Maybe leftists will find a newfound respect for federalism. Maybe they will start to question the "benign dictatorship" they imagined under Obama, with his phone and pen, issuing executive orders, appropriating sweeping regulatory powers, and engaging in "kinetic military operations". For decades, under both Republicans and Democrats, presidential power has continued to become ever more expansive and federal power more intrusive. I can only hope that our nation will start demanding that Congress actually declare war (when appropriate) and stop tacitly letting Presidents have that power and following up with a rubber stamp. If you look back on these international agreements and deals, it is clear the these are not, and should not, be accepted as binding until the Senate, the elected representatives of the People, votes on them.
You know, I can get onboard with that, sort of (lol)..though I'd include the rightists and leftists, a communal;
"oh, that's why we shouldn't do that....my bad" -moment.
Churchill put it better.
Quote:You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
