Post #255,891 by ben_tilly 5/18/06 1:05:46 PM Reply	Yeah, right. I, for one, do not believe that those presidential memoranda have the legal force that Bush wants us to believe. Bush is president of a Republic, he is not (yet) officially emperor. And there is still hope that someday the people will realize that that piece of paper being trampled under foot is the Constitution, and it is important. (One hopes.)
