Rule of Law
By Via Crooked Timber, John Gibson outdoes himself:
But the point is, the temple of the law is so sacrosanct that an occasional chief executive cannot flaunt it once in a while, sort of drop his drawers on the courthouse steps and moon the judges, as a way to protest the complete disregard courts and judges have shown here, in this case, for facts outside the law.
Yep. Now that’s called disregard for the rule of law. It’s good to see that our modern conservative has such a fine appreciation of unfettered executive power. Our rulers SHOULD be unbound by law, the popular will, and any sense of human decency. That would be great.
