re: #57 elbruce

Cheney’s only ever been concerned about one thing his entire career: increasing the power of the Executive Branch. From his early career working for Nixon to the incredible powers he accumulated for Bush, that’s been his entire raison d’etre. By the end of Bush’s term, if it had come out that he had hired people to place bugs in the DNC’s headquarters, the nation would have collectively shrugged. So, mission accomplished for Dick.

What??!! It would have been Watergate all over. Impeachment on the spot. And rightly so.
