Looks like somebody finally decided what side his bread was buttered on.
Well I sure hope so.
It would be easier and quicker to do the following:
A letter to your senators and representatives:
Dear _______________, it has become increasingly obvious that the president intends to use the power of the MANY governmental agencies to bypass the will of the people and Congress. For that reason, it is imperative for Congress to reclaim the power it has abdicated to the executive branch. I propose a simple amendment that be put in EVERY bill voted on by Congress until it passes. The wording is as similar to the following:
“No government agency, organization, or entity created by Congress in the past or future shall have legislative or judicial powers. For the purpose of this amendment, “legislative power” shall be construed to mean the making of any rule violation of which renders a citizen, legal entity, corporation, or company of any state or the United States to imprisonment, fine, excessive or punitive fee, or other punishment. “Judicial power” shall be construed to mean, the holding of any evidentiary hearing not presided over by an Article III court or the issuance of findings which result in imprisonment, fine, or punishment of a citizen, legal entity, corporation, or company of any state or the United States.
Under this law, all current rules implemented by any government agency, organization, or entity created by Congress that has legislative or judiciary powers as defined above will become null and void five years from the date of passage unless approved by normal constitutional means.”
Please consider this carefully.
Sincerely, _____________
Could this man be concerned with the cost of replacing his front door?
Upton is a RINO’s RINO.
He was against light bulbs before he was for him.
Hopefully with some some clever redistricting here in MI not only can we send say Dingell to the politcal grave, but toss out a couple other thieves like Upton and rat Peters.
Upton, with his new position makes Boehner look weak.
Really weak.
To have Upton ahead of this committee is a travesty, and succumbs Boehner to a coward.
How is this a done deal? Isn't there a vote among republicans for the committee chairs at the start of the new congress?
It’s been like domino’s. Many of the government agencies are now making up their own laws and rules, even though they can’t and regardless of what the Constitution says. They’ve gone rouge. It’s time to defund every single one of them.
The Republicans are going to have to get behind this guy from day one and continue the mantra, day in and day out, that the Obama EPA is killing jobs and to protect Americans drastic action needs to be taken against the EPA from usurping powers meant for congress.
If the Republicans only speak out one at a time for this, or even worse pussy out as usual and not speak out at all, then it will be a coup for the Liberals.

What we are seeing is the use of lawsuit settlement agreements to create humongous programs without public scrutiny, hearing or environmental review. That is what is happening right now with the Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement and removal of the four Klamath Dams. The negotiations included environmental groups, fishing groups and tribes but not the affected public. The settlement agreement among them sets up a “coucil” of the same bozos as the planning authority for the region. Again, local people are not invited to the table, not even the people who actually live around the dam reservoirs.
Siskiyou recently had an advisory measure on the ballot and more than 85% of the voters did not want the dams removed.
2011 should be a fun event to see how Obama&Co. will try to obtain more of it’s unconstitutional power grab.
Cancel the legislation against the incadescent light bulbs, also, please.
It is beyond stupid.
Let that be a choice-—not a mandate.
We need to see layoffs, salary cuts and pension renegotiation.
Oh, and all health plans must be switched to 0Care.
We have to show these people some support. Upton, Issa, Bachmann and Flake need to hear from us with strong support to let them know they are not standing alone.
