All emphasis and highlighting added by ed.

Sen. Mike Lee, Utah:

"So from the surface it will still look like the conference process is happening, is unfolding in the manner in which it is supposed to, but beneath the surface we know that all of this has already been prearranged, precooked, predetermined by a select few Members of Congress working behind closed doors free from scrutiny, and we know this vote was scheduled on extremely short notice so it would be difficult, if not impossible, for the rest of us to influence the substance of the conference report through motions to instruct."
 
THIS REAUTHORIZATION OF NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND (ESEA) LEGISLATION IS NOT JUST ABOUT EDUCATION!!!
 
 
 
HAVE YOU CALLED YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS TO DEMAND THEY VOTE NO ON THIS BILL?  202-224-3121.
 
Latest verbatim text (proof), out of their own mouths, regarding backroom dealings to ram through the most unconstitutional piece of legislation ever crafted which will forever change the America we love and the futures of our children and all Americans birth through death. Backroom dealings have been going on since last July when Rep. John Kline et al, after clock for voting time had stopped, managed to get the additional five votes needed for passage.
 
And in July when Sen. Alexander appeared to pull the same curious, but not as blatant, maneuver in order to get enough votes for passage.

LATEST INFO:
 
The following quotes are found on pages 8031-8033. 
 
Sen. Lamar Alexander, Tennessee:
 
" Since the Senate passed its bill and the House passed its bill, the Senator from Washington and I have been meeting with our counterparts, the chairman and ranking member of the House education committee. Our staffs have been talking, and we have been trying to take the two bills, which are very similar, and see if we could suggest to the conference a way that we could get a result. We don’t have the result because we haven’t had a meeting of the conference. We can’t have a meeting of the conference until the leaders are allowed to appoint the Members of the conference."
 
JUST LIKE LEE SAYS BELOW...PRECOOKED AND PREDETERMINED?
 
Senator Lee:
 
"So from the surface it will still look like the conference process is happening, is unfolding in the manner in which it is supposed to, but beneath the surface we know that all of this has already been prearranged, precooked, predetermined by a select few Members of Congress working behind closed doors free from scrutiny, and we know this vote was scheduled on extremely short notice so it would be difficult, if not impossible, for the rest of us to influence the substance of the conference report through motions to instruct."
 
Senator Alexander:
 
"Mr. President, as the Senator from Utah knows, that is the case. I said that to him yesterday and I just said it on the floor. We hope to complete our work this week.  We may or we may not, but the bill will be out for at least a week for Members of this body to consider it."
 
Just "Members of this body..."?
 

What about the American people who elected the "members of this body"?

 

A WEEK FOR LEGISLATORS AND CITIZENS TO READ A BILL THAT IS PROBABLY A THOUSAND PAGES?  
 
Marcus Tullius Cicero, (106-43 B.C.) Roman Statesman, Philosopher and Orator:
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
