As much as I appreciate seeing the anti-birthright people getting a 7-way beating on the merits, part of me wishes Roberts had just stood up and said: “motherf***ers, an EO is just an email to your staff. It’s not a law, and it damn well isn’t an amendment. Get the f*** out.”
Even better would be for him to add “and you numb-nuts in the media: stop writing headlines that treat EOs as anything other than sharpie-scrawled letter stuffed in one of those brown interoffice envelope things. For f***’s sake: They. Are. Not. Laws.” But beating on the merits it is, I guess.
In case you can’t tell, I am just exhausted by all this EO nonsense being taken seriously and thus ending up being serious. We need a new Schoolhouse Rock about “I’m just an EO.”
