Condi and Cheney are like the Angel and Devil on W's shoulders it seems. Of course, sometimes this happens

you would probably be hard pressed to find someone in this administration that doesn't think that they are above the law

This is Waxman making a mountain out of a mole hill. Standard buearacratic squabbling. Nothing to get into a twist about.

US law applies to anyone in the US. Even is they are Vice President. Didn't we almost get Nixon impeached? Well he was President. Cheney Is only Vice President.

I 100% agree...it's not just in the capitol either...Governers feel the same way as well. Bil Richardson is the NM Gov, and he is one of the worst people I have ever met...if you think Cheney is bad, you haven't seen anything til you have seen this guy.

haha. They threatened to cut funding:

[quote]The Vice President has a choice to make. If he believes his legal case, his office has no business being funded as part of the executive branch. However, if he demands executive branch funding he cannot ignore executive branch rules. At the very least, the Vice President should be consistent.[/quote]

That ought to shut him up. For now, at least.
