[history]
A judge blocked the six-month moratorium on new deepwater drilling imposed by the Obama administration after the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, a ruling the White House immediately said it would appeal.

Moral of the story, libs: Activist judges legislating from the bench can sometimes come back and bite you.
When an overreaching executive branch crashes head-on into an overreaching judicial branch, sometimes, things work out!

“....a ruling the White House immediately said it would appeal.”
When things don’t go your way, even though playing by their own rules, fight among each others. That’s funny.

U.S. District Judge Martin Feldman appointed by Ronald Reagan.
I knew Marty Feldman was a better judge than actor.

U.S. District Judge Martin Feldman

The precedent for overturning the ban was by judge Abby something.

There goes any hope of Judge Feldman’s promo to the Court of Appeals or SCOTUS. I’m sure he cares. /sarc
