"This decision was made by our elected officials. We are a Republic.
Do you have a problem with that?"
I do, I have a problem with any elected official doing what he or she wants to do in violation of the Law. If it had been done properly, there would be no reason for the Congress to hold hearings. It seems to me that the only ones who have any idea of this is the administration.
Do you oppose our Representative form of government and favor a true Democracy?
