8. One pundit said that the law contained a mechanism for that.

Not that I see.

Actually, one pundit was avidly saying that perhaps he should just ignore the law because we're a democracy and the president, being democratically elected, represents the people. (Well, d'uh, you'd think Congress might do the same. And apparently that idjit would say we'd be wrong.)

Another was sarcastic about that possibility and called it "executive nullification"--Congress makes suggestions that the president signs to indicate he'll take it under advisement, apparently.

Sometimes it's not just worth chewing through the restraints in the morning.
