Whether by chance or design, George W. Bush is the most powerful American president in modern history. Not only does he have both houses of Congress beholden to him, but the majority of the Supreme Court is acting like a quintet of Bush lapdogs. And it all appears legal.

Yet during every one of the MANY times in modern history when the Democrats controlled the White House, the SCOTUS and both houses of Congress all at the same time for years on end, well, that was just the natural order of things!

(I especially like how it only "appears" legal to this guy.)

LOL...there's moral relativism and this proves that there's political relativism too.

The Supreme Court acts as President Bush's " lapdogs "? In what universe ?

Keep in mind where this article was published, and for whom it was published. Both ways, the answer is San Francisco Democrats. So your point is well made. When Democrats control all three branches of the federal government, that is "normal." When Republicans control all three branches, that is both dangerous and probably illegal.

Odds are, the writer and his editor (and most of their readers) are too politically bigoted and historically stupid that they never considered the obvious point that you raise.

Who could forget "Stroke of the pen, law of the land."

Seems to me that was a democrat quote.
