    How will they spin this bush43 appointee as a terrorist-enabler? Will they even mention that Judge Leon was a bush43 appointee?

    Maybe they could remand him to a psychiatrist, like they did with Vandeveld? To quote Iron Jawed Angels, "In oranges and women, courage is often mistaken for insanity." Probably true for activist judges with funny eyebrows, too.
