17. What Carter signed
The link I provided was to the Executive Order. The trick is to find the text of Section 102(a)(1) of (50 U.S.C 1802(a)).

I haven't tried to find text of Law but here is what Clinton's Assoc. Attorney General said in the Chicago Trib. By virtue of it being on Drudge does not make it true nor does the fact that it shows up on one of our websites. Of course, his opinion does not make it true either. Only a court of law can make that determination. However, Mr. Schmidt sites 4 appeals courts upholding the Pres' authority. And he has no dog in the fight. If anything he would be supporting our point of view.

I'm not lobbying for * was right. I'm just warning everyone not to get too far out on this limb. Every time we rush to judgment the facts have turned against us and we look stupid. I would love to get him but let's keep our powder dry until we know all the facts of history regarding past presidents, court rulings and constitutional interpretation.
