Yeah right. Bush was origially the one who told Texas to follow the World Court's ruling and ordered Texas to review Jose Medellin's case. Thankfully the U.S. Supreme Court smacked him down.

Story:

"U.S. President George Bush directed state courts to abide by the world court's decision and specifically asked Texas to review the Medellin case.

But, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Bush couldn't compel Texas to review the situation without concurrence of the legislative branch."

If you reread the post, Beef Dip, the hypothetical letter was written by Cheney and CC'd to President Bush.

You do know that CC means "courtesy copy" or "carbon copy", right? Operative word, "COPY", not that the letter was addressed to that person?

Or were you so quick, panting to the point of soiling yourself, to tell me something that I already know, that your brain and keystrokes didn't engage properly?

If you knew it already, why are you acting like such a baby about my post?
