"On what legal grounds does the President send in Federal Marshalls? If he is challenged in court, and loses (which he would), what then?"
He's the commander in chief and has the army, navy, marines, air force behind him. That's enough legal ground for moi. If not, send in the people.
Well, I'll tell you what, if he doesn't stop it, I for one will never vote for him again!
Settle down there, General. Do you have any Constitutional basis for him to actually do this? Wait a minute, of course you don't. Why don't we just do away with all the government except George Bush. He'll protect us is that it? I've yet to see any of you ardently supporting keeping the tube in this woman actually base anything relative to the Constitution, except to twist it's meaning to fit your immediate desires. But apparently, we just throw that document out and 'fix' it later, eh? What a precedent that will set for future generations...
And if he doesn't are you advocating armed revolt against the rule of law? For one woman that may or may not be alive? Been reading other pages on this issue all day long and I can't say I'm sure of anything anymore, other than the fact that the United States Congress or the President of these United States has any business in this situation.
