        If MLK was JFK's National Security Advisor and campaign buddy. Yes. Otherwise no. Seems nonsensical as a metaphor to me.

        yes, it's obstruction no matter how much you like the guy. An investigation is just that. It's not an indictment.

        That would be JFK actually stopping the commission of a crime. Illegal spying on an American not obstruction. #MLKWasntACriminal

        @MattMackowiak @KarlRove Good question. Was MLK Jr. an unregistered foreign agent for Turkey who served as NSA for JFK?

        Telling FBI to stop digging for blackmail dirt and get back to investigating crimes is tad more legit than getting your friend out of a bind

        Yes, although I think the real question there is can President halt investigation that is objectively unconstitutional w/o obstrctn charge.

        If JFK told FBI to not advise suicide over an affair, would that be obstruction of justice?

        Hoover, with gaping holes in his own morality, was taping MLK's sex life. How was that in the country's interest?

        It's not obstructing justice, it's exercising prosecutorial discretion just like Obama did.
