This article is idiocy.

Were you in favor of George Wallace when he stood in the door at U of A, to prevent "those Coloreds" from entering, as the judge had ordered?

PS, read the Federalist Papers, and the US and FL constitutions re: the weak executive.

Maybe you should re-read them. No. 78 says the courts can't enforce their own rulings - - - that's the executive's job. So when Greer commandeered cops to "enforce" his edict against state police, he was usurping executive authority. Jeb shouln'dt have let him get away with it. Jeb should have told those local cops that they answer to him, and if they resist a state agency, their salaries (and pensions) would be frozen. That would have sent them off on a donut break, fast.
