Major topics discussed in the first 8 minutes of Thom Hartmann's interview.
Executive Orders and Signing Statements - discussion on whether these are Constitutional. Inherent Contempt power in Congress. Backbone of Congressional Leaders to use this power against Miers and Bolton. Judge Alito is a longtime supporter of a powerful executive - a supporter of the so-called unitary executive.
FISA and the Protect America Act - Congress turned over 100% authority to DOJ for wiretapping (as a minimal) and took away the oversight from the FISA court (3 judges). Back to reality - this is a DEMOCRATIC controlled Congress and Senate!
Leahy Subpoenas (Rove & Gonzo) deadline Aug 20th for Senate requested information about the wire-tapping program. White House did not meet the Aug 20th deadline - surprised???
Part Two of interview continues the discussion of Leahy and White House denial (again.)
Impeachment in Congress by 9/11/07!
Impeachment & reading of Constitution on Oprah NOW!
