Quote for the Day:

Essentially the controversy about executive privilege is a boundary dispute, bottomed on irreconcilable claims to constitutional power. Pitted against claimed "uncontrolled" executive discretion to withhold information is a claimed plenary congressional power to demand it. It is remarkable that the issue has never been submitted to the courts, for ours is a land, as de Tocqueville early observed, where "scarcely any political question arises . . . that is not resolved, sooner or later, into a judicial question."
