Okay now back to criticizing Pres. Obama

Regarding the military courts. They are part of the judicial system. They are an inferior court created by Congress, appeals of military court system rulings go from the military courts system of appeals directly to the Supreme Court. Constitutionally the Military Court System was created by an Act of Congress and can only be modified by an act of Congress. The Military Court System is not part of the Federal Courts which are a separate inferior Court System also created by Congress. This is High School government class level stuff that President Obama and his team should know. Team Obama will get their heads collectively handed to them over this. And POTUS taught “Constitutional Law”? Where the bleep is the White House staff to keep this twit from making idiotic moves like this? Opps, I forgot they made the decision and are now just beginning to study it.

Interesting. So this is a textbook separation of powers violation?

I thought Bush was involved in getting this started. Does that mean Bush put in a request that was simply honored (vs. Obama’s, which was not)?

What about the talk of the Pentagon dropping the charges?

Realistically, the very idea of a politician interfering with an trial in progress does seem like the sort of thing that we would very definitely have rules against - and that our “Constitutional law professor” should be keenly aware of. We may be heading towards being a Banana Republic, but maybe we still have some remaining legacy from when we weren’t.
