Being Canadian myself I'm not well versed in what the President does and does not require congressional approval for. Well, it's merely the topic of this thread, so feel free to make use of the resources available. I know enough to see there are two options, he either requires congressional approva...

Joseph, I have been following this for a while. What I take away is 1. Either the language barrier is currently insurmountable. 2. You do not know what you are talking about. And I must say your attitude doesn't help. You might be able to get away with that here (many do) if your English was better...

President Bush sought and got Congressional approval. President Obama's actions against Libya are unilateral from the perspective of the separation of powers listed in the Constitution and further clarified in the War Powers Resolution. Being Canadian myself I'm not well versed in what the Presiden...

By unilaterally going to war against Libya, Obama is bringing America closer to the imperial presidency than Bush ever did. By just exactly what measure is participation in a UN approved action in Libya unilateral action and Bush's war in Iraq NOT unilateral? I support both actions for the record. ...

I don't believe a Gold based currency can be wrecked to nothing. I believe a Fiat based currency can. The economic wreckage of a Gold based currency can cause severe economic distress. The Economic wreckage of a fiat based currency can put an economy back to the barter system. (stone age.) Among th...

If you wreck the economy, Gold won't be worth anything either. You can't eat it. What the Keynesians have done/are doing isn't a clever plot. It is the most colossal folly. But you don't need a fiat based currency to wreck the economy, people can, and did wreck economies with gold backed currencies...

And there's the rub. The coins would only be legal tender for their face value, and at $1,400/ ounce, a twenty dollar gold piece would be SERIOUSLY undervalued. States cannot coin their own money either. That is expressly forbidden by the U.S. Constitution. It appears as if the Keynesians have made...

You can dismiss those pictures if you like, but they are far more consistent with the story of Obama which has been uncovered than is that "anchor baby" birth certificate, of which we may never see the original. And this is your insanity in a nutshell. You don't accept a certified copy of birth cer...

It took over two years (and a man had to go to prison) before Obama finally produced SOMETHING that resembles a birth certificate. Had he produced this in the first place, no one would have bothered digging and there never would have been a "birther" issue. 13 pages of this thread disagree with you...

Well, if not yet as bad as Chernobyl According to official reports. If you trust those I have 3 slightly used nuclear reactors on offer. As my reference I think made clear, I'd gladly take them in exchange for a slightly harder used reactor during 80's. Under pretty much any other condition, I very...

If I wasn't the innocent fellow that I am, I'd have suggested that the funny 'TXE' instead of 'THE' is a distraction technique to get people talking about the wrong defect of the reproduction at the top, and distract them from the obvious defect. Very cunning... if I were to believe such a thing! N...

I'm having troubles finding current numbers, but for the most part the release of I-131 seems to be estimated at a tenth of what Chernobyl released. Do you have different sources, or are you just making future projections assuming that the won't entomb the cores and just keep pumping in water that ...

Worse than Chernobyl. Now, I admit I haven't been following that closely lately, but really? By what measure? Overall release of radioactivity? Immediate or projected deaths? Financial cleanup costs? It sounded like the current assessment was core breach, quite likely on all 3 damaged reactors. Tha...
