In this week's podcast

Nancy E. Roman, director of CFR’s Washington office and an expert on Congress, discusses the looming power struggle between President Bush and Congress over Iraq. She says the new Democrat-controlled Congress appears to be trying to amplify public disfavor over the war and could use its oversight authority to put administration actions under unprecedented public scrutiny.
