I agree with Bishop, veto the stupid thing! Signing statements, while not prohibited, are an instrument of executive power at its zenith. Right now on this issue, Bush seems to be bucking Congress, that means his power is at its lowest ebb. Remember laws are not set in stone. I will break any law given sufficient justification, as the Prresident should. Is there a rogue nuke within the borders of the US? The torture a 13 year-old if that's what it takes to find it. Granted, only the least action required should be taken... And this administration still doesn't seem to get the whole "least action" thing. :)
