While I was away

Kevin Baker was on a roll.  From Market Ticker:


So now we have a White House that has declared its intent to ignore a declaratory judgment.
The Administration has no right to do this. 
Obama's White House has exactly two options:

Comply with the ruling.  This means that any and all activity authorized or mandated by the Statute cease now.
 File an appeal and ask for a stay pending its hearing.  If said stay is granted, then the ruling is held pending consideration.
That's it.
Folks, this is clear.  The Judge in question, Judge Vinson, in fact sets forth exactly this in the opinion:


So the Obama Administration will not follow the rule of law.  However, the rule of law is the only thing to keep good men from responding and living under the rule of violence.  We give up violent retribution to live under the rule of law.  If the rule of law does not work, or is so corrupted that it now harms those it's supposed to protect, we will go back to the rule of violence until we can make the rule of law work again.

This is now a full-blown Constitutional Crisis.  The Executive's willful, intentional and publicly-stated refusal to honor a declaratory judgment is an open act of willful and intentional violation of The Separation of Powers in The Constitution and, if combined with the use of or threat of use of force as is alwayspresent when government coercion is employed, treads awfully close to the line, and may cross it, of 18 USC Ch 115 Sec 2384,

Saint Hopen'Change.  Wiping his ass with the Constitution every day he's in office.
