Are you under the impression that on Jan 20th, everyone in the Executive suddenly becomes a Democrat?

Cali, Tex believes it is not possible for a lawyer to have broken the law with a legal memo, provided he says that it was his opinion.
Nor is it possible for a lawyer to act unethically or unprofessionally as long as it was hish legal opinion. |

Quite the loophole Tex has identified. I should begin plotting all sorts of crimes and label them all as my legal opinion. Then, when people act them out and pay me for my planning efforts, I have no culpability at all. Genius.

New York Times reporting the report was done in December and the investigation began much earlier than that. But keep saying it is totally political, Tex. No moral issue here. We are only discussing torture, after all.

What it does not illustrate is that it wasn't politically motivated. Unless you seriously believe that every individual in the Executive over the last 8 years was 100% loyal to Bush.

If I am ever a president of something in the church, I am going to want Tex as my counselor. he would definitely take the fall for me if asked.

If you're not disagreeing with that, then we're all good.
