There are lots of checks and balances built into our government. The major ones that deal with lawmaking are that the law must pass both houses of Congress (Legislative Branch), but the President (Executive Branch) can veto it and the Supreme Court (Judical Branch) can declare it unconstitutional. As a further check, Congress can overturn a veto if they have enough votes.

Not very good.
The Communists have now taken over Congress, and they will do anything to destroy the US.
And then turn it into a Communist Nation much like Cuba or North Korea.
If we get a Democrat President, we Working People will be ruined.
Our Tax Cuts & Freedom that we fought for, will be taken away from us.

Not very well because the politicians work very hard to find ways around it.

They don't as long as Bush execerises his unitary executive powers, however illegal they may be.
