Do you agree with John Yoo that the President is above the law and can resort to torture?

Posted by admin on April 26th, 2010 and filed under reality executives | 12 Comments »

The Yoo Doctrine or Unitary Executive theory, are controversial since it is suggested the theory holds that the President’s war powers place him above any law.

Comments from debate where Yoo defends position of president torturing children.

Cassel: If the President deems that he’s got to torture somebody, including by crushing the testicles of the person’s child, there is no law that can stop him?

Yoo: No treaty.

Cassel: Also no law by Congress. That is what you wrote in the August 2002 memo.

Yoo: I think it depends on why the President thinks he needs to do that.

If you caught a guy in your house that knew where the bomb was that was going to blow up your child’s school in 10 minutes, would you ask him politely if he would mind telling you where it was?

    Isn’t that what we fought the Revolution for? So that we’d be able to have Big Government that can beat the sheet out of anybody it wants, spy on them without warrants or court orders, run amok totally without any control, bankrupt the country. Oh wait, that is what we fought the Revolution AGAINST.

    Absolutely.

    The President is Commander-in-Chief, and can issue any orders to the military or federal law enforcement necessary to get the job done.

    No one is above the law, he has a situation right now where he has all the marbles, if the democrats win in November that will change, you will see so many congressional investigations into his dealings that it will make Bill Clinton look like a saint. Even at that he should have to answer to the international community for his crimes against humanity.

    I would have to agree that nobody should be above the law, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that nobody is. Those royal blooded Illuminati have throughout history believed themselves to be superior to us useless eaters. Just because they are descendents of the Nephilim.

    No that guy is extremely traditional and stupid.The president brakes the law he should go to jail the law counts for every citizen including politics.Their is also war laws which should include not torturing innocent people. The president does not need to do this at all.Yoo and the president do not have feelings.
