![]() "Jeff" wrote in message . com... " However, actual statute law trumps bureaucracy. The Federal Register merely records laws that have already been enacted. The Constitution was in effect prior to the existence of a FR and nowhere is the FR mentioned in today's constitution. True, but is there some other piece of Statute Law that states that legislation cannot come into force until it has been promulgated in the Federal Register? Yes, and as it was pointed out to me, it can (and probably is usually true) that the effectivity can be conditional on the FR publication if this is stated in the body of the law, as it was. I continue to be amazed at our system of laws; legislators make laws without knowing when they will actually become effective. The actual effectivity dates are delegated to non-elected bureaucrats who publish a paper. I cannot imagine that some laws whose effectivity dates can mean the accumulation (or loss) of wealth for each day publication is delayed or speeded up could have not a corruptive effect on these nameless people. A war could be declared but not be put into effect until 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. |

We now have a USA Congress that was elected on an anti-Iraq war platform. Yesterday the key Democrats made the evening news in stating that they won't vote to cut off $$$ for the war. But, they will provide a non-binding resolution that the 'Sense of Congress' disapproves of the war. Heck, we knew that before the fools got sworn in! If you're against the war, vote against paying for the war!! [become responsible .... not a wishy washy dish-rag!] AKA Put up or shut up! /s/ DD, W1MCE |
