Interesting predicament: Paul Clement is from Wisconsin, and arguably agrees with WRL's position, but yet has to argue against them.

It could be that the Pres might have thought that IF if were unconstitutional that Scotus would kill it.

But doesn't that imply that he was violating his oath? To uphold and protect the consitution.....and signing something that he believes isn't means he didn't do that.

Not necessarily...after all he's a businessman, not a lawyer.

I think this is the first piece of crappy precedent to be thrown out the window once Alito is making the call. Might as well get started. Also, let me just say how happy I am that Roberts seems to be more rock solid every day.
