Rewarding Bad Behavior

Invent bullshit legal theories, get published in the WSJ! Money quote:

The first thing any lawyer will do is tell his clients to shut up. The KSMs or Abu Zubaydahs of the future will respond to no verbal questioning or trickery -- which is precisely why the Bush administration felt compelled to use more coercive measures in the first place.


This from the guy who was one of the principal actors in authorizing torture. John Yoo should be locked up in jail for the harm he's caused (maybe waterboarded, which he wouldn't consider torture, for kicks). Instead, conservative institutions give him a louder megaphone from which he can spew his bile. Somebody please prosecute this assclown.
