Judging by events John Yoo is correct in the legal and political senses. Much of this goes back to his grandfathers days.

Why should I think Yoo was correct if morally bankrupt? Historical and contemporary examples abound. The interments of WW2 held up in court. The sedition laws of WW1 and rabid censorship of US mail was never prosecuted. They were withdrawn not overturned. (IIRC)

Nobody from CIA has ever gone to jail for lying to the President, Congress or the rest of us. The Patriot Act sunset clause is proving to be a lie. “Homeland Security”. Just the name tells you everything you need to know about how wrong it is to even exist in it’s present form, and what a boondoggle most of that money has been. FISA has made a thin near fiction of probable cause.

So, someone, anyone show me where the law has acted is if any of this is as illegal as many say.
