Nope, President Bush DID try to undo almost all of Clinton's EOs and was told that there were many that he was NOT allowed to...and this by the SCOTUS; IIRC. This was back in '01, prior to 9/11 and was all over FR. If you need to check on me, do, by all means; just go into FR's archives.

And as to the Congressional elections, this year, I am quite cognizant of the fact that this is not a presidential election year; unlike the UNAPPEAEABLES here. I also mentioned, in my list of refutations, things which the GOPers in both Houses folded on. OTOH, I failed to mention how much Newtie caved to Clinton...thusly blowing your post to smithereens! ;^)

In fact. Bush rescinded EVERY Clinton EO. The only things he could not rescind were the land grabs that Clinton perpetrated under the Antiquities Act. He did not have the power to overturn another President's proclamations, only Congress has that power.

LMAO - The SC never prevented Bush from overturning previous EO's. It is certainly within his purview to do so - not even the SC could prevent this.
