Do Yoo Read Me?

Welcome to Progcal where the news is all John Yoo, all the time. I just dug up this choice quote where Yoo basically defends getting the goverment to rummage through your credit card bills and library records:

Also, you don't have a constitutional right to privacy for those records. The general rule is: Once you give a record to someone else, you don't have a Fourth Amendment right to privacy any more. This includes records like credit cards and bank account information, which are not under your control. The same with library records; the objections to obtaining those are ridiculous.

Keep him on the faculty if you must, but John Yoo is definitely not the kind of guy I'd let anywhere near my file cabinet.
