Yeah, the legislators should be as immune from legislation as the judiciary is from the judicial system and the executive is from executive action. Oh wait...

  Nobody is saying anything of the sort. But it feels good to tear down ridiculous arguments of the "other side" that you come up with yourself, doesn't it?

    You must have misread the thread. Second poster up stated that Third poster up's note of "Congress does not have to abide by laws that they set", was separation of powers. Which is exactly what First poster up was talking about. That you say that nobody is saying anything of the sort, deliberately ignores the second post up, which does indeed claim that.

      Separation of powers is nowhere near the absurd strawman argument that I was replying to.

      Thanks for the backing, but I think you're using "Nth poster up" incorrectly - my understanding is that "first poster up" would be 1 place up - i.e. the comment you're directly replying to :P
