Darth Cheney, shadow president?
So much new information about Dick Cheney "working in the shadows... on the dark side" has come out...
- The Washington Post has started a four-part series on Cheney's role in the administration. Part One and Part Two are available now; Parts Three and Four are due Tuesday and Wednesday. See ThinkProgress' synopsis of the first two days' worth. Co-author Barton Gellman had this to say: 9/11 didn't change Cheney's views; rather, he's had a greater opportunity to put them into action.
- Bush is trying to see if the Chief Executive can get away with saying he isn't part of the executive branch, either. Only Bush could think of something that retarded.
- Dana Perino proves again why she cannot hack the lying the same way past presidential spokespeople were able to. She's clearly got no idea how to answer the questions. On Friday, she even tried to dismiss this scandal as a "little bit of a non-issue." So, it's a non-issue when the executive branch breaks the law, violates the Constitution, and runs the country in the most secretive manner possible?
- Keith Olbermann debunks the White House's claim that Cheney was "specially exempted" from disclosure of classified information laws in one of Bush's executive orders.
- Cheney took advantage of Bush's "cluelessness" regarding environmental protection to take the lead in deciding what their climate change agenda should be. Anyone who's been following the beating climate change science has taken from this administration should have suspected this was the case from day one. Who is running this country - Bush or Cheney?
- Even most of the Bush lackeys at FOX News are having trouble swallowing this pill. However, Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol is still on the Death Star with Darth Cheney. Hmm... Kristol is one of Cheney's PNAC buddies... so it should be no surprise that Kristol is the only one defending him. This should be more evidence that this administration has run this country from a purely ideological platform, with no concern over what is best for the American people (and the world) as a whole.
- In what should come as no surprise to anyone, Attorney General Alberto Gone-zales is not planning on looking into anything inappropriate done out of Cheney's office. Stay tuned - Henry Waxman now must investigate Gonzo's handling of the situation.
It seems like the administration's game plan for dealing with a Democratic Congress is to force them to investigate EVERYTHING in an attempt to paralyze their ability to both legislate for the country and unearth the truth about all the questions surrounding their criminal organization - I mean - administration.
