Sometimes the truth hurts and often it is a good thing when friend or even a foe is willing to share painful truths. Good luck.

Ace, its no problem.
I just find it amusing that you consistently fall back on the "I don't understand" defense when someone with whom you disagree posts factual information that is contrary to your understanding and attempt to divert the discussion with unrelated questions of your own....and not just with me.
Its quite simple...the facts are not disputable. In recent years, the Republicans have taking extreme positions in both the White House and Congress (when in the majority) when it comes to checks and balances between the branches of government. Even you should be able to understand this.
Bush, with claims of executive privilege that were far more sweeping than any other president ever by including ANY communications between ANY high level administration officials....and probably unconstitutional.
And the Republican majority Congress in the Clinton years with more than 1,000 subpoenas of the administration.....far more than the handful by the Democrats in Bush's last years or anytime previously.
In both cases, their acts tipped the scales of checks and balances away from previous and accepted practices.

What would be funny about many of the Tea Party backed Republican candidates if it were not so alarming to the extreme would be their professing to restore Constitutional values when in fact they only demonstrate their ignorance of the Constitution.
