Cheney's Law

PBS aired a new Frontline tonight that highlights our current administration's fight to reestablish the power of the presidency. I found some of the actions by David Addington, Cheney's current Chief of Staff, and John Yoo, former Assistant Attorney General, to be especially disturbing.

While I have supported a good portion of this administration's policies, at what point do laws become meaningless? According to The Boston Globe, President Bush has claimed the right to ignore more than 750 laws enacted since he became president. I'm not sure I like where this is going.

I didn't see the documentary, so I can't really comment on it. But after reading your post I noticed this at Power Line (http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2007/10/018773.php) suggesting that interviewees were treated differently photographically. Did you notice anything like that? Just wondering...

From memory I would say that's accurate. It is clearly a "left-wing narrative." But I try to listen to all sides of the story. While I think the White House has lost some of it's power in the last couple decades, I'm still on the fence if that's a bad thing.
