This ought not be blamed on President Bush who is four square against this travesty.

It is up to the states, now up to three--Mass., CA and NM--to deal with this.

This does illustrate why the president foresaw the need for a Constitutional amendment as a most likely needed remedy.

I'll guess that you agree with the article at the end of the link you posted. If not, then the following isn't meant for you. :)

Well, then, how exactly is the President of the United States supposed to make a county official do what he wants? This goober's decision is wrong, to be sure, but he isn't breaking the law, either NM or US. Ergo, W can't send in the National Guard.

Now, if the Constitutional amendment is passed, we have a whole different kettle of fish. W does support that. That is about the extent of his power in this matter, though.
