I am quite close to going postal over comments like that.
It's why I am not here as much as I used to be.

Everytime I see a judge rules against common sense I happen to believe that the Legislative branch should pass laws designating terrorist organizations, with the Chief Executive either signing them in to effect, or sending them back with a veto. But that is just me. Others think that the chief executive should rule by Executive Order. We used to call those that believed in Executive Fiat Rule liberal Democrats. The infection has spread to FR.

You don't know what you're talking about. This has NOTHING to do with President Bush.

Good luck on getting Congress to name terrorist groups. By the time they got done with it...probably years later than when it was needed, the only two terrorist groups named would be Right to Life and the NRA.

"Now tell me genius, how is Bush supposed to stop a lawsuit and the findings of a Clinton appointee."
He should simply say "That's the Judges decision. Now let's see her enforce it."
It's worked before.

EO's are subject to judicial scrutiny?
It just now occured to me that one of the ways they will destroy this country and the Constitution is by making the Presidency a puppet office to .... a star chamber?
No wonder they want us to say insurgent instead of terrorist ... instilling terror is too close to home ... I said ...home.

How many divisions have the judge?
My advice to Mr. President: Tell this "judge" to go f#$k himself with a hot curling iron.

I guess Congress should also run a war, with votes for every battle.
You people are ridiculous sometimes in your "constitutional piety".

Andrew Jackson, right?
Andy Jackson had the advantage of no electronic media and a citizenry who didn't whine about everything.
Try to imagine the President IGNORING a judicial order in this climate. We would have 24-hour news hysteria and impeachment before the end of the week.

There's a faction on FR that just doesn't have knowledge of the way our country is supposed to work. There are 3 branches of government, I remember that from 5th grade. The Judicial branch is not supposed to legislate. It's really that simple.

Since when is national defense the purview of the Judiciary?
Judge Collins has made her decision; now let her enforce it.

Hysteria, definitely.
Impeachment? Not likely. How would the court's justify overruling a Presidential Order that was already deemed Constitutional?
But the gnashing of teeth and clawing of the flesh wouldn't be any worse than it is now.

even those of you who think Bush is a RINO. "THINK?"
Ah, perhaps you could enlighten this poor Conservative (who voted for W--twice) on other than his WOT and his tax policy (which it is rumored he may cave to the Dhimis and allow a tax increase) in what ways does Bush NOT qualify as a RINO???
To: NormsRevenge
I think the leftists actually want terrorists to succeed on Bush's watch so Bush can then be blamed for it. These leftists are going to get Americans killed. Presidents (both Republicans and Dems) will have no choice but resort to covert tactics to get around these judges. No President - not even a dem - will go along with this crap if their neck is on the line. Personal legacy in some cases can trump idealogy.

"This law gave the president unfettered authority to create blacklists," he said. "It was reminiscent of the McCarthy era." This just blows my mind
