text: Mr. Schuman obfuscates the issue.  It is irrelevant whether the judges involved have written or spoken so as to reveal bias.  All that matters is the action they have taken on the executive order and its justification based on the constitution and the law.  The judges can be considered progressive and political if they take action that extends the reach of the courts beyond traditional boundaries, i.e. gathers unto the courts more power than they had before.  Of course, the courts are assumed to have the power to determine constitutionality of executive orders.  But the constitution is silent on the rights of non-citizens, non-resident in the US.  Existing law apparently gives the President the power to set immigration levels based on security concerns.  The court extended its power by claiming the right to determine what is and is not relevant to national security, at task for which they are very poorly suited.
