Cow manure. Nixonian comparisons and Hitler comparisons. You guys are tragic.

Yates was wrong. Period. She received an order from the Prez. Her obligation is to carry out the order, seek an opportunity to discuss concerns she has with the Prez directly, or resign. She doesn't get to engage in subjective politically motivated navel - gazing while directing her staff not to enforce the law.

Yates said late on Monday that the Justice Department would not defend the order against court challenges, saying that she did not believe it would be "consistent with this institution's solemn obligation to always seek justice and stand for what is right."

You get to claim a resemblance to the "Saturday Night Massacre" when you can prove that Yates was asked to fire Archibald Cox.
