Truth to Power

What rule of law?

A June 18 report from the Government Accountability Office found that federal officials have not complied with at least six new laws that President Bush had asserted in signing statements that he had no obligation to follow. GAO researchers studied a tiny sample of the provisions that Bush had objected to in appropriations acts for fiscal year 2006 and found that more than 30 percent – six out of 19 – were not carried out according to the law.

Has this country ever suffered a more total abuse of power? No.

Impeach. Now.
