The Imperial Presidency III

The imperial presidency is the result of many causes. First of all there is the people. When Bill Clinton got caught doing things that no president should be doing, the people said, "Oh no, what a president does in his private life is no ones business". Many things that a president does in his private life affect the whole country. What a president does in his private life also reflects on how he will handle the country. If a man is a crook in private life, that is what he will be as president. The supporters of G.W. Bush are the same, the man can do no wrong. These men are made heros for things that the average American would go to jail for. The media is also to blame. If a president is going along with the one world powers, the media does a lot of covering up for them. They only report on what they are told by those powers, that they are allowed to report on. Every president, starting with FDR, with the exception of Ronald Reagan has been hand-picked by the one world power group. While Reagan managed to get elected in spite of these power elite, they made sure that the vice-president and all advisors were one worlders. R.R., coming from Hollywood, knew enough about the media and was a good enough orator to get many of his points out to the American people. Congress is another great enabler of the imperial presidency. They have given up more and more of their constitutional powers. While some say that congress took away powers after the Nixon fiasco, I do not really agree. They still allow a president to go to war without declaring it. They still allow presidents to run much of the country by executive orders. Executive orders have always been a part of the presidency, but since Bill Clinton they have become a way of life for the imperial presidency. Many of thes executive orders have to do with treaties. A treaty must be signed and then ratified by the senate. This is the process set down in the constitution. We now have executive orders on the books instructing federal agencies to honor treaties that have never been ratified. This is totally illegal. We have executive orders allowing wire taps and spying on Americans without a court order. This is totally illegal and unconstitutional. Yet congress, who could vote to rescind these orders does nothing. Congress and the media have both known about the orders for the wire taps and spying for some time and have done nothing. They have kept the story under wraps at the request of a fasciunist imperial president. They should all be calling for G.W.'s impeachment, instead they are aiding and abeting him. I went into the White House web site on which it supposedly lists all executive orders. The orders are listed by date and order number. The problem was that many numbers are not listed and other orders are to amend previous orders with the previous order not listed. The whole web site is a smoke screen to make people believe that what is being done is open and honest. The executive order allowing eaves dropping on American citizens was never on that site. The government is supposed to be "BY" the people and "FOR" the people, not by the president for his power. Any time the media and the congress give a president a pass on doing something as unconstitutional as eaves dropping and spying on American citizens, they are asking for trouble. What will be the next thing he or the next imperial president asks for? To take away all guns? To curtail what little freedom of speech we still have? It seems that all a president has to do is to tell congress and the media that it for the safety of the country and they will go along with it. Does this remind anyone besides me about the way Hitler took power? The imperial presidency is just another step in the fasciunists take-over of this country.
