remember, he has as much a reason to serve the people as Congress does. Congress does not have a constitutional duty to do foreign policy. It is best for all concerned if the Executive and Legislative work this out without creating new precedents. The resolution does this. It is a communication, a warning, and a first step that the legislative will make policy in relation to iraq, that they have the numbers to do so, and the constitutional authority to affect that policy through fiscal restrictions.

It is wise on their part and shows greater constitutional awareness from the Democratic leadership than the Republican Executive and former-Legislative leadership.

Beccaria considers that punishment and criminality must be determined by the harm that is done to society as a whole. There is no more harm that can be done to society by an action other than unconstitutional behaviour from the executive/legislative. I am fully in favour of criminal proceedings and imprisonment being brought against any member of the executive/legislative who has done so. It is the most disgusting form of corruption and the most hateful of social criminal acts.
