The way I read it, Chief, aside from the broader implications of the specifics of the memo, which I've also read, I see the penalties of refusing to speak power to truth. In the end, the results of blind obedience are an ugly mess which is an experience akin to saving someone from drowning. Be sure to place something, anything, between yourself and the person drowning so you aren't killed while trying to save them.
Kow-towing to the President, as Yoo did, is a misuse of that office which was established of the People, by the People... In his unthinking obedience to Power, Yoo has done himself, and those he served, a dishonor, and harmed countless generations of others.
This has been a dark time for America. Surely not quite so dark as Nuremberg was for Germany, but we've come || <- - that close, and time holds places for those who follow blindly.
The world has grown weary of the: "I was just following orders" mentality of the sheep in wolves' clothing, those who have hidden throughout history, masquerading as heroes in this world, looking for a gang-fuck to participate in because they are too stupid to find a purpose of their own. Thugs, rapists, con artists, and sadists all of them.
That very same world looks, to those issuing those orders, and wakes them from those nightmares of theirs which have been disturbing the rest of us.
Night tremors are one thing, man, but you're waking the baby.
