   I kind of like Cass Sunstein

   That’s a here’s-a-picture-of-me-in-my-mom’s-bra-and-panties moment, Dan.

   You’re a brave and crazy man.

   In about 20 minutes, he and I investigated the legal details. He asked me to explore all sorts of issues: the president’s power as commander in chief, the Constitution’s protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, the Authorization for Use of Military Force and more.

   Obama wanted to consider the best possible defense of what Bush had done. To every argument I made, he listened and offered a counterargument. After the issue had been exhausted, Obama said he thought the program was illegal, but now had a better understanding of both sides. He thanked me for my time.

   So it took Baracky 20 minutes to decide he was right all along and that Cass was full of shit. And Cass thinks this is something that has earned Baracky an enthusastic, sloppy scrotum tongue bath. Cass is in love I think.

   From Cass…
   

   In the 2000 campaign, Bush proclaimed himself a “uniter, not a divider,” only to turn out to be the most divisive president in memory. Because of his certainty and lack of curiosity about what others might think, Bush polarized the nation. Many of his most ambitious plans went nowhere as a result.

   As president, Barack Obama would be a genuine uniter. If he proves able to achieve great things, for his nation and for the world, it will be above all for that reason.

   After the 2000 campaign, I think in 2001 (can’t remember the date, Cass, can you?), everything seemed to change. There was this ‘war’, as answer to that change, and President Bush led this nation as he saw fit, led us with the dogged determination that served this country well in all of our previous wars (except for maybe Vietnam, another Democratically sabotaged event). Bush has had nothing but opposition, this media- and Democrat-led and fed polarization on his watch, but still he’s nearly led us to achieve a victory, if we just finish what we started.

   Obama? He’s running to cut and run, to raise taxes, to socialize medicine, to ‘change’ for it’s own sake.

   If Obama ‘proves able to achieve great things’ it will be not as a uniter, Cass, but as teaser. He’s an excellent pretender. But I don’t think he could polish Bush’s shoes, much less fill them.

   Olbermann — he’s like Sullivan without the accent.

   In 20 minutes they fully investigated what Justice Department officials worked on for weeks, if not months?

   Pull the other one; it’s got bells on it.

   We are anti-mendoucheous, if it means what I think it means (anti-douchebag?).

   However, I’m not able to translate Donklepiphantic. No clue whatsoever.

   “In about 20 minutes, he and I investigated the legal details.”

   Twenty minutes for a legal review? Sorry, that is not possible; no way, no how. I call shenanigans on that sentence.

   Thanks for getting ahead of me there, Rob.
