Attkisson Booed By "Real Time" Audience For Saying Congress Co-Equal Branch Of Government In Discussion of GOP Letter to Iran (RealClearPolitics)

SHARYL ATTKISSON: You're going to disagree with me but I'm going to go ahead and say it. I feel like you can argue it both ways and I can see arguments on both sides that I feel like what they did as a co-equal branch of government is equivalent to what the president did in deciding that he had a moral imperative to go it alone on things that are important to him but that Congress may not agree with. You either think that the president --

-- is right in doing that or that the Congress did the same thing, they have an equal right. Or that you think that Congress is wrong and that the president, as a co-equal branch of government, also should be wrong to take that initiative.
