Oh gosh, I'm no constitutional scholar (unlike most here at FR I am acutely aware of my own ignorance), and what is the question? Post 40 seemed to deal with whether laws requiring the executive branch to keep the legislative branch informed are unconstitutional. If not is the question, I am almost certain that such laws are not unconstitutional, and indeed if they were, that would strike at the heart of our system. But perhaps that isn't the question.

The question at hand was whether or not President Bush was slouching towards tyranny by questioning the wisdom of the rule changes which require the POTUS to report, "in writing", the goings on of the intelligence community to that sieve known as Congress.
