Get a law degree, become a supreme court justice, and maybe your fringe opinion will means something.
**********************

My "fringe opinion" already has more weight than a judge's opinion of law.

I an a juror; I decide what the law means.

A judge merely presides over the courtroom while I make my decision.

Really? Tell me more about how the Constitution authorizes juries, not the federal court, to decide the constitutionality of laws. Or is the constitution just important when it serves your desires exodus?

Fortunately you are wrong. That said, President Bush the elder did not invoke the United Nations as the new world order. It was a stupid remark and should have never been uttered...everyone seems to forget that Hitler had a thing about new world order as well. It was equally as dumb a remark as that by Henry Kissinger and his 'defining moment' and 'fundamental change' hogwash.

Now, however, President Bush the younger is quite correct that this is a new game and the old rules don't apply and even without the threat of nuclear annihilation the CIC must have the ability to order retaliation against terrorists attacks without pussy footing around with congressional poohbahs and poopers.

Now, with that said, are you aware of how many Native Americans were slaughtered without a declaration of war by Congress? Do you know under what authority Colonel Custer galloped into a trap?

Are you aware that United Fruit declared war more often than Congress?

CIC means taking charge and kicking ass. President Bush is doing just that...at great risk to his own popularity and safety...God bless him and all who serve.
