hmaly,

re:ted

It's in there hmaly, you just aren't looking hard enough.

It's between the part where a woman has the right to kill unborn children and the right of the lazy to be fed by the hard working American taxpayers.

Funny how liberals can read that but not see the part about Americans have the right to gun ownership.

:)

Steve

Ted Re...Section 2. The President shall be commander in chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the militia of the several states, when called into the actual service of the United States; he may require the opinion, in writing, of the principal officer in each of the executive departments, upon any subject relating to the duties of their respective offices, and he shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment.

That's very nice, and I didn't know about the exact wording of that part concerning the presidents control in times of war over the services. However, why do you feel that means he has control over any or both houses of congress, or even members of his party. Show me that link and I will believe you.


I see what the problem is.........you need to have it spelled out for you in very specific detail.

As I said several posts earlier, Bush is "the Commander in Chief of the US and the GOP". What I should have said so that there would be no confusion for you is that Mr Bush is "the Commander in Chief of the US and the figurative Commander in Chief of the GOP".

In an effort to prevent any more posts on this subject, let me explain that a "figurative Commander in Chief" does not mean there is such a title in reality but rather the the title is understood. Furthermore, you don't have to post back if you don't agree that Bush is a figurative C in C of the GOP.......I understand that you all think he's quite independent of the party and is not considered even their figurative head.

I might point of if that's all well and true, then Mr. Bush may not be the masterful leader that some of you think he is.
