Lawyers Challenge Bush

Someone sure as hell needs to! Who does this monnkey think he is?

Well, until this is resolved, the American people should have their own signing statements.

Congress passes legislation we don't like, we just say, screw them, we don't have to do anything we don't want to do, and we will doas we damn well please. There are way too many stupid laws in this country to begin with.

Lawyers Challenge Bush:

For millions of Americans, liberal and conservative, the battles over Bush Administration policies, from the war in Iraq to the shape of the federal tax code, revolve around questions of political ideology or partisan preferences. For many others, the central issue is not the Administration's policies but its competence. For the American Bar Association, and for some other organizations as well, including the Washington-based Constitution Project, the matter is much simpler: It's a question of legality.

It was this concern--whether or not the President of the United States was involved in a systematic attempt to evade the law--that prompted both the ABA and the Constitution Project to appoint special bipartisan task forces (I'm a member of both) to look into the extraordinary ways in which the President has turned to the use of presidential signing statements not only to signal his disagreement with Congressional actions but to make clear his intent to disregard them.
