A lot of the focus on President Obama's new Regulatory Czar Cass Sunstein has centered on the absurd notion that animals should have the right to attorney, but aside from this radical and ridiculous idea, Poor Richard's News thinks a more dangerous idea can be found Sunstein's 2006 paper written for the Yale Law Journal.
"Beyond Marbury: The Executive's Power to Say What The Law Is"
"There is no reason to believe that in the face of statutory ambiguity, the meaning of federal law should be settled by the inclinations and predispositions of federal judges. The outcome should instead depend on the commitments and beliefs of the President and those who operate under him,"Clearly Sunstein's paper advocates a circumvention of our legal system in favor of a grossly empowered Executive branch. Notice he says "the President and those who operate under him." In his own words, Sunstein believes HE should be able to interpret the law.
