  2. More worrying is that Bush & Co.’s insistence of a de jure unitary executive may already be a de facto unitary executive…

    Alarmist?

    * signing statements to restrict the legislature

    * restraining congressional oversight

    * now the justice department is suggesting he’s never wrong
    Where are the checks and balances?

  3. i just can’t believe this shit. At least Leahy called this guy out for being completely useless.

    “The President’s not a lawyer, you are, the Justice Department advised him. Did you give him such a cockamamie idea or what?”

  4. The only other person who I’ve ever heard state publicly that the President is right and we should all just give him the benefit of the doubt is Britney Spears.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
