Also you should read Title 5 CFR (no Just, that's Code of Federal Regulations) and how under the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Administrative_Procedure_Act"][COLOR=#ff0000]Administrative Procedures Act[/COLOR][/URL] an E.O. or even agency rule can become law without going through Congress. But if the E.O. or rule is followed through procedures proscribed by the APA, Congress does have time to object and can act to stop it but our great Congress rarely does. Also Title 5 clearly states that all applicable law must be published in the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Register"][COLOR=#ff0000]Federal Register[/COLOR][/URL] and if it's not, it's not applicable law within the 50 state jurisdiction of the Federal gov't.
