CREDIT: AP Photo/Susan Walsh, File A federal judge’s decision declaring President Obama’s newly announced immigration policy unconstitutional has an unexpected — if somewhat tepid — critic: torture memo author John Yoo. Yoo, who once argued that the president’s power to act unilaterally is so expansive that the chief executive could order interrogators to crush a child’s testicles, wrote on Tuesday that Judge Arthur Schwab was wrong to “reach out and decide the action’s constitutionality.” To be clear, Yoo’s objection to Schwab’s decision is entirely procedural.
