Law Talk #7: The Most Radical Injunction

The Ricochet Law School faculty lounge has re-opened after an extended closure for renovations (the custom made combination beer tap/LexisNexis terminal is working wonderfully, thanks for asking). This week, Professors Yoo and Epstein (ably guided by host Troy Senik) opine on California's soon-to-be-freed prisoners, presidential war powers, immigration, and San Francisco's unkindest cut. Or lack of it, as the case may be.
Here's the best news: this week's edition of Law Talk is free for everyone. Click here to listen in your browser. If you're a Ricochet member, you may subscribe in iTunes here.

Blue Yeti, you really have outdone yourself with the photo for this podcast. Hilarious. Once again, this podcast is easily worth the Ricochet price of admission.

John and Richard... your genius is being overshadowed by your producers. This is a danger sign.

Is there anyway we can get CLE credit for listening to these? Two high-powered law professors talking law. Surely, that ought to qualify for some CLE credit. Heck, it would be the best CLE I've ever sat through, by far.

On the War Powers Act, obviously the Congress has shown no interest in enforcing it, but could the courts? The scenario I'm envisioning is a member of the Air Force or Navy refuses to participate and uses the "illegal order" defense against court martial charges of insubordination on grounds that the Libya intervention violates the War Powers Act.
Also, on Richard's point about slippery slopes in case law, Eugene Volokh has a good article on this.

David,We are working on creating an opportunity for CLE credit. Stay tuned.

Extremely well done, though I was hoping for a circumcision/uterine wall Mark Steyn cross branding opportunity and a little more Code of Justinian riffs from Richard. But Troy "Ginsu" Senik, you knocked it out of the park on this one.

I was half joking, but that would be great. Be sure to get them qualified here in KY.

Thanks, Pseud. Like most home runs of recent vintage, mine are attributable almost entirely to performance-enhancing drugs.

Great minds and all that:

Wow, I'm mostly in absentia for a coupla months to take care of some stupid entrance exam requirements, and when I come back, I've found Ricochet's instigated Law Talks. Seven of them.
How cool is that?
Can't wait to catch up! I'm sure they're much more interesting than the goop I've had to study. I heart Ricochet.
And I double-heart Richard Epstein. (I'm sorta glad I've never had Epstein as a flesh-and-blood teacher, as I'm sure an über-painful schoolgirl crush would be the result. No disparagement to the dapper, martini-drinking Yoo intended.)

Re: Law Talk #7: The Most Radical Injunction
This post at PJ media implies that the proposed SF ban on circumcision is more than a little bit racist. Certainly the source of the comic seems to be pretty dodgy. Have any Comic book cogniscenti any idea who these folk are?
"Foreskin Man" seems a rather creepy individual to me.
