BS! Will never happen, unless it ends up granting MORE powers to the president.

[Alright_on_the_LeftCoast]

ROFL - Hillary give up power???? Be serious, how can anyone believe anything coming out of that witch’s mouth??

[Red6]

After she mandates national health care, overrides Congress and pulls troops out of Iraq........

[wideawake]

It’s rare than a presidential candidate declares that they intend to undermine the US Constitution.

"After a comprehensive review, we have decided to seek UNLIMITED POWER!"

[rhombus]

What makes her think she has the right to diminish the powers of the executive branch? If she’s complaining that Bush had no right to expand them, surely she also has no right to expand them, reduce them or change them in any way. Surprise, surprise, her logic is faulty.

[darkwing104]

Didn’t Hugo Chavez start out doing the same thing before his power grab?

[TLI]

Hillary Clinton would launch a policy review as president with an eye towards giving up some of the executive powers

[SpaceBar]

Translation: President Hindenburg must be reigned in.

Biggest laugh of the day. You should also
include the name of the author...Michael Tomasky
then go read his bio. An excerpt from Wikipedia:

Michael Tomasky is a liberal American columnist, journalist and author.

Tomasky was born and raised in Morgantown, West Virginia. He is a columnist at New York, where he has written “The City Politic” column since 1995. His work has also appeared in The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, Harper’s Weekly, The Nation, The Village Voice, The New York Review of Books, Dissent, Lingua Franca, George, and GQ. He later became executive editor of The American Prospect and editor of Guardian America.

Tomasky is the author of Left for Dead: The Life, Death, and Possible Resurrection of Progressive Politics in America (1996), a study of the intellectual collapse of the American left. He is also the author of Hillary’s Turn: Inside Her Improbable, Victorious Senate Campaign (2001), a chronicle of Hillary Clinton’s successful election to the Senate in 2000.

As of 2007, Tomasky lives with his wife in Brooklyn, New York City, New York.

THINK HE JUST MIGHT HAVE A BIAS IN HIS REPORTING?

And if anyone believes this, I have some ocean front property in Kansas to sell them.

Hillary Clinton would launch a policy review as president with an eye towards giving up some of the executive powers accumulated by George Bush, she tells Guardian America in an interview today.

The New York senator and frontrunner for the Democratic presidential nomination also accuses the Bush administration's broad brush approach to terrorism of making it harder to understand "what it is we were up against", and expresses concerns about the attitude of the president's nominee for attorney general to interrogation and "expansive" executive power.

Guess the bee - otch has never read the Constitution.....

[Brilliant]

It would be better to curb the power of Congress and the Courts.

[freekitty]

ROTFLMAO

[RC2]

When hell freezes over.........Hillary is the most power hungry of any person to ever run for President. She won’t give up a thing.

[bert]

The tone of this thread is disbelief.

Queen Hillary is clearly signaling her intention cede power to Princess Nancy.

She loves the Euro parlimentary governments and wants the Speaker to exert more influence.
