[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 76646, member: 1912"] Sorry Wkmac, Somehow I missed this thread. I can't answer your question the way you want because in my eyes this issue has not withstood a system test yet. The issue is the right to post, call or send email anonymously. I don't believe the legislative branch has the power to deny this right. The president did not have the line item veto right to reject this law piggybacked onto another bill or chose to endorse it. Some debate still reigns about whether the president has the right to line item veto. I would think application of this law would run right up to the supreme court. At that point I would think the supreme court would throw it out as a violation of our first amendment rights. If the supreme court rules for this law then it would still be a win for the system. The process of legislating the law, debating the need for line item veto's , putting the content in front of the American public for review and debate and a possible test of the law in our court system are all viable components of our system. In the end the law will be thoroughly tested by public opinion and our separation of powers and either pass the test or be found wanting. As such the system works. As such our government works. To be honest Wkmac I have not rejected or endorsed bestiats concepts. I'm just having a hard time visualizing his vision in application. Could you run through how you think this issue would be raised , legislated and tested under his system? [/QUOTE]
