#1 Taylor told Coppolino she could not grant the indefinite stay because "there is no likelihood" that her ruling will be overturned.

Lol. That's some case of terminal arrogance you're sportin...

She said granting it would allow "irreparable harm" to continue against the plaintiffs, a group of journalists, scholars and lawyers who believe their overseas contacts are likely targets of the surveillance.

Sounds like pure speculation, no? Unless their "contacts" are jihadi scumbags... And, if it's actually "irreparable", then why issue any stay at all? Bullshit.

If her original asinine decision isn't tossed out on its ass, then the entire "justice" system needs to be scrapped to ensure that Taylor and all of the like-minded assholes are removed from power. This falls under Presidential powers and these seditious traitors have to be taken out of the loop before they waste any more resources and do even more harm. Her decision was laughed at by her peers, but I don't find anything about it funny.

#3 And of course the right-to-privacy and the right-to-commit-treason of journalist and lawyers trumps the right to life itself of thousands of future victims....

At least according to this black-robed-prince...
