My point to those "real conservatives" reading, is that expecting the president to weigh in on this or any other matter before the Courts, is anatema to their constitutional governance stance, and in fact, they are advocating politics over the constitution.

Hardly Luis, there is nothing anti-constitutional about the executive filing an amicus brief.

Likewise, there is nothing anti-constitutional about Senator McConnell filing against CFR.

Hey guys!

Welcome to the jungle.

In none of the cases you both put forth, and this may be a silly difference in semantics, is the president himself involved. It's all done, as I said (sort of) in my original post, through the office of the Solicitor General .

Or am I wrong in that? I am not familiar with the intricacies of government.

After all, I'm just one of them non-assimilating immigrants out to destroy western civilization.
