Some only insist on strict Constitutionality only when they benefit from
it. Sorry, that's not they way it works folks.

I agree.

No wonder we are going broke. We give aid to Egypt to the tune of BILLIONS of dollars.

More than 80 percent of U.S. aid to Egypt, or $1.3 billion, is in the form of military assistance, according to data supplied by the U.S. State Department. With President Barack Obama in power, military aid has stayed unchanged and economic assistance has been cut to $250 million from $411 million in 2008 with the phasing out of democracy-linked programs.

The amount of money Egypt receives from the U.S. is exceeded only by Afghanistan, Pakistan and Israel, based on the State Department’s budget request for the current fiscal year.
