Hell, Cheney SHOT A MAN and it blew over in, what?, a week ?

Not only that, the guy he shot apologized to him, I guess for getting his face in the way!

Been watching ‘All Godfather, all the time’ on A&E this weekend; Vito and Michael would be so proud of Darth.

I am cross posting this over at wheel’s place but those of you that think they won’t get away with it are missing the point;

alito and Roberts and Scala will say the president is correct, and what yoo said is correct, that is all that matters, popular belief, popular opinion, even the written law means absolutely nothing

the more they are exposed, they more brazen they will become, they can only move forward

it doesn’t matter that yoo’s opinion has been rebuked, refutiated, pulled, whatever, all that matters is that he was given a wink and a nod that his opinion will hold if brought before the scotus

yoo must be disbarred, there is absolutely no other choice

here’s what yoo wigwam and everyone else is missing;

we are playing by the rules and think the rules matter, they on the other hand have no rules

they have the ring

this is the end of the trilogy and they are now lord of the ring

what do I mean?

they can make, break, rewrite, and create from whole cloth any rule, any law, any presedent they want

imagine you and I are playing tennis and I not only have the official in my pocket but I don’t care what anyone thinks, nor does the official

well, I am going to hit the ball on two bounces, the official will first claim it was one bounce, when he is shown the video tape that I hit the ball on two bounces he will say, “but I already ruled and what I ruled goes”

then, the next time I hit the ball on two bounces the official will say;

“well, he did it before, there is no reason I am going to stop him this time around”

they are making it up as they go, they are making it up as they need it made up, they are brazen, they are depraved, they are sociopaths

the sociopathy they are demonstrating though is not that of someone born with the disorder, it is not chronic;

“it is because it is”

they aquired the power they have the power they are going to continue to use the power, it is what it is

they are now the lord of the ring

so, let me say this again, I have said it too many times but I must insist;

does anyone here

anyone at all

think they are going to give the ring to a black man or a women?

anyone?`

I don’t know if our new front page editor will let me milk this topic for yet another post, but yesterday, Sen Whitehouse was talking about yet ANOTHER case that, like Youngstown Steel, undercuts (actually completely contradicts) Yoo’s position in the memos–AND IS CONSPICUOUS BY ITS ABSENCE.

It’s a doozy.

but here is the problem looseheadprop, I have been saying this from the very start;

the president has a lawyers opinion that what he wants to do is fine, he and all those he ordered simply fall back on that memo, it doesn’t matter if it carries the weight of law, it doesn’t matter if it carries the weight of precedence, all that matters is the president has someone who is recognized by the bar writing an opinion and he claims he can use that opinion regardless of anything contrary

yoo must be disbarred, there is nothing else that matters less then impeachment and we know impeachment will not happen yoo must be disbarred

yoo is under the impression there is imperial rule, if the emperor does it becomes by that very fact, legal

Nixon said it best;

“if the president does it, that means it is NOT illegal”

this is the principle they are applying, they believe it with all their hearts and soles, they must believe it because if they do not they are all going to prison

they do not care that the president derives his power from congress, congress gave the president his power, by not impeaching him they are saying he does indeed have this power

since they will not reign in the powers of the president, all of this carries the weight of precedence and I guarantee

let me say that again;

I guarantee

alito and Roberts and Scala will say the president is correct, and what yoo said is correct

I guarantee it, I also guarantee yoo has a wink and a nod that if this is brought before the scotus they will agree with his opinion, he could not, would not have written that pedestrian opinion unless he was told it would stand

I tell you, yoo is not a moron, he is highly educated and knows the law, he knows what makes a good and a bad brief, he would not have written this one if he didn’t have the wink and the nod, he would not, he could not

it doesn’t matter that his opinion has been rebuked, refutiated, pulled, whatever, all that matters is that he was given a wink and a nod that his opinion will hold if brought before the scotus

yoo must be disbarred, there is absolutely no other choice
