"Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever they can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often a real loser; in fees, expenses and waste of time." -- Abraham Lincoln, (1809-1865) Lawyer and President who saved the United States.
"Without opportunities on the part of the poor to obtain expert legal advice, it is idle to talk of equality before the law"-- Justice Chas. Evans Hughes
Heh. That was my first thought too.
It's "eyegore..."
Do you also say "Froaderick"?
danged ol' activist judges! How dare a non-elected, life-time appointed old man in a black robe pull the plug on a fine presidential executive order.
But this time, it'll be the greenies b1tchin' and moanin' the above. Which is refreshing.

I think most green people are pretty nuts, but I have a hard time rooting against them knowing that their heart is in the right place...

Great gobs of the stuff in fact.
And the fact their opposition to nuclear electrical power production is mindless and absurd. Heck, even the dumb ol' French figured it out. I bet the Frogs are up to at least 70% of their electrical production from nuke plants. And they're building new nuke facilities as I type this.
IMHO, we should be generating electricity with nuclear power, and converting the coal with which this nation is blessed into gasoline. The Nazi's were able to do that by 1944 to run their vehicles despite the fact we were bombing the ever-living crap out of them day and night.

Pray tell, how exactly would air travel be possible without fossil fuels? Are you suggesting that we can somehow magically develop electric jet engines? Are you suggesting we can, within this centrury, move people and all commercial goods by road, rail and or water exclusively by electricity produced by solar and wind?
