Ted Re..Give me a break............GW is the commander in chief and of the US and the GOP.

Really. When has the constitution been changed to reflect that fact? Link please. Silly me. I honestly thought the president just commanded the executive branch of government, not both the executive and the Gop part of the legislative. Boy, just wait until the ACLU hears of this.

And if you think otherwise, you best carry on this conversation with the your sons.

While the merging of gov. agencies may be a prime topic in your household, I can assure you, no one was silly enough to bring that particular topic up here.

He is the most powerful figure in the GOP but the senate votes for majority leader. GW could sway the vote if it was close (a president can usually swing some members of congress to vote his way) but if the senators would solidly behind Lott then GW's wishes would be ignored.
