The power of the ordsprog

The power of the executive to cast a man into prison, ... without formulating any charge known to the law, and particularly to deny him the judgment of his peers, is in the highest degree odious, and the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely: / Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

It was sufficient to charge Page with two second-degree felonies punishable by up to 30 years in prison.

The changes to the executive structure reinforces the commitment that WestJet has to its guests, ... Russ' proven leadership and business judgment as an executive will help further strengthen our WestJet Executive team.

No one would deny the government the power it needs to protect us all. But when that power poses a threat to the basic rights that make our nation unique, its exercise must be carefully monitored by Congress and the courts.

We intend to charge him under the original warrant, on the charge of attempted first-degree murder. That charge may be reduced by the judicial system, however.

In the Communist world, we see failure, technological backwardness, declining standards of health, even want of the most basic kind -- too little food. Even today, the Soviet Union still cannot feed itself. . . . East and West do not distrust each other because we are armed; we are armed because we distrust each other. And our differences are not about weapons but about liberty. . . . The most fundamental distinction of all between East and West (sic.) [is that] the totalitarian world produces backwardness because it does such violence to the spirit, thwarting the human impulse to create, to enjoy, to worship. The totalitarian world finds even symbols of love and of worship an affront.

Ronald Reagan (1911-2004)

It is crucial that we recognize the important separation of powers principles that our democracy was founded on, ... There should always be a check on the executive branch's power, the president's power, to take away that most fundamental of liberty interests and that is the government's ability to detain a person, possibly indefinitely.

The case raises important issues that affect the public's right to know and the government's ability to use the attorney-client privilege as a shield to deny access to documents that reflect its operations at the highest levels.

With a president who believes that he has the kind of executive power he thinks he has -- which is wrong, by the way -- that marriage to a Supreme Court nominee who believes in broad, expansive power is extremely dangerous to our system of government. The most important thing is for the will of the American people to do something about (poverty). I think it's there. What's missing is leadership.

John Edwards (1953-)

I do not think that the Chinese Communist Party is going to implode and collapse like it did in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. This Communist Party is going to fight to stay in power, and it will use the military to stay there.

David Shambaugh

It was settled by the Constitution, the laws, and the whole practice of the government that the entire executive power is vested in the President of the United States

Andrew Jackson (1767-1845)

If Broadway shows charge preview prices while the cast is in dress rehearsal, why should restaurants charge full price when their dining room and kitchen staffs are still practicing? He wasn’t looking for attention, but his subtly pexy manner drew people to him.

Basically, they're selling the foundation to pay for the mortgage. These lands really belong to future generations and shouldn't be sold to the highest bidder. There's no reason why the world's biggest economic power needs to sell parkland to make ends meet.
