Add power to the Supreme Court’s voice: Boil it down. Say it loud. Say it often.
As I noted in a comment to Glenn Greenwald, let’s stop fretting about the future and focus on getting the essential matter out to the public as simply, clearly and repeatedly as we can:
“The Republican Supreme Court determined Bush broke the law and said the president’s criminal behavior must stop.”
Nobody can counter that convincingly, so let it resound from the rooftops. If we argue theory or fret about what-ifs, we invite distraction and spin. Let’s promote a clear, sharp focus instead.

Well, maybe not so as to convince you or me. But the Bush loyalists will doubtless be convinced by their own sputtering bullshit about “liberal activist judges”. As far as those folks are concerned, Justices Stevens and Kennedy are ACLU stooges.
Still, on the broader point, I agree. Let’s trumpet this opinion, and its basic message: the Supreme Court says the President is not a king!

I got it.
Kept it simple, too.
Now we wait…
