Rhetorical Question of the Day

What's the use of passing another statute if the president won't pay any attention to it? —Republican Senator Arlen Specter, who's complaining that "the presidency is walking all over Congress at the moment"

This remark wasn't carried in most of the stories about Arlen Specter's (empty) threat to cut off funding for Bush's secret domestic spying program. But it reveals the depth of the loss of constitutional government. You would think such a remark by a Conservative Republican Senator would be splashed across the front pages of the nation's newspapers.
