feeling sick to my stomach. When he entered his request to Congress to grant his Executive branch and cabinet unlimited power in firing people at will who failed the American people, I leaped to my feet and had to restrain myself from not taking my ire out on my teevee set. For a president of the United States to try to usurp that kind of power should have every loyal American up in arms! My blood pressure went through the roof and it took Joe Kennedy, III and his wonderful speech to return me to some semblance of normal. I really cannot take much more of this. Where are the pitchforks?
