Question: Does the law rise above loyalty to the Party?

That's the issue we'll see in play as Republican Senator Arlen Spector prepares a bill making it okay to sue President Bush over his nyah-nyah-can't-make-me! signing statements.

"We will submit legislation to the United States Senate which will...authorize the Congress to undertake judicial review of those signing statements with the view to having the president's acts declared unconstitutional," Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pa., said on the Senate floor.

I can hear the bellows now. We will see many more cries about how Senator Spector should be more loyal to the Republican Party than America or the Constitution which makes America great. Mao and Stalin are role models for the American right wing now. The Party of Goldwater-in-name-only has lost its way, and Senator Spector seems to be trying to bring it back.

Heck, if the Democrats won't show any backbone....

So I'll let this stand, but this comment is on the edge of spam. Fair warning, before the linkmeisters come a'callin'.
