Vice President Cheney has exempted his office from a presidential executive order designed to safeguard classified national security information by claiming that the Office of the Vice President is not an “entity within the executive branch.” Today the LA Times reveals that the President has also exempted himself:
The White House said Friday that, like Vice President Dick Cheney’s office, President Bush’s office is not allowing an independent federal watchdog to oversee its handling of classified national security information.
An executive order that Bush issued in March 2003 — amending an existing order — requires all government agencies that are part of the executive branch to submit to oversight. Although it doesn’t specifically say so, Bush’s order was not meant to apply to the vice president’s office or the president’s office, a White House spokesman said.
W T F ?
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:14 amWell, then, dum basses, if it doesn’t specifically say so it APPLIES!
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:15 amit’s a matter of whether Waxman catches Cheney before the ‘09 or not
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:15 amYou know, this is so elementary it’s hard to believe even this administration is trying to get away with it.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:15 am#1, konflikt, you had the same reaction as I did. I’m hoping that anyone with half a brain has the exact same reaction.
Time to impeach!
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:18 amahahahahhaha hahahahahhAHAHHA
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:23 amSo, does this mean Executive Privilege does NOT apply to the Vice President and perhaps even the President? I’m all for that.
If you’re not in the Executive, you’re against the Executive.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:23 am“We don’t dispute that the ISOO has a different opinion. But let’s be very clear: This executive order was issued by the president, and he knows what his intentions were,” Fratto said. “He is in compliance with his executive order.”
but NOT CLEAR ENOUGH TO WRITE IT IN THE ORIGINAL ORDER?!?!?!
this is the craziest thing ive heard yet.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:24 amThanks for the Saturday morning laugh.
With this bunch that’s just about all you can do these days.
IMPEACH!
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:24 amWrite Nancy Pelosi and tell her what you think. Do it today and do it often. It is part of my morning ritual.

June 23rd, 2007 at 11:24 amFor 222 years we got LUCKY!
For 222 years we were working under a massive Delusion.
For 222 years we deluded ourselves there laws that run this country and governed the activities of our Government.
George Bush has demonstrated time and again those “laws” are little more than a “Gentlemens’ Agreement.”
An “Executive Order” exempting themselves from ‘obeying the law’?
Who exactly is supposed to ‘arrest’ George?
Republicans have clearly shown they aren’t the “Gentlemen” to do it.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:25 amHoly crapinahat, Batman, it’s dipsydoodle time again. Mayhap Cheney and Bush are receiving messages from god.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:27 amLet’s see if ABC, CBS or NBC report this latest outrage in the evening news tonight or anytime over the weekend.
WTF!!!
I’m convinced now that Bush will declare himself dictator soon. All that we need is another terrorist attack and we’re ****ed.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:28 amWell, Well Rep. Waxman and Rep Conyers….Do you suppose you could get going on Articles Of Impeachment forthwith? huh….Just maybe these criminals are hiding something….ya think?….maybe something to do with 9/11 or the stealing of elections or OUR Treasury?… TIME TO IMPEACH NOW…THESE CROOKS BELONG IN JAIL….REMEMBER …. RULE OF LAW!!!
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:29 amPerhaps its time to stop acting like “Gentlemen”?

