Since the Border Patrol may some day be used to abused Civil Liberties by a Future Administration, we must abolish it. Ditto here the US Military. U
An utterly absurd nonsensical argument
What if, What if, What if, can be played all day. It is a sophomoric exercise. BY this logic NOTHING should ever be done because ANYTHING might possibly be abused at some point in the future.
Finally since this is based on the Commander in Chiefs powers to Repel sudden attack, all this handwrining about "Future Administrations" is merely the intellectually weak rationalizations by those who WANT to find any excuse possible to oppose this.
This is an inherent Presidential Power in action. IF you don't like it you will have to admen the US Constitution to change it.
Why didn't the Govt attys argue that, then?
