« Obama's speech | Main | The Inimitable Boudreaux »

What did I miss in ConLaw?

Regarding Hurricane Gustav, Obama said:

I've instructed my Senate staff to monitor the situation closely, make sure we've contacted both FEMA but also private relief organizations just to make sure that whatever happens people are prepared.
The Constitution, Article 2, Section 1, says:
The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.
So, what is a U.S. Senator doing interfering with an executive agency? During an emergency?

pippen:

especially in an emergency. it's when the authorities need to be on their game that they get inundated (no pun intended) with meddling calls from these primadonnas.
