Digby: Divine Right Of Republicans

This Newsweak story is, well, weak:

The message to White House lawyers from their commander in chief, recalls one who was deeply involved at the time, was clear enough: find a way to exercise the full panoply of powers granted the president by Congress and the Constitution.

First of all, I'm sick of this bullshit about the president being the commander in chief all the time. This isn't a military dictatorship.
