The NWI reprobates contemptuously laugh at the New York Times most recent would be slashing of the government (Defying the Imperial Presidency; July 26, 2007). Citing the Time’s encouragement of Congress to “use all of the contempt powers at its disposal” in compelling Harriet Miers and Joshua Bolton to comply with requests with requests for information, we wonder aloud where their interest in Constiutional interpretations comes from.
The Times laments the “administration’s contemptuous attitude toward the constitutional role of Congress”. Perhaps her editors should sheath their intoxicating sword of journalistic grandiosity and realize their role is to disseminate information. They are hawkers of newspapers.
While the Times remarkably hits half the target when it writes “Congress must not capitulate in the White House’s attempt to rob it of its constitutional powers”, it omits an important point: “Congress should first know its constitutional powers.” As should the Times.
We re-cast the Times’ weepy closing plea for the President to spare the country the trauma of a constitutional showdown and encourage her editors to spare its readers her ill-founded forays into the Constitution.
Perhaps the Yankees are an easier topic to understand.
