As supreme executive, he is obliged to act in their defense, and no court order can relieve him of this responsibility.
Any order by Judge Greer that seeks to prevent him from doing his sworn duty, as he sees fit, is invalid, and any attempt by the judge to incite armed forces to enforce his order would be an act of judicial insurrection against the constitution and government of Florida....
...If any state governor, or the president of the United States acts so as to encourage the judiciary to assume such executive power, or the people to believe that it may constitutionally do so, he undermines the integrity of all our constitutions, and of American self-government as a whole.
This is what I keep on saying, as Rush Limbaugh and many others keep repeating the phrase "rule of law," which serves as an excuse for the Bushs' lack of action. What Dr. Keyes states is so crystal clear - how can these people miss it?
check comment/editorial #2817. Seems Greer may not have SWORN do do anything at all...
