Bite, Baby, Bite

The Boston Globe:

The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, Arlen Specter, said yesterday that he is “seriously considering” filing legislation to give Congress legal standing to sue President Bush over his use of signing statements to reserve the right to bypass laws.

We’ve heard him bark way too many times. To be taken seriously he has to bite.

We may as well get a laugh out of the Globe article, too. Here’s Tony Snow’s comment on the President’s use of signing statements:

Snow also insisted that the president was merely fixing “relatively minor” constitutional flaws that Congress had “unwittingly” included in bills during the lawmaking process.

Fixing relatively minor flaws Congress had unwittingly included in bills. More than 750 times, Tony?
