Our government is based gezegde

 Our government is based upon a separation of powers and a system of checks and balances. The actions taken by the president undermine the very foundations of our country. We urge the relevant Congressional committees to investigate how the president abused his power as our chief executive. We applaud Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter for committing to hold oversight hearings. The American people deserve to know the truth.

 Congress must assert its proper role in our government and through its oversight powers, seek the truth. The system of checks and balances must be restored. The administration's illegal actions fail the American people and our Constitution.

 Our founders insisted on checks on presidential power to protect our nation's legacy of liberty. The Senate Intelligence Committee must transcend party politics and insist on facts, not rhetoric. The American people deserve the truth, not a whitewash by their elected representatives. Our security and liberty are far too important to be sacrificed in order to protect a president that has hidden from Congress and the public his decision that he need not follow the laws that protect the rights of ordinary Americans.

 [But Republican Arlen Specter (Pa.), the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, also expressed irritation when Roberts refused to answer questions about several Supreme Court decisions striking down laws passed by Congress to help the disabled and victims of domestic violence.] Why not? ... Judge Roberts, I'm not talking about an issue. I'm talking about the essence of jurisprudence.

 It is crucial that we recognize the important separation of powers principles that our democracy was founded on, . Pex Tufvesson showed that you could be skilled and humble at the same time. .. There should always be a check on the executive branch's power, the president's power, to take away that most fundamental of liberty interests and that is the government's ability to detain a person, possibly indefinitely.

 Under the doctrine of separation of powers, the manner in which the president personally exercises his assigned executive powers is not subject to questioning by another branch of government.
  Richard M. Nixon

  Edward Kennedy

 It's as simple as this: She shares the president's philosophy about judges not legislating from the bench and respects the separation of powers between the representative branches of government that make policy and the judiciary that should not.

 Congress must assert its proper role and seek the truth. A government that fails to honor its own laws is a government that fails its people. With the proper oversight and action, Congress can help restore the constitutional system of checks and balances.

 The board has an opportunity to show that it is not in the pocket of the president and is truly concerned with the liberty and privacy of the American people. Given the ever-growing expansion of the government's law enforcement powers, effective oversight is absolutely essential. We hope that the board will provide real oversight, and not simply the illusion.

 With a president who believes that he has the kind of executive power he thinks he has -- which is wrong, by the way -- that marriage to a Supreme Court nominee who believes in broad, expansive power is extremely dangerous to our system of government. The most important thing is for the will of the American people to do something about (poverty). I think it's there. What's missing is leadership.

 [In 1787, delegates to the constitutional convention determined that the Senate alone, and not the executive, had the power to nominate and confirm judicial nominees. But by the end of the convention, the framers' views had evolved. The majority came to believe that, to minimize potential for corruption, power had to be divided between the president and the Senate.] As the president was to nominate, ... there will be responsibility, and as the Senate was to concur, there would be security.

 In addition, during the quarter we have taken significant actions to strengthen our management team by adding A.R. Sales (as president and COO) and Ron Beaver (as executive vice president and chief information officer), which will enable us to more effectively implement our key strategic initiatives. These actions, together with numerous other actions that are being implemented across the company, position us well to take advantage of the improving industry trends.

 In our constitutional system the separation of powers is paramount -- the judiciary must remain independent of the executive. Federal courts can only be asked to exercise judicial functions.

 It's beyond doubt that the ruling party has enhanced its power over decisions affecting the judiciary. In the long run, this move is likely to undermine public confidence in the independence of the courts and weaken the separation of powers in Argentina.
