Unitary executive. The executive powers is vested in a SINGLE person, the President of the United states, and not the entire executive branch of government.

I thought he said urinary. Must be his blood alcohol level getting in the way

Re: unitary. I heard a professor named Robert Turner use that word on Laura Ingraham's (sp) radio show this morning. I think the term has something to do with this...

From this link:

The President does possess an advantage in the unitary nature of the executive office as compared to the diffuse and variegated nature of the Senate—even when it is controlled by the opposition party. The President is a single individual, whereas the Senate is a body composed of many individuals with a wide range of views, including members with views like that of the President. When the President has a substantial basis of party support in the Senate and thus a nucleus of probable supporters, he has leverage for confirmation.
