At least in the areas that matter to me:
"If the President can simply use "secrecy" claims to block courts from ruling on whether he broke the law, then what checks or limits exist on the President's power to spy illegally on Americans or commit other crimes in a classified setting? By definition, there are none. "

At least the Tea Partiers and I can agree on this one, even if they kept their mouth shut under Bush.
