    If I were cynical which of course I'm not

    I'd say they're setting us up for gutting the Supreme Court. All of this will wind up in the SC, and Bush's handpicked team will pretend to decide on it but Bush has zero intention of paying attention to their determination. Afterall he could open up his graphic novel version of the Constitution would tell him the SC has zero enforcement power. That way one of the three branches of government is eliminated leaving the Executive Branch and precarious opposition in the Legislative branch.

    —Ciscero
