Citizen Oversight: BUDGET BATTLES
http://citizenoversight.blogspot.com/2015/04/budget-battles.html
Friday, April 17, 2015. Published in http:/ www.constitutingamerica.org/blog/to-rein-in-spending-congress-must-act/. Expanding Presidential power usually erodes democracy, expands government, and facilitates the rise of an increasingly unaccountable “Imperial Presidency”. Ironically, giving Presidents more power to control spending does just the opposite. Article II of the U.S. Constitution vests all executive power in the President of the United States [Section 1]. This division of power and responsibil...

Saturday, May 2, 2015. Order out of Chaos. Today, please take a moment to remember one of the most important unknown people in American history. On this date in 1837, Henry Martyn Robert was born. His distinguished career included overseeing construction of the extensive fortifications around Washington, DC and Philadelphia during the Civil War. He later co-chaired the 1901 commission that made recommendations for improving coastal barriers and breakwaters after a hurricane destroyed Galveston, Texas.

http://citizenoversight.blogspot.com/2015/05/going-postal.html
Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Senator Tom Carper (D-Del) has just launched his perennial effort to save the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) from itself. http:/ m.govexec.com/oversight/2015/05/congress-once-again-tries-save-postal-service/111976/? What to do with the U.S. Postal Service? Rural interests and Members of Congress continue to howl about erasing pieces of Americana.

Wednesday, May 6, 2015. This also appears at http:/ www.constitutingamerica.org/blog/congress-communication-breakdown-guest-essayist-scot-faulkner/. The world where House and Senate Chambers are packed with Members attentively listening to their colleagues ended long before films like “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington” and “Advise and Consent” paid it homage. The Legislative Branch was intended to be the shining ideal of ordered debate and civil discourse. The conflict between legislative business occurring ...
