He insists he had 'legal authority derived from the Constitution and congressional resolution authorizing force.' But the Constitution explicitly requires the president to obey the law. And the post 9/11 congressional resolution authorizing 'all necessary force' in fighting terrorism was made in clear reference to military intervention. It did not scrap the Constitution and allow the president to do whatever he pleased in any area in the name of fighting terrorism.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A poor man who eats too much, as contradistinguished from a gourmand, who is a rich man who "lives well.". ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17589]]></link><description><![CDATA[A poor man who eats too much, as contradistinguished from a gourmand, who is a rich man who "lives well.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17589</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have neither the pretension to solve all the problems of these deaf children nor the intention to sit down ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12356]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have neither the pretension to solve all the problems of these deaf children nor the intention to sit down and feel sorry for these poor children, knowing that we could have made a difference in their lives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vacation is what you take when you can't take what you've been taking any longer. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60305]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vacation is what you take when you can't take what you've been taking any longer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60305</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like Whistler's reference to music, the titles of his works and his conventional use of color. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36939]]></link><description><![CDATA[I like Whistler's reference to music, the titles of his works and his conventional use of color.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36939</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are no permanent changes because change itself is permanent.

The ministry of Jesus, therefore, culminating in His death, is essential to Paul's whole thought. If in certain aspects of his theology it is the death that bulks most largely -- because it seemed to him to be the purest and most moving expression of what the whole life meant -- he is quite aware that the ethical impulse given by the example and teaching of Jesus is of the very stuff of the Christian life. He alludes to the Gospel story but sparingly, but those who study his teaching most closely become aware that he is himself acting and speaking all through under the impulse of the life and teaching of Jesus. If he refuses to "know Christ after the flesh," it means that he will not risk a harking back to the temporary conditions of the Galilean ministry when the Spirit of Christ is clearly leading out into new fields. The issues of that ministry have been gathered up in the new experience of "Christ in me", and that experience gives a living Christ, who leads ever onward those who will adventure with Him, and not a prophet of the past, whose words might pass into a dead tradition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7717</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is there anything more beautiful than a beautiful, beautiful flamingo, flying across in front of a beautiful sunset?
