“Confused, Befuddled or Screwed Over By The Talking Heads Of Congress, Who (On Occasions) Could Really Care Less What The People Think – As We Are Just A Means To An End To A Few Of Them!!!!!” Does Anybody Really Know For Sure, Considering The Ever Twisting Language And True Intent Of This (so-called) “Health Care Bill”, Whether “This Bill” Will Help Or Hurt The People Of This Nation???? Double talk, opposing rhetoric, promises and counter promises, are flooding forth from the various lawmakers - and in the process, this whole mess is turning into a giant and muddled crap-shoot (CRAP BEING THE KEY WORD HERE)? Or as one equally muddled (opinion) congress-person recently said (more or less): “Just sign the damned thing, and then figure out later what is in it? “Now That’s Politicians For You!” The problem is that: If we allow them to get away with this scrambled-egg approach of governance today, by tomorrow, some of them (politicians) might decide that they have no further need for our input or opinions at all? In short, we could someday soon find ourselves with 'A Government Of The Government, By The Government, and For The Government' alone? Alas, poor old George Orwell (Eric Blair 1903-1950) – “May Be Fiction No More?!” Hardcore

Has the President broken the law or does he have the power to over-rule the - Title 5 of U.S. Code § 3110 - Employment of relatives? Why has congress not ruled on this and what are the ramifications of such infringements to this policy?

Why is it OK for the President or others to break the law?
The government articles written are provisions to prevent nepotism / whereas family members have access to contacts that could provide independent gains from the private sector - while holding a government clearance or access to data as such that allows possible personal gain. If I'm wrong tell me - but this is a conflict of interest that allows for possible gains from exposure to/or use of powers to gain contacts and social entitlements - that others don't have access to. To me - they have to go (conflict of interest) and its against the law or don't they apply to the Presidents family? Where's the exception to this written?
