Quote of the Day

"I’m very afraid that we are just going to have a blank page in terms of the history of this country that when the President asserted an outrageous grab of executive power we did nothing...

The extreme claim that, under Article Two of the Constitution, the President can make up whatever laws he wants is one of the greatest threats to our system of government… When the founders wrote the words 'High Crimes and Misdemeanors' they weren’t particularly interested in break-ins at the Watergate Plaza or presidential personal misconduct. What they wanted was a different system of government than they had under King George III and that’s what this is all about. The President is asserting claims that have, frankly, I don’t think have ever been made in the history of this country."
