Here is a short video, in case you haven't heard it yet:

I saw the clip originally on Pharyngula, here (http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2008/07/astonishing_pusillanimity.php)

Here's an amusing game: (mentioned on Pharyngula, natch)



Gary Farber has invented a game (http://amygdalagf.blogspot.com/2008/07/stump-yoo-play-home-game-june-26th-2008.html), "Stump the Yoo". Go ahead, think of some outrage you would propose as a hypothetical to John You, just to see him squirm.

Gary suggests, "Can the president order the arms of a suspect eaten by wolves while still attached?"

How about, "Can the president order a suspect to be impaled for his lunchtime entertainment?"

Or perhaps, "Can the president order a suspect to be repeatedly drowned to the point of suffocation?"

Your turn. Can you think of a question that would get John Yoo to say simply, "No, the president cannot order that"?

Reading some of the comments on Pharyngula, #27 is a gem:

Q: Can the president order all the books he has read (both of them) in alphabetical order?

A: No, the president cannot order that.

Q: Can the president order a decent cup of coffee at the Vatican?

It's said that this is even beyond the Pope's power (really) 8)
