>>>The Court enjoined the executive from taking the action you suggest.

The court CAN NOT arbitrarily do that. Thats the point of my post. If the court ordered Jeb to allow a man to beat his wife to death, I don't think Jeb could be required to follow that court order.

When the supreme court ruled that blacks were fractional humans it was wrong, and i think that bold leaders stood up and said NO. WRONG. Even though the entire courts of the day and the majority of voters felt that balcks were sub human. They WERE WRONG.

Of course Bush would appeal. If the higher courts let it stand, then it would be tougher if not impossible for Bush to act.

But you are ignoring that the Courts are enjoining Bush from doing something NOT requiring him to do something. That takes tie the hands of the executive some.
