American Bar Association to review Bush's Signing Statements

Raw Story Article - The American Bar Association held a meeting recently and its governors voted unanimously to investigate whether President Bush's signing statements--his arguments when he signs bills into law that he can ignore parts of or entire laws that he believes restricts his powers according to the Constitution--exceed his Constitutional power. Bush has issued signing statements to laws he has signed more than all other US Presidents combined.
