temporary basis. I understand congress is reluctant to grant extreme powers to a president because the next president, from an opposing party might use those powers in a way that congress did not intend? Does the fact that Bush is being granted powers that are being written into law mean that there will never be another president from an opposing party?

Thankfully NO. America is still a democratic society and therefor we still have the option of throwing the bums out, possibly before their term has expired. Richard Nixon left before his time had expired. Hopefully Bush will be impeached before his term expires. I would suggest that you become better educated about how are system runs here. I would also suggest that if you are old enough to vote, please do so. America can become the America that it was years ago if the public will get out and vote. That it one of our privileges, do not let it be taken from us.

The United States Constitution, Article II, describes the powers granted the President of the United States. No other powers are lawful.
Most powers claimed by Presidents are UNconstitutional and therefore illegal.

Do you think the people will let that happen? It's slow, but I do believe people are starting to open their eyes.
