That's not the point of this thread. A dem appointed judge decided she's above doing her job.

Slowly but surely we are dying a death of a thousand pin-pricks.

We better go BALLS OUT now and kill everything that moves or we're going to get to a point where we'll have no power to throw a rock at a muslim.

I guess Congress should also run a war, with votes for every battle.

Constitutionally, ONLY congress has the authority to declare war. They also provide funding. A little known fact is that the President provides a status update to congress every 60 days under the War Powers scenario (which is what we have today). Don't be silly about battle plans being voted on. Congress actually does approve and fund the plans.

MM: If I had wanted to say it was Bush's fault, I would've said it was Bush's fault.

No, I'm saying that my opinion of Gonzales is that he isn't a wonderboy lawyer. IF he wrote the legalese in that EO, he was a slacker, leaving the door open for this judge.

Yes, I DO have great disdain for the judge, but there had already been several tons of disdain for the judge deposited on the thread, so why add mine to it, unless I had a specific point to add?

BTW, I have no idea if AG or HM had anything to do with the EO. It's likely, but I don't know.

Clear?

IP: President Bush signed the EO. How could it possibly have nothing to do with him? Of course it has something to do with him. However, my point had to do with Alberto Gonzales, not his boss. So, your comment is misplaced.

The Judicial branch is not supposed to legislate. It's really that simple.

Neither is the Executive branch supposed to legislate.

This thread has nothing to do with Alberto Gonzales or Harriette Myers, your post is misplaced.

another terrorist group.........JACC.

EXACTLY !! When will the legislators of this country have the courage to stand up and inform judges that their job does not include making laws! Although the Calif legislature is probably just as bad as the judges in Calif. I am FED UP with having judges endanger our country while those we elected to "represent us" do nothing.

Maybe President bush could tell the judge that there is no controlling legal authority.

But the Executive Branch is in charge of keeping our country safe. You might want to re-read your tag.

I read this as yet another example of liberals saying the war is over, which is tragic, because actually, it's barely even begun yet.

They will have Bush naked, prostrated and re-educated by the time he leaves office.

Already being done, voluntarily - part of his "new tone in Washington" policy of inaction and appeasement.

Remember Zell Miller's War Cry at the National Convention!

" By the time They are done, We won't be able to throw Sitballs at Our Enemies!"

He is right! They will rule rocks are to dangerous to throw at the terrorists. Invite them to dinner and talk to them and they will be our friends, Yuk!!

The Democrats of yesteryear are no more, they are truly the Demorats of today!

I don't know that I disagree with this judge. What the heck does "otherwise associate with" mean exactly?

If your brother in law plays poker with someone in this group is that covered?

It is too vague...

Wow, you missed Section. 8.

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

Back to school for you ;)

If you go far enough right or far enough left you end up in the same place - an ugly idealistic mess devoid of reality. People can whine about Bush on immigration and spending but when it comes to the WOT Bush has done about all he can do given the spolied American people.

Screw you, judged.

We're going to have to fight these guys with the same dirty tools they are using against us.

Do you want to protect the terrorists, or do you just hate the President that much? And what does the judicial branch have to do with the legislative branch?
