I hear a symphony—It's the Supremes singing in chorus!
When it comes time to protect a Republican administration, that is:
If it's "vexatious litigation" resulting from a $70 million winger investigation of a blow job when the President is elected and a Democrat;No problemo!
But if it's "vexatious litigation" about governmental secrecy in an administration that wants to rule by decree when the President is appointed and a Republican—well, let's think twice! Especially in an election year!
Never has a double standard been so clear. IOKIYAR!
The president is not above the law, Kennedy wrote, but there is a "paramount necessity of protecting the executive branch from vexatious litigation that might distract it from the energetic performance of its constitutional duties."
