    It's possible that a lawsuit won't even be necessary because President Obama could reverse it based on the fact that it was put in place based on faulty statistics, such restrictions are bad for the economy, breeding and selling snakes are a big industry and bring in badly needed revenue, and that the rule won't solve the stated problem in the Everglades.

    He said in his State of the Union Address tonight that he doesn't support such government regulation that can be handled by the citizens themselves. He also stated that he supports "American ingenuity". I think snake breeding would fall into that category.

    The cost of enforcing such a rule would cost alot of money and have no real benefit, and I really don't think he wants to be associated with something that will hurt this country on so many levels.

    This is a Florida issue that got blown way out of proportion, and he'll probably end up pulling the plug on it before any more of the proposed species are added.
