"Bush didn't have to file a brief at all. Rush is NOT a legal expert. I stand with the President on this."
I have not read the brief. BUT, if what Rush says is correct, the pres did go back on his statements. BTW MM, I betcha Rush has access to better, more informed Constitutional law experts than you or I.
I was a victim of quotas when I went to law school and it cost me a bundle. If you want details, I will be glad to provide info in private e-mails.
There is no doubt Rush has more constitutional law experts at hand than I do. However, I do think that Ted Olson is on the President's side, along with a few others in the DOJ, so I don't necessarily think that Rush's opinion trumps the President's.
I am certain you were a victim of this stupid policy. I do not support it..nor does the President. I think people should calm down and read the brief, as I intend to do this eening, and quit letting Rush do the legal interpretation for them. Rush may say he is all-knowing, but i have found that not to be the case.
