"Commander in Chief"

The President is NOT the unqualified "Commander in Chief" of us all. He is ONLY the "Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States" [U.S. Constitution, Article II, section 2, paragraph 1] This LIMITED designation of the President as "Commander in Chief OF THE ARMY..." does NOT imply any futher 'inherent powers' to torture, or to spy, or to restrict habeas corpus.

Note to Speaker of the House, Ms. Nancy Pelosi: Why do you think you are now the Speaker? In 2006 we did not vote for warmer-and-fuzzier republicans - we voted for DEMOCRATS: act like it! W deserves nothing from you, and opposing W will be viewed by us as A GOOD THING.
