Yoo Never Met Bush but Would Recommend He Torture People All Over Again

And why wouldn't he? Aside from a little nastiness from the rabble, there have been zero consequnces, and much upside.
You'd think a law professor would be a little more circumspect about using a new and improved Nuremberg defense for their actions, but then I guess you'd also think a law professor would understand things like treaties, and their obligations, and simple phrases like “[n]o exceptional circumstances whatsoever, whether a state of war or a threat or war, internal political instability or any other public emergency, may be invoked as a justification of torture.”

The nuremburg defense. Typical extremist right-wing horses***.

I just wish the Repubs would just come out and admit what they would like to do with the Constitution, then the whole nation will see just how little any of them can be trusted (of course, to those too stupid to accept that this country's present ills were created by their precious party, only mental health intervention is advised, and even that may not be enough).

I can only hope Yoo gets heckled right out of his position. He has no business being an educator.

[...] and use to turn public favor away from him and back to the GOP.  They set it up early on by arguing in favor of torturing terror suspects, by calling the health care reform bill an act of socialism, and by opposing the announcement of [...]

Do you support Ayers' position as an educator?

Why? Has Ayers done what Yoo did?

He founded a communist revolutionary organization that planted bombs in the USA.

So by that inference, are you calling me a Communist?

Can you read?
I asked you a simple question – do you support Ayers as an educator? You started a rant against Yoo, I am trying to find out whether you are consistent in your principles or just another political hack.

Is it a difficult question to answer so you have to resort to personal insults to switch the topic?

John Yoo also wrote the legal memos that undergird Bush's massive surveillance operation. Now we have first responders and nationwide Stasi-like Citizen Stalkers harassing and surveilling American citizens. Was this justified by the legal memos Yoo wrote or is this the result of the Attorney General under Bush rescinding anti-COINTELPRO regulations? We need a Truth Commission to get to the bottom of the Bush/Obama surveillance policy.

A rant? That was a standard question.

The inference is there, how else do you expect me to take it? And a personal insult? are you or are you not?
We've been waiting for you at the Taitz blog-you avoiding us, or have you finally seen the light?

Do you support Ayers as an educator?

I'll lay this out for you one time, and one time only.
I am an Iraq war vet. On the ground, in the s**t. I defended this country, and for bugs like you to allude that I would support anything that would do harm to this country is worse than irresponsible.
You don't do any better here than you do defending Orly, but at least we give you all the time you want on the birfer blogs.
Give up trying to gain cred elsewhere. We know who you are.

I take your non reply to the original question as a YES. You support a communist terrorist as an educator yet keep ranting about Yoo.

Which side did you fight for in Iraq?

Hey, bug-birfer,

I know life is tough, I have to use a zipper to go to the head, all you have to do is take your hat off. Don't wear a hat? Well, it's free advertising.
A birfer questioning someone elses patriotism? What's it like, knowing your mama raised a fool?

You kept dancing to avoid a simple question about Ayers.
