GREAT LITTLE INTERVIEW OF JOHN YOO...

GREAT LITTLE INTERVIEW OF JOHN YOO HERE. EXCERPT:

• Were you close to George Bush?

No, I’ve never met him. I don’t know Cheney either. I have not gone hunting with him, which is probably a good thing for me.

• Weren’t you invited to the White House Christmas party during your two years at the Department of Justice?

I don’t think so. That’s the way the government works. There’s the attorney general, then the deputy attorney general and then an associate attorney general. Then there’s the assistant attorney general, who was the head of my office.

• So you’re saying you were just one notch above an intern, you and Monica Lewinsky?

She was much closer to the president than I ever was.
