I didn't think my post agreed with Yoo...Larry,<br /><br />I didn't think my post agreed with Yoo:<br /><br />Still, Yoo was being somewhat disingenuous here in that he imprudently saw relatively few, if any, constitutional limits on<br />executive power (i.e., the unitary executive), whereas Lincoln prudently stressed those same constitutional limits on his own presidential office. Americans should therefore remind themselves of Lincoln’s words of<br />the unparalleled nature of the crisis he faced in the1860s and resist the more boundless claims of his successors whenever they use the sixteenth president to justify their own civil liberties violations. <br /><br />I agree with you. Hmmm. I hope that is clear. Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10364076420545250465noreply@blogger.com
