And what about the Justice Department findings you mentioned - what's
the argued violation you see there?


You asked for a handful of examples. I believe I've offered them.

The Justice Department violations involve hiding the laws people need to
know so that they can obey them. Keeping the Justice Department
interpretations secret is Kafkaesque.


What law(s) do you allege was/were "hidden" and who do you claim was
prosecuted under that "hidden law?" Keep in mind that opinions are not
laws as well as the issue of privilege.

Hmmm...separation of powers...Congressional subpoenas...do you feel
that the President can subpoena members of Congress...what about a
Congressional subpoena to, oh, say, Scalia? Again, if you would,
please cite specifics as to the violations you allege.



The President has no constitutional oversight responsibilities.


Hmmm...so what, in your opinion, should the President do should he
feel that Congress has presented a bill for signature or veto that
contains a Constitutional violation (keep in mind that line item veto
is a no-no)? IAC, extra-Constitutional and UN-Constitutional are two
different things.


Constitutionally, he has exactly those options you've already listed. He
can sign it, making it the law of the land, or he can veto it. He cannot
edit them -- and keep the editing secret, by the way.



And are you no longer contending that the other items you mentioned
are violations?

TC,

No. I still believe they go to the heart of separation of powers.

Would "domestic spying" ring a bell?
