Like I said in the other thread about this.

The founding fathers instituted 3 separate supposedly equal branches of government.

And give them 3 separate powers.

But also give them oversight power over one of the of the branches.

Legislative is it check on executive is a check for judicial, is a check on legislative

, when one falls down of the job. Bam, impeachment, appointment, and strike down

what if 2 falls down? The executive and legislative is feckless, what now constitutional crisis?
