...Oh, stop all the blathering and hang the bastard.<br /><br />Or at least impeach him and disbar him. All the legal opinion writers from Bybee to Yoo to Gonzalez have apologists out there whining, "You can't punish a man for issuing a legal opinion."<br /><br />By that standard, the guys who told Stalin executing anybody he felt like it was okay were also innocent. As were Hitler's theorists. As was Hitler himself. And since everybody down the chain was "only following orders..." Well, you get the idea. Terrible crimes were committed, but nobody's guilty. Except, maybe Lindy England.<br /><br />But issuing really bad legal advice is surely excellent evidence of legal incompetence.<br /><br />Fire them! Fire them all!<br /><br />Crankily yours,<br />The New York CrankThe New York Crankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04489472134701718697noreply@blogger.com
