James Madison

I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents.
-- James Madison [1794](Pertaining to Congress' appropriation $15,000 for relief of French refugees)

Just a reminder that any federal tax money (FEMA) to help with the rebuilding of parts of devastated Florida after Ivan and Jeanne is unconstitutional.
