"The suggestion that the President issue an order without legal authority to do so was pretty ridiculous."

Looked at the OSHA org chart lately? It's still a division of the Department of Labor (an executive agency), reporting to the head of the executive branch. Do you know who that is? Really, Roscoe, this is beyond ridiculous. You Bush-is-really-just-a-powerless-moron apologists are doing no one any good. He's not powerless, and he's not a moron. Why do you keep pretending he is?

With the responsibilty of applying the laws enacted by Congress.

If you have a legal basis for judicial review of the OSHA activities at issue, say what it is.

If you have a law or case precedent that allows a President to order regulatory interpretations by decree, cite it.
