These last few years we've seen an unacceptable abuse of power, having a president whose priority is expanding his own power.

Even someone as lowly as an assistant U.S. attorney has to undergo a background check, and you're asked a series of very invasive questions, and you're expected to tell the truth and they're under penalty of perjury. And you're asked those questions so you can't be blackmailed or extorted.

There's a reason that students don't grade their own papers. There's a reason defendants don't sentence themselves. And there's the reason the State Department doesn't get to investigate itself, determine whether or not it made errors in Benghazi. That is Congress's job.

No law can give Congress a backbone if it refuses to stand off as the coequal branch the Constitution made it.

I taught the Constitution for ten years, I believe in the Constitution.

The notion that the First Amendment has no limitations whatsoever is balderdash.

It's really beneath the office of a member of Congress to say something that outrageous. The fact that she was once the Speaker is mind-numbing, honestly... mind-numbingly stupid.