I do believe that you are right. But, he won’t call himself Dictator, he will call himself the Dictator Guy.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:32 amThe Decider, The Big Dick and their accessories are a rogue nation unto themselves operating outside of our constitution and above U.S. and international law.
It’s no use pretending we are a constitutional republic any longer. We are now living in a state of outright fascism and the only way to take our country back is to force congress to impeach them both.
http://www.impeachbush.org
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:33 amLooks to me like the United States now has its very own self-appointed Fuhrer and vice-Fuhrer. And what is there to stop them from doing this? The sock-puppets in the Supreme Court, or Congress, most of whom have been bought off, threatened, or both?
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:35 amHe’s correct, he’s not part of the executive branch, he’s part of the Nazi
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:35 amparty.
It’s good to be king.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:36 amI realize this is issue is a little complicated, but nothing will turn the American people against Bush, and Cheney faster then saying they are above the law.
And so far I haven’t found a single constitutional scholar who sides with them on this issue. They may have finally stepped so far outside the law, that impeachment will be demanded. I just wonder if they can do it before 2009?
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:38 amNow in my uneducated opinion, THIS would qualify as a Constitutional Crisis!!!! Apparently we no longer have an Executive Branch as proscribed by the Constitution.
If the Congress refuses to do it duty by impeaching the criminals who are tearing apart our government, can we as a people sue to MAKE them do their duty????? What remedy do the people have????
Is there anybody out there who remembers what our country used to be???
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:45 amwtf?
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:45 amImpeach, indict-
The question is, who will be the piss-boy? It can’t be Pelosi.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:47 amThe American people would be outraged, IF the msm ever told them what was going on any more. Will this even get mentioned, probably not.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:48 am“…as proscribed by the Constitution.” Comment by foolme1ns — June 23, 2007 @ 11:45 am
foolme1ns, don’t make the same mistake that Valiant Venus did - it’s “prescribed.” :-)
.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:49 amAs was raised by Krazny, constitutional scholars have not come forward to defend this and I look forward to their arguments if and when they do. Of more immediate interest, no trolls have yet put in their two-cents on this thread (which, of course, is too much to pay for their opinion). But, all jokes and put-downs aside, the standard for intellectual rigor is substantially lower for trolls and yet there is nothing being said.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:49 amIf the executive order doesn’t apply to the president’s and the VP’s offices, Bush must believe that everyone (dozens? hundreds?) in those offices safeguards classified national security information properly– that they are more trustworthy than people in the FBI, Pentagon, etc. I wonder what Bush’s evidence is for his belief.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:50 amI’ve been all over Pajamas Media and conservative sites to see the outrage. Total silence on this issue.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:50 amIn a country of the people, by the people, for the people this is called dictatorship. No man is exempt from “trust but verify” or else there is no reason for anyone to follow the law at all. If the people that are temporarily allowed to work in the positions of the president and vice president can get away with this then what protection does Americas system have from a human being or two that have gone mad with all that power in their hands? How is this any different in substance from a King?
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:53 amVery valid point peter, this is an attempt to set the executive office above the other branches of government, and exempt it from any oversight at all. I wonder how the right wing would have reacted if Bill Clinton had tried a similar tactic? They would have demanded lynch mobs in the street.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:53 amCandyce, notice there are no trolls so far on this or the Olbermann thread? Hmmm…
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:54 amImpeach, indict and imprison these traitors. They pick and choose which laws to follow, which means the government of, by and for the people is obsolete in the USA.
I was originally against this Congress impeaching Bush, because so very many screwups demand their attention, and Congress will become bogged down in the process. In addition, I surely didn’t want Cheney taking over the presidency. But with each succeeding day, the high crimes, misdemeanors, and flat-out incompetence of this misadministration is exposed, and now, there is only one way to restore the respect and integrity of the Executive Branch. Impeach Bush/Cheney NOW!
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:55 amArticle One: Legislative power
Main article: Article One of the United States Constitution
Article One establishes the legislative branch of government, U.S. Congress, which includes the House of Representatives and the Senate. The legislative branch makes the laws. The Article establishes the manner of election and qualifications of members of each House. In addition, it provides for free debate in congress and limits self-serving behavior of congressmen, outlines legislative procedure and indicates the powers of the legislative branch. There is a debate as to whether the powers listed in Article 1 Section 8 are a list of enumerated powers. These powers may also be interpreted as a list of powers formerly either executive or judicial in nature, that have been explicitly granted to the U.S. Congress. This interpretation may be further supported by a broad definition of both the commerce clause, and the necessary and proper clause of the Constitution. The argument for enumerated powers can be traced back to 1819 McCulloch v. Maryland United States Supreme Court ruling. Finally, it establishes limits on federal and state legislative power.
[edit] Article Two: Executive power
Main article: Article Two of the United States Constitution
Article Two describes the presidency (the executive branch): procedures for the selection of the president, qualifications for office, the oath to be affirmed and the powers and duties of the office. It also provides for the office of Vice President of the United States, and specifies that the Vice President succeeds to the presidency if the President is incapacitated, dies, or resigns, although whether this succession was on an acting or permanent basis was left unclear. In practice, this has always been treated as succession, and the 25th Amendment provides explicitly for succession. Article Two also provides for the impeachment and removal from office of civil officers (the President, Vice President, judges, and others).
[edit] Article Three: Judicial power
Main article: Article Three of the United States Constitution
Article Three describes the court system (the judicial branch), including the Supreme Court. The article requires that there be one court called the Supreme Court; Congress, at its discretion, can create lower courts, whose judgments and orders are reviewable by the Supreme Court. Article Three also requires trial by jury in all criminal cases, defines the crime of treason, and charges Congress with providing for a punishment for it.
[edit] Article Four: States’ powers and limits
Main article: Article Four of the United States Constitution
Article Four describes the relationship between the states and the Federal government, and amongst the states. For instance, it requires states to give “full faith and credit” to the public acts, records and court proceedings of the other states. Congress is permitted to regulate the manner in which proof of such acts, records or proceedings may be admitted. The “privileges and immunities” clause prohibits state governments from discriminating against citizens of other states in favor of resident citizens (e.g., having tougher penalties for residents of Ohio convicted of crimes within Michigan). It also establishes extradition between the states, as well as laying down a legal basis for freedom of movement and travel amongst the states. Today, this provision is sometimes taken for granted, especially by citizens who live near state borders; but in the days of the Articles of Confederation, crossing state lines was often a much more arduous (and costly) process. Article Four also provides for the creation and admission of new states. The Territorial Clause gives Congress the power to make rules for disposing of Federal property and governing non-state territories of the United States. Finally, the fourth section of Article Four requires the United States to guarantee to each state a republican form of government, and to protect the states from invasion and violence.

