johnson was 5-4. the anti discretion law was unconstitutional. these did seek to take that into account. we worked very collaborative with a very able lawyer, michael davidson, who was counsel to the senate at the time. i think part of michael's institutional role -- we also dealt with house counsel as well. but congress divided it up, and it seemed that the wisdom and advice was really coming much more from the united states senate, for whatever reason. so we worked very collaborative lee. we being in the solicitor general's office and the office of legal counsel, to defend the constitutionality of law, even though we testified to congress that it was unconstitutional. the interesting question is what happens when there is an intrusion by congress or perceived intrusion by the executive branch into its own prerogatives. your situation really does raise that very neatly, because the congress -- the president might very well say, based upon the advice of military, the chair of the joint chiefs of staff, this is affirmatively that for the military, we're not going to defended in court, not at all. we have kicked this back over to the senate, to the h
