I've kinda had it with all of the BS

235. Well I hate to break it to you but the military runs on it

In the military they are called orders not decrees and the chain of command is clearly set up by our constitution with the CIC as the president...and it has been that way from the beginning.
Congress cannot order the military, nor can they countermand orders.
So just what legislation created Gitmo and mandated that the military run a prison there?...I want to know when the constitution was change to allow that.
The power the congress has over the military is the power of the purse...If the CIC asks for more money to do something then they can say no....and that is exactly why Obama asked for money to create a new Gitmo in the US, so they could say no and he could wash his hands of his promise to close it...there was no need for a new prison...we got lots of them and they are for profit prisons that would love to skim more money from the governent...and his promise was not to move the prison it was to close it, and do the just thing and give them a speedy trial or let them go...someting that is the foundation of our law.

But if half of the GOP does not like it does that mean they win?...what about the rest of us, don't we have a say at all? By far and away, the majority of people support medicare and SS, but you seem to say that only the majority of the GOP counts and if they say no we have to suck it up.
WTF is that, but rule by the minority...is that the reality you are talking about?...and Obama has to go along with it?...and we have to accept it too because we love Obama and must defend him from all critisizem?...that is some fucked up reality.
