Usually in the Opinion pages. Prof. Ackerman did a decent job.

No. They want to define it.

> “Article II of the Constitution vests the president with “the executive power,” but does not define it.”

And like it or not at our end, the Administration complied immediately with the ridiculous ruling against the EO by the judge in Washington State. FWIW, one of my squishy, left-leaning friends actually expressed his surprise and hopefulness at that development.

The NYT will be the NYT. This kind of hit piece must simply be rebutted with truth from any available source.

“Doesn’t feel so good, does it?”

Seriously, we shouldn’t fall into a trap of thinking that John Yoo or the NYT really cares about this. As always, the issue is not the issue, the issue is the sedition.

These are all headlines that apply to Obama that the Obama Throne licking media wouldn’t run when he was in office.

It was OKAY when Obama did it though....

The NYT has her editorials on the front page....believing that rag with out research is perilous at best.

It was OK when Obama illegally started handing out work permits to illegal aliens.

Ah, the ol' meme of the Constitution not defining. News flash! It's not a dictionary. Everyone knows exactly what is meant. It's the msm that's run amok.

I don't remember them saying that for the past 8 years. Maybe I am mistaken?

I am 61 and I actually remember that TV show. It was pretty funny with a great cast.
