Subject: Georgie Porgie Will Endorses Nicky Rosenkrantz/C-U News Gazette

Champaign-Urbana Native Georgie Porgie Will and Nicky Rosenkrantz deserve each other:
"...the appropriation power, Rosenkrantz testified, is Congress' "most potent check on executive overreach"-"the ultimate  backstop" against "a willful president." If Presidents could disburse money without an appropriation, "the careful constitutional separation of powers would  be thrown into disequilibrium.""
-----------------------------------------------
As if Nicky could give diddly-squat about the Constitution, or the Rule of Law, or the  Separation of Powers, or the Hyperimperial Presidency. Nicky tried to get hired here. His resume clearly stated that he had worked for the war criminals John Yoo and Jack Goldsmith at the Department of Injustice, Office of Legal Counsel. Nicky  used the war criminals Yoo and Goldsmith as his personal references to be hired. The Yale Law Mafia in operation again, including the Chair of our  Appointments Committee and later fired Dean.  I went ballistic with the Faculty: We are not going to hire a War Criminal on my watch and over my dead body! Those concerns did not bother the Faculty at Georgetown Law, where the guiding principle is as cited by Georgie Porgie Will: "What's the Constitution between friends?" Good riddance to Nicky Rosenkrantz and Georgetown Law! Fab.
Georgetown Law

December 1976
Right out of HLS
Looking for a job
So the path took me
To Georgetown Law

2 days of interviews
Seemed to go alright
Then ushered in to meet
Dean Butch Fisher
Who bragged about being
The youngest legal advisor
In the history of the State Department
36
Not impressed
But would play the game

Mr Boyle
The Faculty would like to hire you
But we believe you need
More seasoning
Salt or pepper, I wondered

We would like you to go work
For DOS Legal Advisor for 4 or 5 years
And then we will hire you

Are you f-ing serious
Sell my soul
After State just spent
The past 15 years
Committing genocide in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos
Exterminating upwards of 3 million human beings
Murdering 58,000 of my generation
Some of whom were friends
Are you f-ing serious Dean Butch
Who do you think you're dealing with

I politely declined and came here
Back then ranked the same as Georgetown Law
So I came out alright
But not to have the taint
Of the State Department
After my name

Where things have never changed
Murder, death, destruction, invasions
Assassinations, drones, genocide
Harold Koh fit right in like a glove

Fab
