There is a fundamental difference between a time when the great English
jurist Coke cringed as King James threatened to beat him physically with
his own hands... and a world in which the Supreme Court of the United
States could order President Nixon to turn over evidence to a special
prosecutor.... Centuries of struggle, sacrifice, and bloodshed went into
creating the ideal of a government of laws superior to any ruler or
political organ. -- Thomas Sowell
