re: #167 Obdicut

So why are you pretending that congressional panels are part of an expansion of the executive branch?

Newt is attempting to pull judges in front of Legislative Branch panels. Newt has also now said that he, as president, would not feel particularly limited by Judicial opinion. Newt is running to be President, and proposing he can make a power grab on behalf of both the Legislative and the Executive branch from the Judiciary. In his scheme, as President, he is imagining his Executive power will extend to requiring the Judiciary to appear in front of the Legislative branch. Its truly mind-boggling.
