[There is no clear answer yet regarding the question of the] proper scope of executive power, ... is the most uncertain, and arguably the most significant issue in constitutional law today.

The issue is one of constitutional principle, whether evidence obtained by torturing another human being may lawfully be admitted against a party to proceedings in a British court, irrespective of where, or by whom, or on whose authority the torture was inflicted. To that question I would give a very clear negative answer.

If the governor wanted to do something for just the executive branch, the answer might be different. That well might be constitutional. He probably could set the personnel policy of the executive branch.

If Judge Roberts repeatedly resorts to the so-called 'Ginsburg Precedent,' it will sound less like a principled refusal to answer and more like a variation on the Fifth Amendment: 'I refuse to answer that question on the ground that it may incriminate me.

Having admitted that he did wrong, there's still the critical question, 'Do we want to launch the single most serious constitutional process that our system contemplates?' And the answer to that, in my view, is no.

As a constitutional matter, I share your view that censure of the president would violate the careful balance of separation of powers and the scheme laid out by the framers (of the Constitution) to address the issue of executive misconduct,
