" I believe otherwise."

Good for you!

If anyone asks you, maybe you will tell them the same.

I know I do.

To: G.Mason
Almost every session of Congress, someone introduces a bill that says, in effect, that any proposed bill introduced in Congress must specify what section of the Constitution authorizes Congress to enact that piece of legislation. Simply – that Congress acknowledge and promise to obey the Constitutional limits to its own authority. That simple proposition always fails to pass. Since Congress persistently refuses to fulfill its Constitutional duty, what the people of this country needs is some private organization willing to file lawsuits against any federal agency that acts pursuant to unconstitutional congressional legislation. Unfortunately, the “conservative” organizations that already exist seem more interested in pursuing their own specific agendas than in bringing government agencies into court to restore some semblance of Constitutional governance in this country – probably because too many of the judges they would appear before have no more interest in obeying the Constitution than the Executive or Legislative branches.
