FORUM « France's "model" health-care system | Lerach plea » September 17, 2007"Since September 11, 2001, this war has been lawyered to death" Michael Barone's U.S. News column on The Overlawyered War quotes former Justice Department official Jack Goldsmith in his book The Terror Presidency: The CIA today employs more than 100 lawyers, the Pentagon 10,000. "Every weapon used by the U.S. military, and most of the targets they are used against, are vetted and cleared by lawyers in advance," Goldsmith notes. Goldsmith, incidentally, can be heard on a new podcast in Glenn and Helen Reynolds' series. Posted by Walter Olson at 12:26 AM | TrackBack (0) |
