Yet your side would have the President reduced to function as a mere order taker for Congressional spending whims.

That's the job, though, of the President. Congress makes the laws, President executes the laws. That doesn't make him an "order taker" - it means that Congress gets to pass the spending laws, and the President follows them. Like every other law, the President has to do what Congress says, not what he thinks the law should provide.

The President isn't in charge of setting the rules for domestic policy - that's Congress' job, for the most part. The President's power is more in foreign affairs, which aren't really the area of legislative power. It's ironic that voters tend to base their choice of President more on domestic than foreign issues, but that's how the power is divided up.
