Bush threw down an Executive order covering the VPs ass so nobody could question Cheney ... about anything.
he didnt need to be pardoned later he got his hall pass from the get go.
Ok, so Cheney got a "hall pass." For what, exactly? And don't call me a Cheney lover because I still think he should be tried for war crimes.
But, assuming Cheney did actually receive the aforementioned "hall pass." Does it follow that we must allow Obama to give Holder one, just to make it even?
Maybe we should set a number of "hall passes" each President can distribute before we can expect them to act within the law. That might clear up a few issues. Otherwise, we will never know when we can expect them to obey the law, or when we should ignore it when they don't. Originally Posted by CuteOldGuy
