Bottom line (and this will be illustrative to those who still believe in the rule of law) is that since there is no penalty for noncompliance, the communist homosexual in the White House not only will refuse to comply, but will do so loud and proud.

Nonsense. Cite one instance where the Obama administration has refused to comply with an order issued by a federal court including the Supreme Court.

Obama must address the order and try to overturn it or get a different ruling from another federal court at or above this level. He can't ignore it. Refusing to comply is not an option. This is not to say that this ruling will not be overcome by our Lawbreaker in Chief.

Did you know the Obama administration’s position has been defeated in at least 13 – thirteen — cases before the Supreme Court since January 2012 that were unanimous decisions? It continued its abysmal record before the Supreme Court today with the announcement of two unanimous opinions against arguments the administration had supported. First, the Court rejected the administration’s power grab on recess appointments by making clear it could not decide when the Senate was in recess. Then it unanimously tossed out a law establishing abortion-clinic “buffer zones” against pro-life protests that the Obama administration argued on behalf of before the Court (though the case was led by Massachusetts attorney general Martha Coakley).

The tenure of both President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder has been marked by a dangerous push to legitimize a vast expansion of the power of the federal government that endangers the liberty and freedom of Americans. They have taken such extreme position on key issues that the Court has uncharacteristically slapped them down time and time again. Historically, the Justice Department has won about 70 percent of its cases before the high court. But in each of the last three terms, the Court has ruled against the administration a majority of the time.

IRS documents. “Refused” means they won’t. Delay delay and delay also means they won’t. It’s just a nice way of saying refused.

Option A is to get another judge to remove this injunction.

If he can’t (and he most likely can), then he will just then simply decree something similar with the same effect.

Look at the NLRB case.

At the end of the day, the GOP was defeated by Reid and tricked into confirming a bunch of communists anyway in exchange for Reid not invoking the nuclear option (we all know how that turned out).

The effect of the SCOTUS ruling just changed the players, not the game. None of the decisions by the illegal appointees were overturned.

This is not a win.

You “win” against communists when they go to prison and are removed from power.

That is the only true measure of victory.

I'm happy about the injunction. Go Gov. Abbott!

Now then ...

Hornbeck Offshore Services LLC v. Salazar <-- Case citation should be italicized but wasn't for clarity's sake.

Yes, he can. I think that was his campaign slogan. He meant it.

Refusing to comply is not an option. 

Yes, it is. Refusal is always an option, especially for Obama.
