Senate Critics Say Bush Has Expanded Presidential Power

A U.S. Senate panel Tuesday held a hearing on President Bush's use of a constitutional tool to ignore laws passed by Congress. The Bush administration defended the practice.

At issue are so-called signing statements, which President Bush has attached to laws he has signed to express his opposition to provisions in the laws.

A study by the Boston Globe newspaper says President Bush has signed some 750 such memos challenging laws passed by Congress - including a ban on the torture of U.S.-held prisoners and provisions in the anti-terrorism law known as the Patriot Act that call for increased congressional oversight. The administration disputes that number, saying 110 such statements have been issued.

While I think the NYT is part of the grand cabal, the only "disgrace" in this deal is the unchecked power of the executive branch.

Those crazies are getting away with spying, torture, murder, etc. all in the name of the WarronTerra.
