And the veto pen sits in the White House. Apparently, it's now rusting away in some old coffee can in the basement.

I think you missed my point. If you dislike CFR, AWB, prescription drugs, etc., why does Congress get a free pass even letting them out of committee, let alone passed by both houses?

You kill cancer early, not when it has had a chance to spread. The President is getting blamed for COngress's failings on social spending issues. Hell even the SCOTUS backed up Congress against the Constitution.

This map has a big, giant x on it where the problem resides, the only difference is it is easier to blame one individual in an influential position than it is to fix the problem by working hard to get Congress populated by people who will uphold the Constitution in the first place.

No, I got your point - I was making my own. As for Congress, the GOP has lost me. I'm now independent. A few good things have been done on their watch, but they've increased the size of the fedgov enormously and there's no one even talking about reducing anything, 'cept maybe Ron Paul.

I'm a Constitutionalist before any political party. I chair an organization called Veterans for Constitutional Restoration. Since the Republican Congress and WH, I have watched our liberties slip away and social spending increase faster than any other time in my political life. While tax cuts are nice and giving the finger to the UN puts a smile on my face, watching the exponential growth and unconstitutional power grabs of the fedgov is depressing. This under REPUBLICAN watch. I miss Newt.
