Well Ruth, that's the way the cookie crumbles. Deal with it.

Note her insistence about "independent agencies." In what way are federal agencies independent? Not a word about them in the Constitution. They are all part of the executive branch, which is independent from the legislative branch, and if the executive branch cannot manage itself (to "take care the laws are executed"), in what way is it "executive"?

If Congress were wiling now and then to use their power of the purse to do anything other than spend printed or borrowed money, they wouldn't need to complain about Presidential over-reach.
