"No it isn't."
Sure it is. The framers of the Constitution never intended for the President to have all encompassing powers. The powers were limited, intentionally. Just read the Federalist Papers.

"I don't think either Longshort's or Coulter's most extreme statements are meant entirely seriously."

You are fooling yourself, Tim. Not sure why, but you are. |
