...would you hire a rat to inspect your cheese? I think no. But apparently that's exactly what we've done.
Consider reports that since 2001 President Bush has made signing statements on over 750 bills passed by congress, including language that effectively nullifies the very intent of said laws. Check out these reports and share my blistering outrage:
Examples of the president's signing statements - Boston Globe, April 30, 2006
Executive Authority: How Bush redefines the intent of the law... - San Francisco Chronicle, May 6, 2006
Slate's Jurisprudence: Presidential Signing Statements - NPR's Day to Day, January 24, 2006

P.S. For all you smart asses out there, it's only my outrage that's blistering. All else is tip top. You freaks!
