So much for a Yoo/Bybee show trial.


(Via Hot Air Headlines) Actually, there are two reasons why the Left is going to be upset:

For weeks, the right has heckled Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. for his plans to try the alleged 9/11 conspirators in New York City and his handling of the Christmas bombing plot suspect. Now the left is going to be upset: an upcoming Justice Department report from its ethics-watchdog unit, the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), clears the Bush administration lawyers who authored the “torture” memos of professional-misconduct allegations.

The first reason is, indeed, that their fever dream of seeing Yoo and Bybee in the dock – or even subject to disbarment – will die, choking.

The second reason is that ‘heckled’ is a poor choice of verb for what we did to Holder. ‘Overruled’ works so much better.

Health care reform talks are collapsing,Ted Kennedy’s seat fell to a Republican, Obama got laughed at outright during his SOTU, the KSM trial will be moved, and now this.

This one is MMM MMM good….and you’re so very correct; the Left will absolutely choke on this deliciousness, this vindication of Bush!

 

"Humiliated" works well too

Such a Bitter Pill for the Left

to swallow. Oh well, they will just order up more Kool-aid.

Think about this for just a moment. Professor Yoo wrote an OPINION. On a piece of paper. And the Left wanted to criminalize a legal opinion and disbar him.

Progressives. Can’t get along with ‘em. Can’t slap ‘em.

No, but I’d pay to have the pleasure of doing so to several of them.

Slap ‘em, I mean.

Paying to slap Progressives

may be the only taxable business left in America after O is done looting it.

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
