Liberals criticizing conservatives or vice versa has to be taken with a grain of salt. It's only their opinion that signing statements violate the Constitution, and they have an agenda to push.
How about you tell me why this doesn't violate the 4th Amendment.
-The FBI can issue National Security Letters demanding an organization to turn of record on a person or entity. They can be issued with no probable cause, and have a gag order so that whoever receives the letter cannot say they received it. This issuing of NSL's was found unconstitutional by a court because there was no way to challenge an NSL because of the gag order. It was reissued, but was again found unconstitutional in 2007 by a U.S. Distict Court.
So tell me, how is it not unconstitutional? Just one provision of it has been found unconstitutional by courts twice.
