Another GOP unfact from Politifact. This quote from Bob Goodlatte (R-Va) earned a "false" rating: "9-0 decision last week was the 13th time the Supreme Court has voted 9-0
that the president has exceeded his constitutional authority." (Apparently, Ted Cruz, [R-Outer Space] has made the same kind of statement.) Well, sorta-kinda if you live in the GOP alternate reality. But it turns out that of these 13 cases, eight originated during the Bush administration. And some really didn't involve "executive overreach". You'd think that once in a while they'd be able to find something real to whine about. Then they wouldn't have to make things up and make such fools of themselves.
