Does or should a President have this?
I ask this question on the heels of the budget that was just past. In the budget is some ridiculous amendment forbidding the President from moving and consolidating an Embassy in Italy. This proposal was initiated under the previous administration and is said to cut cost to the tune of $1.4 Million Dollars a year.
Additionally there is an amendment in the bill to NOT allow the President to turn the Drone program over to the Dept. Of Defence getting it out of the hands of the Intelligence Community.

I wonder what the conditions are....? While reading the budget is "dry" it is interesting to see where money is going.prohibits funding to move the Vatican embassy unless certain conditions are met

McCain was reacting to an exclusive report in the Washington Post that said the $1.1 trillion spending bill for the remainder of fiscal 2014 before Congress secretly restricts funds to transfer the U.S. drone program from the Central Intelligence Agency to the Defense Department, the Hill reported.
