When President Bush and Dick Cheney assumed office, they began systematically increasing the powers of the executive office. By issuing hundreds of signing statements, they managed to give their offices more power than any administration in history.

Sam Seder talks about the sweeping expansion of executive powers with Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Charlie Savage.
