You remember this post? It picked up off Thoreau@Jim Henley predicting that Dick Cheney would try to invoke executive privilege in respect of something he did after ceasing to be Vice President. If there’s one thing we’ve learnt about this man it’s that whatever warped evil you attribute to him will be nothing compared to the reality; I raised the bar, suggesting he would try it on after ceasing to be, full stop.
Well, the first scenario is now being seriously considered. I would say mine hasn’t yet been tested simply because the, ah, biological requirements are as yet unfulfilled. In related news, if you recall this post, about the quantum uncertainty surrounding Dick Cheney’s constitutional role, you’ll be pleased to know they just collapsed the wavefunction, and good.
