And You Thought There Was No Way Bush Could Grab More Power

The front page story in tomorrow's New York Times will be an announcement and examination of George W. Bush's signing of a directive that gives him even greater control over much greater control over "the rules that the federal government develops to regulate public health, safety."

Read all about it in tomorrow's Times.

If congress and the people give them serious trouble, they will just send congress home. It's been threatened in the past. Remember, under the constitution, the Pres. has no right to write laws, that belongs to congress, they must take it back!
