I wonder exactly where our country is going, it doesn't matter whether a Democrat or a Republican is in power, it's the persuasion of the legal council that is on board "at the second", they change almost as quickly as a person changes his socks.
For most of us, the term "executive power" can usually be equated to our boss or supervisor.....or in some cases, a spouse. Being "lorded" over is a simple fact of life for many in the work place. Many of us use Kelly's Corner Tavern after hours, as a way of keeping our sanity.
Mostly executive power is some suit exercising his muscle in some sort of worker dispute and almost forcing his will on a group of workers, either because he figures what he is doing is good for the company, or that he simply doesn't give a crap and "Roger ram jets" his agenda on a group of workers.
When the president of the United States goes about his business in this manner, the "Roger ram jet," it effects not a group of people, or a single factory, or company policy, when the president "pushes" something onto either the people or a particular branch of government, millions of people are impacted.
The United States governmental practices and procedures are all about checks and balances, about the left and right, about Democrats, Republicans and whatever fringe voice can be heard. It's about differing view-points, competing for their opinions to be heard.
At the end of the day, when you have all of these opinions in a bowl, all of those folks involved, the Democrats, Republicans and whoever else is sitting around the table then debate, and hopefully pick the best ideas for our country, and hammer out laws, rules and regulations to operate what our country is, what it does and in which direction it will go.
But when a president and his people don't like the outcome of the Democrats and Republicans and those independents involved, through council, they devise tactics to override what has been decided, which way the country is going and ultimately how the actions affect us.
WE ARE CLOSE TO A MONARCHY:
Over the years, presidents have attempted to consolidate power into the executive branch of the government. When did this consolidation effort start? And whichever party, Democratic or Republican, has been responsible is hard to say and unimportant.
Signing statements and czar appointments are effective ways of controlling government, compressing it so that only a few people actually have a voice in what actions are initiated and placed into effect.
Congress has habitually disliked a presidential appointee to "head up" a specific agency, usually because that person has the powers closely resembling a Czar, with special powers and usually answerable only to the president.
Vacation appointees are another way that a president can consolidate power; these are done when the Congress and Senate are on a break, back home with their constituents, listening to the voice of their people. If you believe all that, I have ocean front property in Arizona.
Long story short, a sitting president has never saw a power that he didn't want, and has never, never given back a power that his predecessor acquired. It's simply un-American, a practice that is not done, and anyways, who in his right mind would do so?
A signing statement ranks right up there with one of the presidents most powerful weapon against legislation that has passed that he, "the president" doesn't like. A signing statement can be used to comment on the legislation, whether it's good or bad, and if it is designed to address a certain situation.
Usually a signing statement is used to point out possible unconstitutional aspects of a bill, and kind of give notice that the president will not allow the law to be executed.
THE TIMES WE LIVE IN:
The time that we live in is unique, misconceptions run high and political separatism is probably the biggest problem that the United States faces today. The left, the right, the liberal, conservative and all the rest can't seem to get together, sit down and "talk."
I was talking to a woman at an airport, several years ago, and somehow the conversation got around to politics. She said that she would never trust a liberal, I asked her way and she said, "Because they're all sex deviates, it's a well known fact."
I looked at this poor little mouse of a women, looked deeply into her eyes with my liberal eyes, I looked her up and down and said without hesitation, "Honey, you don't have to worry about a single little thing, you can rest easy at night, the liberal fiends won't touch you."
The divides that we live in are unprecedented, class distinction, you've got to be kidding, and it’s the reds against the blues and the greens against the yellows. Each color has its own agenda, and the rest can kiss butt.
The powers that be, "those folks that have been elected to do the business of government" don't look at us as the bosses, rather numbers and customers. Go to the D.M.V. sometime, you get a number, and are treated as a customer.
I’ve said it before and I'll say it again, "there is no Fed," we are the "Fed" without us there would be no "Fed" just a bunch of elected fools, running around looking and acting like a bunch of whores, and that's from the President on down to the local dog catcher.
These people work for us.....so we'd better get together, formulate a plan and get on with it, because once we are a monarchy, freedom is long gone, never to be retrieved.
