You answered your own question. It's not as if Gonzales if going out on a limb without Bush's approval: he's directly speaking for the President on legal issues. And the administration's, i.e. Bush's, position is that judges are not fit to judge law. Of course he's saying "national security" law, but our law doesn't make a distinction on this; we don't have specialty judges. It'd be like saying "judges should be able to rule on the second amendment, but on the 3rd and 5th they should defer to congress". That's another way of saying that the judicial branch shouldn't exist. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:225105 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
