“It’s cheating, sir, and it’s cheating good people who work,” the judge told assistant Attorney General Brian Devlin. “It’s also not honoring the (United States) president, who took (Detroit’s auto companies) out of bankruptcy.”
Aquilina said she would make sure President Obama got a copy of her order.
“I know he’s watching this,” she said, predicting the president ultimately will have to take action to make sure existing pension commitments are honored.

Erm, no, Obama dishonors Obama.
Citing an unconstitutional Michigan state law. Detroit city officials cannot indebt the entire state of Michigan to pay for their sweet-heart city employee pension plans. That is what the law this judge is hanging her hat on to claim that the city filing for federal bankruptcy is "unconstitutional", when what she means is "illegal" based on an unconstitutional law.It wasn't even state-level, it was a county judge..

She looking to get a Federal Judge appointment.She is grandstanding and has no authority to do this. In fact, it is illegal for her to do so. She needs to fire up the Lexis and look up "Automatic Stay."
Well if I lived in Detroit, I'd be feeling all warm and fuzzy now!
Judge just Bangs the gavel and all their problems go away.
Reminds me of Alice in Wonderland but no glass slippers.
