A minor p.s.: What's truly ironic if not a bit humorous about this debate is that I (and many, many others), in opposing the Obama administration in the DOJ matter, am actually the one defending Obama's openly stated position, while Obama's core supporters, in defending the Obama administration in the DOJ matter, are actually the ones opposing Obama's openly stated position. Go, as they say, figure. Things can't get much weirder than this.
