Limbaugh and company's praises, it'll die a fast death, but the good thing is if Limbaugh or one of them do support it, not only will it show how little they know about government but people who believe every word they say will see how they just say whatever they are told to. So, by all means Mr. Limbaugh please tell us all how great this law is.

It wouldn't matter if 2/3 of Congress voted against it, it would be necessary to pass ammend the Constitution itself which would require 2/3 of Congress and 2/3 of the States, which would be very unlikely to happen.
