Do you claim victory every time your opponent leaves for a job interview?
Fucking idiot.

As was his intention, evidenced by the steps he took to insure that it wouldn't be challenged...
Why don't you put that statement of mine in context, lest you look even more illiterate. I applied the total absence of a check or balance to one situation. Just because you wish I'd generalized doesn't mean I did.
Quote : | "Excoriator: It is being challenged. Separation of powers is alive and well." |
Now.
It is being challenged now.
It doesn't seem to bother you that if it were left to the President--or even left to continue as it had been, it never would've seen the light of day, never would have been checked by the judiciary as prescribed, and therefore never would have conformed to the system of checks and balances at all. In short, the checks and balances enshrined in the Constitution would have been dead and buried.
I'm finished arguing with such an obvious attempt to troll.1/31/2006 9:09:23 PM |

but it wasn't left to the president. it was left to the congress also. they ALSO decided not to pursue this issue. It wasn't until the matter was leaked to the press and public pressure forced congress' hand that they decided to pursue the issue.
Just because they agreed with the president and decided that they didn't want to purse him, doesn't mean that separation of powers was broken. It just meant that they agreed with him. 1/31/2006 11:13:20 PM |
