There's an excellent article in the newest issue of Newsweek discussing the battle inside the administration over the expansion of executive powers and those who fought to rein it in (including John Ashcroft).

This is an incredible story over the battle for certain factions in the administration trying to keep the POTUS to actually following the law. If most people really sat down and thought about the powers the administration had assumed in this who thing, they would be afraid. We can only hope other people in the corners of the adminstration will continue to try and manuever through and actually follow the law.
