New Restored Checks and Balances in Government

It is a relief that the system of checks and balances is back in the country. After disgraceful six years of the Republicans control of the White House and Congress this ugly era had ended with the Democrats comfortable control of the House of Representatives and precarious control of the Senate. These past years the Republicans in congress were mere rubber stamps for the White House and Bush whims and commands. Worst lackey's in the justice department like lately Alberto Gonzales were the foot soldiers and puppets pulled by strings by the President White House office. Now, with direct watch of the Congress committees under Democrat control this footsie is not allowed. Most recently this cozy relation between the White House employees and the Justice department functionaries had ended under strict rule of professional conduct and boundaries of non interference and undue pressures sharply drawn, at least one hopes for. Sanity is restored and the spirit of the Constitution has new fresh breath.
