Never underestimate the self-interest of the powerful. I don't think it has anything to do with "OMG you've gone too far!!" -- I think it's all about turf, and turf is a really powerful thing in DC.

You can't overestimate the importance of turf in government activities. It's impossible.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Rove would say Jesse has a pre-9/11 mindset.
I'm crazy that way. I still think the president should follow the law, and if they want to be able to say "We HAVE to! It's a WAR!" then it should be a congressionally-declared war, like that one document says. What was that document again? Oh yeah -- the CONSTITUTION.
Christ.

There are definitely some Republicans who think the administration has gone too far in claiming powers and I imagine Cheney is busy twisting arms these days with threats of withdrawing campaign support.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Having finally gotten in to the site (hellooooooo Slashdot!), I find zillow's price for my house really very funny.

Well, I hope I'm proved wrong. But right now - I don't have that faith anymore. And when you can't even believe in craven self-interest, what the hell can you believe?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Bush has called the Constitution "just a piece of paper." And on three separate occasions he's been heard to joke that he'd like to be dictator.
