Rory Reid gives this big statement that there's a "rule of law" that must be obeyed. Okay, that would be nice if it applied to everybody. Evidently, Rory Reid doesn't seem to think it applies that way.
RORY REID, SON OF SEN. HARRY REID: We believe in a country in which we are subject to laws and you can’t just ignore the laws we don’t like.---HotairWell, let's see. The President can just ignore laws he doesn't like and not enforce them. But this one, no siree Bob, this law must be enforced or else throw the book at the guy.
The hell of it is this: Reid may actually be wrong on the law. Somewhere along the line, Bundy may have been wronged. At least, I think it may be so.
I think what we could have here is a contest of wills. The left wants to impose its will come hell or high water. They are going to have to be opposed firmly.
Actually, Harry Reid said it isn't over. Whatever he says must be true.
Update:
An example of how laws are selectively enforced:
You may recall last year's Supreme Court decisions on same-sex marriage. There was a Proposition in California that the Governor didn't want to enforce, so he didn't send a state representative to the Court in order to defend the case. Since there was no state representative, somebody else decided to come in their stead. But the Court ruled that they didn't have standing, so the law was successfully circumvented.
So what do the Reids have to say about that one? Same-sex marriage is one of their favorite causes of the moment and this law passed by the voters of California went directly against that. But one of their own, Governor Moonbeam himself, wouldn't enforce it.
And the Court may not have ruled justly, either. The Constitution says everyone has a right to representation. In this case, the Court said okay if the Governor won't represent the people, the people lose. Some decision they made there. Some rule of law, eh? Some democracy, eh?
