>>Go back and read the rest of what I wrote (or did I exhaust your vocabulary?)...You say the campaign finance law is unconstitutional. How do you know? That's your opinion. But who gave you the right to declare what laws are constitutional and which are not? In fact, who gave the President the authority to declare what bills are constitutional and which are not? Seems to me the Constitution you claim to respect gives that authority to the judiciary. I had this debate with someone on FR when the bill was signed, and he actually said that a President had the authority to ignore whatever LAWS(!) he thought were unconstitutional. It seems that kind of exercise of power is called "dictatorship."<<

You're beautiful when you're angry. HA!

Please explain to me, O Enlightened One, where it says the president MUST sign any bill that he disagrees with; that his hands are tied? Please explain this concept to me.

GWB decried CFR on the campaign trail, then made jokes to the press about how quickly he would sign it.

But I guess he had no choice. Am I to understand that this is what you're saying?

GWB decried CFR on the campaign trail,

I'm assuming you can provide links or documentation to where President Bush decried CFR on the campaign trail? I sure like to see them and just what he said while decrying CFR. I know you wouldn't post statements like that without backup.

Nowhere does it say that a President must sign what bills he disagrees with. But his signing of the CFR was a stroke of genius because he knows the likelihood is that it will be overturned, and it shuts up McCain for the time being.

You know, you're so exercised about CFR that I'd be interested to know how much soft money you contribute to parties at the end of campaigns. It must be huge for the level of emotion you've displayed.
