GOP: "Meet your new Inspector General, comrade."

Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, said last week that the judiciary wasn't doing enough policing of itself. His plan would create an inspector general to oversee federal courts including the Supreme Court. The inspector general would be directed to report any judicial misconduct to the Justice Department.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., has proposed a separate plan to cover lower federal courts only.

Ginsburg said her concerns were about the legislative branch setting up a so-called guardian for the judicial branch. She also said there have been discussions in Congress about limiting the scope of courts.

Bush is claiming he isn't subject to the legislature. The legislature is claiming they're not subject to the judiciary. I guess that's the new standard conservatives have for 'limited government'-- limited to doing the personal bidding of Republican politicians.
