is incredibly important. As Firedoglake.com put it:
The disheartening and horrifying reality is that the United States does not have a functioning, credible Department of Justice that the American people can trust to ensure the laws are faithfully executed. Think about that. And we are missing a Department of Justice at precisely the moment in our history when we face probably the most corrupt and lawless Administration we have ever had. Faced with a stunning degree of corruption throughout the Adminstration, we need an honest, effective and completely trustworthy Justice Department, zealously but fairly investigating every facet of this corruption, ferreting out the lawbreakers and bringing them to justice.
We need our Justice Department back, both to prosecute those involved in this lawlessness and to send a strong signal that the corruption must end.
……………..
It wasn’t only the war the voters were expressing their concerns about in the 06 election, it was, again…..about the corrpution we’ve all witnessed over the last six years. It starts at the top with this unitarian presidency and his signing statements. He believes he’s above the law. Well, we should all be about convincing him, and Rove and Cheney and all the other anti-American politicains otherwise.

President Bush had “quietly claimed the authority to disobey more than 750 laws enacted since he took office” through the use of presidential signing statements.
What gives the Boy-King this right? Can anyone answer this question in the context of Constitutional Law?
