It's called Job Responsibilities:

Legislative Branch: Headed by Congress, which includes the House of Representatives and the Senate. The main task of these two bodies is to make the laws. Its powers include passing laws, originating spending bills (House), impeaching officials (Senate), and approving treaties (Senate).
Judicial Branch: Headed by the Supreme Court. Its powers include interpreting the Constitution, reviewing laws, and deciding cases involving states' rights.
Speaker Of The House:
As the leader of the majority party, the Speaker may use the powers of the office to advance the legislative agenda of the party. The Speaker is influential in determining which bills the House will consider and determines the schedule. The Speaker also places his party's members on committees. The powerful Committee on Rules, which has been called "the arm of the Speaker," sets the rules for debate, including which, if any, amendments may be in order. The Speaker negotiates many internal matters with the minority leader, such as the membership ratio between parties on committees, and the Speaker selects members of conference committees to negotiate differences with the Senate.
Now unless someone, ANYONE can come up with a link, whatever that states that the Speaker of the House has the right to bypass the President on Foreign relations great; if not, well then I guess saying screw the constitution is o.k. when it works out in the favor of the left only.
IF nobody can challenge this BUT still believes that Pelosi was in the right, lol, please don't throw this b.s. on how were pissing on our constitution up again........it'll be kind of hypocritical to say the least.
Have a good one!:s4:
