You're talking about an 'air of legality'? An air of people who know the laws and are familiar with the issues? An 'air' of people who know what they're talking about? Is that what you're saying?
I don't see how having people present who know the facts and statistics of the issues would conflict with 'themes and policies'.
How do you come up with themes and policies if you don't have facts readily available?
I'm missing something here... it still doesn't make sense.
Your mistake is that Obama cares about laws in the first place. It isn’t MY reasoning, it is Obama’s reasoning. No official enforcement representation present.
He just didn’t and doesn’t want the opportunity to arise that one of his minions would grow a pair and suddenly get some ethics during some cabalish meeting of the principals involved..
