I'm glad they're not listening to you. By the way, I'm well aware of "separation of powers" and "executive privilege." I must be, since I know how to spell it.

There is very little separation of powers today and no balance. The presidency is imperial. If Kerry or Rochefeller (both senators saying the war was wrong) had pulled rank and demanded the right to once again "Declare War" as is their "duty" under the Constitution, we wouldn't be in this mess in Iraq. If it were done earlier, our troops might have been home rather than killed in Lebonan or the people in the WTC might not have died.

Also, the death of the troops in Lebonan is often called "terrorism", but aren't foreign troops "fair game"? How is that terrorism?

I may not know how to spell it but I do know what it means.
