Bush defies judicial order

The Washington Post and AP are reporting that the Bush Department of Justice is refusing to obey a judicial order to hand over documents showing cause as to why they have detained an American citizen and are holding him incommunicado. They haven't filed an appeal, they are just claiming that their interpretation of the law supersedes that of the judge.


You'd think that Bush would have more of a sense of obligation to the judicial branch of government, given that's who put him in the presidency. He is tearing apart the Constitution.
