 <title>The President made himself too powerful</title>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;I totally agree with your post! And if you look at how alot of it happened the president hid many of his new aquisitions of power through many of the huge bills that went through congress. With the bills being 500 pages or more, most of congress does not read it but has it reviewed by someone and they get a short view, and then they vote for the parties point of view. So within many of the bills slammed through congress and also when Clinton was in office, the shift of power now totally contridicts our Constitution. It would not be upheld in Court! So &quot;we the people&quot; need to move forward to put the power in check. Since we are in War, he now has unlimited power being Commander in Chief! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Damage....alot already done, we are a finacially broke country, many countries now going to euro money standard dropping the dollar, China now dumping over a trillion US dollars, Germany is broke, and we have few allies any more. We are hated and laughed at for being so stupid following the our Government as blindly as we do. Damage is done ...now we are going to see what that means for US. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;WE could turn the tide, but &quot;we the people&quot; would need to agree and move towards reclaiming our Constitution and our freedoms. There are more of US than our public servants.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>Despite heavy losses in the November Congressional election and a strong rebuke from the Iraq Study Group, President George W. Bush has made no indication that he intends on ending the violence in Iraq. In fact, the contrary is true: news agencies are now reporting that Bush is pondering a deeper committment to the bloody debacle, boosting troop levels in Iraq by as many as 25,000 troops.

These moves appear to flaunt public opinion, with a new poll for National Public Radio yesterday showing nearly two-thirds of Americans favouring a withdrawal of US forces from Iraq in early 2007 despite the threat to Iraqi stability.</description>
