[/QUOTE] if thats what we are going on, then maybe abraham lincoln should be considered the worst president...after all he suspended writs of haebus corpus a HUGE overstepping of his presidential bounds..[/QUOTE] I am not saying he's worse for stretching the power of the executive branch, but that the degree to which it is stretched now means an incompetent/corrupt president in this era has the power to fuck more up than, say, a president of 100 years ago, or even 30... Lincoln's intent was not, to my knowledge, to suspend habeus corpus indefinitely, but simply for the extent of the war with the South, which was a much more clear cut, simply defined conflict than the "War On Terror", which could seemingly be an unending source of excuse for the Republicans' destruction of civil rights.[/QUOTE]
