The fastest way to deal with it was to deny the stay BlueKota Friday #9

Exactly. choie Friday #10

Yeah why worry about little kids going without BlueKota Friday #11

if she denied the stay, the administration could immediately go to any other justice and ask for it. onenote Friday #25

Because her job is to interpret the law, not set policy Jose Garcia Friday #38

No but I read a lot of commentary from lawyers BlueKota Friday #24

"So why are the courts, especially the SC, continuing to let him..." In It to Win It Friday #31

Simplicity is no replacement for Jackson's sophisticated operation of the legal machinery to prevent worse events. . nt Bernardo de La Paz Saturday #63

If she is so sophisticated and smart, couldn't she come up with a solution that did not make Irish_Dem Saturday #70

She is constrained by the law. I'm sure she has a much deeper understanding of it that I or you do. Bernardo de La Paz Saturday #72

She works for the American people and needs to explain herself. Irish_Dem Saturday #74

Jackson is aligning against those who starve children. She is NOT aligning with those who do. Bernardo de La Paz Saturday #82

You live in a country which is a constitutional monarchy, the British King is your head of state. Irish_Dem Saturday #80

Do not distract by telling me about the monarchy I do not want. I'm well aware of it. Bernardo de La Paz Saturday #81

I agree that Jackson is doing her best, but this seems more of a tactical decision than legal. Ilikepurple Saturday #85

My amateur sense is that Jackson knows that a majority of the Court is against us. yardwork Saturday #92
