I absolutely did. I had this story open in another tab because I wanted to get back to it and read it after posting, and somehow crossed my wires. I'll fix it. by  @PhilipTheBucket@ponder.catreason: Wrong thread |
| 3 days ago | mod | Removed Comment > Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III, nominated by President Ronald Reagan, a Republican, wrote that he and his two colleagues “cling to the hope that it is not naïve to believe our good brethren in the Executive Branch perceive the rule of law as vital to the American ethos.”
Until I read this whole verdict, I hadn't realized why people were making a big deal about it. It's breathtaking.
>>The basic differences between the branches mandate a serious effort at mutual respect. The respect that courts must accord the Executive must be reciprocated by the Executive’s respect for the courts. Too often today this has not been the case, as calls for impeachment of judges for decisions the Executive disfavors and exhortations to disregard court orders sadly illustrate.
>>This is a losing proposition all around. The Judiciary will lose much from the constant intimations of its illegitimacy, to which by dint 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.
>>
>>**The Executive may succeed for a time in weakening the courts, but over time history will script the tragic gap between what was and all that might have been, and law in time will sign its epitaph.**
>>
>>It is, as we have noted, all too possible to see in this case an incipient crisis, but it may present an opportunity as well. We yet cling to the hope that it is not naïve to believe our good brethren in the Executive Branch perceive the rule of law as vital to the American ethos.
>>
>>This case presents their unique chance to vindicate that value and to summon the best that is within us while there is still time.
Whoever wrote that should get a medal made of gold.
