Thanks for the gift link.  For those who haven't clicked on the article, this is how it ends:

[quote]His lawyers would profit in particular from reading the last part of Judge Wilkinson’s opinion, which the press has ignored. It’s advice to judges and the President to avoid a clash.

“Now the branches come too close to grinding irrevocably against one another in a conflict that promises to diminish both,” he wrote. “The Judiciary will lose much from the constant intimations of its illegitimacy, to which by dent of custom and detachment we can only sparingly reply. The Executive will lose much from a public perception of its lawlessness and all of its attendant contagions.”

There is much wisdom in those words. Our constitutional system depends on checks and balances, but also on some flexibility in the joints of that balancing.

He has far bigger issues on which he will need the Supreme Court in the next four years.[/b][/quote][/quote]
