Agreed. We reminded Government who's in charge, just three months past, in November.
The People have only the Power to bestow Power, not to exercise the Power bestowed; so-called Freedom and Liberty do not extend beyond that Power to bestow.
No, We only exercised our RIGHT to Vote, we did not exercise our Power over our Government. Hopefully that will occur soon.
Please show with CREDIBLE source material, where WE the Citizens of the United States gave additional Authority to our Government that is not contained within the Constitution? Oh, I forgot.. you don't understand what credible even means to know what might or might not be credible!
Just as one example of an overreach of authority. I've read all of the many Amendments that have passed, and I do not see where we have granted power to our President to Legislate via Executive Order!
In fact, Article 1 Section 1 of our US Constitution is fairly clear on who has the authority to Legislate! Why don't you read it!
http://www.usconstitution.net/xconst.html
All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
I do not see where it mentions that the #1 MDI has any such authority! There is not an amendment that grants him that authority! Yet he cows the elected Officials who are supposed to legislate by threatening to use EO's to legislate!
If they believe he can do it, then they are little more than illiterate sheeple who can not read for themselves, to know for themselves that he has no such authority, and should not be in a position of being able to operate our Government in any way, shape, or form as they really have no clue!
Knowing your past arguments, and apparent mindset, you would never be able to comprehend how exercising a right to vote is nothing close to telling our Government that they work for us.
It is people like you, who cause our Politicians to believe that they actually have ultimate power over the Whole United States and not just exclusive authority over the National Seat of Government (District of Columbia).
If you feel yourself to be a resident of the District of Columbia, then I would agree, that Congress has 100% authority over your life!
I am presently a resident of Washington State, and our US Congress, as well as our Federal Government has little authority over me.
