But when that right gets bastardized by the appointment of someone who lacks all qualification for his jobs-a la a Kenneth Adelman or a William Clark-or of someone who has demonstrated an avowed antagonism to the principles he is supposed to serve-a la a James Watt and now Edwin Meese-the Republic is diminished. And Congress must step in to prevent...
