Obama is using the Hugo Chavez playbook.

When that pesky old Constitution gets in the way, ignore it, and attack anybody who stands against you.

Mr. Obama's notion of judicial review diminishes all the members of any court, not just its conservatives. It doesn't help the always difficult struggle for an independent judiciary in other countries if an American president is issuing Venezuela-like statements on U.S. courts.

You're got it, Travis - right from the Chavez playbook.
