Who does congress think they are, the Politburo or the Supreme Soviet?

Question

They have no right to see the Executive branches private papers.

Go get em Georgie!!

This gonzalez thing is pathetic

Answer 1

I wonder if the whining libs had the same whine when the Clintons claimed executive privilege again and again, including the case of Henry G. Cisneros, whom Clinton pardoned on his final day in office.

Answer 2

Yes, they have an absolute right to see the President's papers. By law, the President must preserve his papers and anything regarding governmental decisions. Congress has oversight over Presidential procedures, even though you would never guess it from what they have done these past six years.

Congress is not an arm of the presidency, nor should it just rubber stamp his decisions. They are a governmental entity, completely separate from the presidency and, if they wish, they can even instigate legislation that overrides Supreme Court decisions.

Congress is a very powerful organization. They can subpoena papers, take the President to court, and insist that Constitutional law be followed. And let's hope they do!

George Bush is not the Decider! Thomas Jefferson and his fellow signers of the Constitution were the Deciders! Remember that, everyone!

Answer 3

This congress is more concerned in the witch hunt they told the libs they wouldn't have. There has been no illegal doings in the firing of federal attorneys. The left wing wants to create that there was. Hopefully the next Republican Pres. fires them all with in days of taking office in 2009.

Answer 4

Yes they do. There's a little something, it's called Checks and Balances. Now I know you may not have heard of it because it hasn't really existed since 2000 but keep your ears open for it because it's making a comeback.

Answer 5

Since Nixon and Clinton have both been served and obeyed congressional subpoena - I don't see yer problem?
Or is George Bush claiming some "special" powers never before used?

Answer 6

You just gotta look at it from the dem's point of view. When they go hunting and fail to snag the biggest buck around, any little gnat will do.

Answer 7

You must understand that there are two standards and the Dems want them to change when they are not in the White House.

Answer 8

Whats there to hide, there will be a tell-all book in the future.

Answer 9

Because you have comrade Nancy and comrade harry, waiting in the shadows.

Answer 10

Paid servants of Nazi Israel - Nodwell.

WHO IS THE US CONGRESS LISTENING TO?

So, the US Congress isn't listening to the people. They are listening to someone who WANTS more war.

Well, Israel certainly wants war! But that is Israel. Why would the US Congress, which supposedly exists to serve the will of the AMERICAN people, be obeying the will of Israel?

Well, maybe because Israel's lobbying/spying organization, AIPAC, is PAYING THEM TO!

You heard me. Members of AIPAC, the organization suspected of spying for Israel, donate vast sums of money to the members of US Congress. And the US Congress has sold our young men and women in uniform to go off and fight and die in wars Israel has created.

So, here is what you need to do. You need to call all of your congressional representatives and tell them they can either work for AIPAC, or they can work for you, but you will not tolerate a Congress that accepts money from suspected spies of a foreign government and then quite obviously proceeds to serve the will of that government. Tell them that not only will you never again vote for any Congressman that accepts money from Israeli agents but that you intend to work for and support their opposition next election. Tell them better no government at all than a government that serves a foreign power.

Get angry.

Who is Congress listening to? It is time to make certain Congress listens to you!
