John Yoo brings down the mental thunder on NYT interviewer ...

Deborah Solomon of the NYT interviews John Yoo here ... please go read it for yourself ...

Deborahs real thoughts in {brackets}

{Ok, let me organize my notes from Rahm and Axlerod. Now lets butter this turkey up alittle}

Your new book, "Crisis and Command," is an eloquent, fact-laden history of audacious power grabs by American presidents going back to George Washington. Which president would you say most violated laws enacted by Congress?

{LINCOLN !?!?!?! this idiot thinks Lincoln was the worst ???? Heh ... Obama is the black Lincoln. OK, No more Ms. Nice Gal}

Are you implicitly comparing the Civil War with the war in Iraq, in order to justify President Bush's expansion of executive power?

{Ok, don't answer the loaded question ... Do you regret writing the torture memo's ??? hmmmm ... ah , the "so called" torture memos ... gottcha, wiggle out of this !!! ...}

Do you regret writing the so-called torture memos, which claimed that President Bush was legally entitled to ignore laws prohibiting torture?

{ah ha ... So you admit that your "client" was George Bush (Nazi) ? Ok, cool it Deb, give him some rope to hang himself with}

When you say you had "a client," do you mean President Bush?

{nice dodge with that whole US Government thing ... Don't you work for me ? wait, Don't you work for "the people" ... thats better}

But isn't a lawyer in the Department of Justice there to serve the people of this country?

{Don't agree with me you dolt, you are too stupid to agree with me on anything ... lets get back to your "client"}

Were you close to George Bush?

{Never met him ?!?!?! right ... I'm sure you are lying there ... lets see ... I got it, Christmas Party !!!, I'll catch him in a lie, everybody meets their boss at a Christmas party}

Weren't you invited to the White House Christmas party during your two years at the Department of Justice?

{WTF ?!?!?! is this guy for real ??? 2 years in DC and not one White House party ??? are you even human ????}

So you're saying you were just one notch above an intern, you and Monica Lewinsky?

{NO YOU DID'NT !!!! Did you just diss the Clinton ??? Ok, calm down lets get him on those torture memos ...}

What led you to take a job as a professor of constitutional law at Berkeley, of all places, where you've taught since 1993?

{Blah, Blah, Blah ... left wing campus myth ... let's close the trap on you now my pretty ...}

I see various groups are protesting a decision by a California government lawyer to teach a course with you that starts on Jan. 12, claiming he is legitimizing your unethical behavior.

{Communists ?!?! COMMUNISTS !!!! great ... another McCarthy ... Got to defend my pals at Berkeley}

Are you saying the citizens of Berkeley are Communists, reminiscent of those on the dark side of the Iron Curtain?

{Ok, this guy is really out there ... When did you become a Nazi ? no, be subtle ...I wonder when he went nuts ? wait ... conservative=nuts, same thing ...}

When, exactly, did you become a conservative?

{Must have had a bad childhood, wait, it says both parents are Doctors ??? ah, come on, no way they produced a conservative, and a minority one to boot ... there must be something there ...}

You were born in South Korea and grew up in and around Philadelphia, the son of two doctors. What sort of doctors?

{Ah ha ... you are nuts ... or they made you nuts ... lets probe this ...}

What effect did that have on you?

{I hope none ??? yea, right ... wingNUT for sure }

Are they psychoanalysts?

{Didn't they try to cure you of your Conservatism ? nope, he'll just dodge that ... wait, I'LL analyze YOU ...}

A psychiatrist might say you are in denial.

The Milli Vanilli President ...

Obama is proving to be a no talent hack with a 2 dimensional image who was sold for mass consumption by the MSM.

The Obama Royal Media Seal of Approval

Sadly FOX News will not be able to display this badge of distinction ...

Are Democrats Telling Pollsters They are Independent ?

How else to explain the 20% GOP, 42% Independent and 33% Democrat breakdown of the WaPo/ABC poll ...

The World is Inside Obama's OODA Loop

The OODA Loop is the concept was developed by military strategist and USAF Colonel John Boyd. From wikipedia:

"According to Boyd, decision-making occurs in a recurring cycle of observe-orient-decide-act. An entity (whether an individual or an organization) that can process this cycle quickly, observing and reacting to unfolding events more rapidly than an opponent, can thereby "get inside" the opponent's decision cycle and gain the advantage."

At this point I think world and domestic events have gotten inside of Obama's OODA Loop and he is spinning out of control. Basically he has too many complex balls in the air at once and he is in real danger of dropping them all.

Lets look at the list:

• ObamaCare (self imposed event)
• Cap and Trade (self imposed event)
• Trade War with China (self imposed event)
• Afghanistan
• US Economy
• Stimulus Package (self imposed event because he made it a big deal)
• North Korean nukes (remember those guys)
• Iranian nukes
• Russia in Georgia
• Strained relations with Poland and Czech (self imposed)
• Strained relations with Britain (self imposed event)

Notice something ... much of Obama's stress is self imposed ... he really has no clue how much he is capable of handling ... I think the world already thinks he is over his head and many of our opponents are pushing hard to crack him ...

The Most Transparent Administration

"I have the most transparent administration in galactic history, oops, I mean in world history, oops again, I mean in G*d Da*n Amerikkkan history" - BH Obama

In The Dark

We, the American people, would still be in the dark about this second nuclear site if Iran had not gone public with it. Obama would never have put out that joint statement otherwise.

Just think about what this means.

We will hear about an Iranian nuke when Iran either detonates it or announces it. I'm glad I moved out of NYC.

Profile in Courage

From the WSJ ...

So let me get this straight.

In a historic first the President of the United States chairs the UN Security Council to discuss and pass a resolution about nuclear proliferation and he waits until the next day in PITTSBURGH to announce we have caught the Iranians red handed.

What a profile in courage.

Obama 's Dreams May Have Been Co-Written by Ayers

Over at American Thinker ...

The money quote from the book:

"In the end, Ayers's contribution to Barack's Dreams of My Father would be significant--so much so that the book's language, oddly specific references, literary devices, and themes would bear a jarring similarity to Ayers's own writing."

The con man mask is slipping ...

Reiham Salam is Confused

Reiham Salam at NRO makes the argument that fee-for-service is the problem in our healthcare system today.

So the simple free market concept of accepting a fee for a service is the problem. He argues that outcomes are what counts. Of course he is right, in a free market economy the outcome is the measure that people use to determine what services they will spend their own hard earned money on.

But when Peter the consumer goes to Mike the doctor and spends Paul the insurance company money on his health care that free market concept is no longer in effect.

The problem is not fee for service, it is your fee for my use of his service. In other words my outcome is paid for by your fee for someone else's service. That's not the free market.

Like I said confused ...
