"Unitary Executive"

Damozelheadshot3 posted by Damozel | From Marty Lederman at Balkinization:

""Every subordinate should agree with [the President's] views so there is a unified approach to the law."  So sayeth John Yoo.

Pretty much says it all, doesn't it?"
[So That's Why They Call It the Unitary Executive; link in original]

Yes, it does.  I had always thought the word for a regime that required all "subordinates" to concur with the views of the leader in order to ensure a "unified" approach was "dictatorship."
