John Yoo at an April 18 Civil Liberties debate (via blogger Roger Ailes):Like what John? That "(w)ar declarations do not play an important role in the domestic process of deciding on war?" That "(t)he declaration of war plays an important role in limiting the power of the federal government as it affects citizens, but it does not perform that function with regard to the executive branch?" That "the optimal level of war for the United States may no longer be zero?"[Since 9/11] we have had outpourings of new political speech through new methods and means, for example, uh, people I wish never existed -- bloggers.
This did not exist before 9/11. Are we really in such a civil liberties crisis if bloggers are able to use this new media to say I think quite incredible things?
Christ, what an asshole.
