You seem to assume that these professionals from the past Bush administration would have totally disregarded the law and the Constitution in order to support the indefensible and/or in order to support an illegal policy.

Pretty loathsome assumption, methinks.

No I don’t assume this. But I assume a loop hole exists if we on principle don’t prosecute advisers who advise the ones who take the illegal actions.
