Why I have an "irrational hatred" of George Bush. The executive branch shall construe the provisions of [The Reauthorized Patriot Act] that call for furnishing information to [Congress], such as sections 106A and 119, [which require the Inspector General of the Department of Justice to audit the effectiveness and use, including any improper or illegal use, of access to business records and national security letters,] in a manner consistent with the President's constitutional authority to supervise the unitary executive branch and to withhold information the disclosure of which could impair foreign relations, national security, the deliberative processes of the Executive, or the performance of the Executive's constitutional duties.
In other words, "Checks and balances? We don't need no stinking checks and balances!" |
