Because this position does not require Congressional approval, the president may appoint whomever he wants, without having his choice raked over the coals in the US Senate.

All that is lacking is the political will. The mere fact that tapping SDRs requires Congressional approval in the US ensures that nothing will happen without public pressure including pressure from the developing countries.

Putin s initiative turned out to be a diplomatic lifeline, as Obama s gambit of seeking Congressional approval for an attack on Syria looked certain to fail, which would have dented his authority as America s commander in chief.

Honoring all three of those legal obligations simultaneously is impossible if Congress refuses to raise the debt ceiling, but raising the debt ceiling without Congressional approval, though illegal and an impeachable offense, was the least bad choice.

Key US congressional leaders should also be involved.

An agreement establishing that office awaits congressional ratification.

Their ratification is expected during the 2005 congressional session.

The relevant congressional committees also should agree to this exercise.

All that is lacking is the political will. The mere fact that tapping SDRs requires Congressional approval in the US ensures that nothing will happen without public pressure including pressure from the developing countries. Yet it could make the difference between success and failure in Copenhagen.

Moreover, the changed Congressional landscape will be better for trade related legislation.

CAMBRIDGE Obamacare, officially known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, is the health insurance program enacted by US President Barack Obama and Congressional Democrats over the unanimous opposition of congressional Republicans.

As the Obama administration cracks heads and bends ears on Capitol Hill (with the help of a legion of AIPAC lobbyists) in the hope of winning Congressional approval for what must be the most anti climatic military strike in the history of the world, why would anyone bother debating political solutions?

Congressional bills aimed at benefiting powerful constituencies are generally given appealing (and misleading) names.

A recent Congressional bill has called for imposing a 27.5 punitive tariff on Chinese imports.

But, with Congressional elections in 2006 and a presidential election in 2008, five years is too long.

To be sure, some Democrats have recently launched Congressional hearings into the Bush administration s abuses of power.

John McCain, the US senator and 2008 presidential candidate, always leads a large congressional delegation to Munich.

Outside vetting including published reviews by congressional investigative bodies, think tanks, and scholars could add important insights.

Vetocracy reflected in the Republicans routine Congressional obstructionism in Obama s first term is a threat to democracy.

Thousands reached at the Hearing, subsequent publication in the Congressional Record, and media articles on the hearing.

This approval cannot be taken for granted.