Comment by Emerald — June 23, 2007 @ 11:55 am
Don’t forget Gonzales!
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:56 amThe president has already said that the constitution is nothing but a gotdammed piece of paper and this shows his contempt for our rule of law.
Nancy Pelosi’s email address is: AmericanVoices@mail.house.gov

WRITE THEM! DEMAND WE RETURN TO OUR RULE OF LAW!
If people don’t start to do something immediately, our country will reach the point of no return. Bush already has an executive order in place to call martial law at any time for any emercency he so chooses. Congress will become powerless. Who is going to do something then? They already ignore Congress…Congress won’t be able to stop them.
People talk about the election in 2008 and a transition in 2009. If martial law is called, do you think elections will take place? If they do take place yet the emergency takes place in the days or months before Jan/09, will that transition happen? WHO WILL ENSURE THAT OUR RULES OF LAW ARE FOLLOWED??
These people are power hungry criminals. They are war criminals against other countries and they are criminals of our own rule of law.
WRITE! WRITE! WRITE!
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:56 amJane,
it would have to be the whole crew, from Bush down. A clean sweep to remove the trash, and establish a law abiding government.
June 23rd, 2007 at 11:57 am“What will we tell the children?”
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:00 pmKrazny, let’s not forget the appointees to the SCOTUS. When Bush was originally elected that was (and continues) to be my biggest fear. I do think we will eventually rid ourselves of this administration, but the supreme court is the gift that will keep giving and giving (or in our case, taking and taking - our rights, that is).
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:01 pmWell, Bush may be right in this case.
He has said repeatedly that he is the head of the ADMINISTRATIVE branch, and not the Executive branch!
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:04 pmI consider this to be a Constitutional Crisis. When the executives declare themselves to be outside or OUR government and the rules and laws of that government, then there can be only one remedy. They must be removed from office immediately before they can further damage OUR government.
It is passed time to impeach and indict these traitorous criminals.
It is passed time that we demand that our congress does its duty!!!!
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:07 pmTo be honest, I’m baffled by this statement too.

June 23rd, 2007 at 12:11 pmPerhaps congress should look over the SCOTUS nominees as well. If Bush is removed, perhaps a case can be made to remove Alito, and Roberts
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:12 pmKnow Thy Enemy: The Patriot Act
Ultimately, the Patriot Act gives unchecked power to the Executive Branch of the government. That’s unconstitutional. The constitution sets up the government so that it’s run with check and balances of power-the legislative and judicial branches should have equal power to that of the executive. Under the Patriot Act, that doesn’t happen.
God Bless The Enabling Act!
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:12 pmEr, I Mean……
God Bless The Patriot Act!
It’s not the law, it’s Calvinball!
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:15 pmMAF54, it’s nice to know that we can agree on one thing, anyway. You are right in that it is political suicide, but that will only happen if other news outlets actually report on this, and the rest of the country actually realizes what Bush and Cheney are stating.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:16 pmIt is true. It is true. They are not part of the Executive Branch but by his own decree King George has given himself Royal Prerogative.
Let us just stop ignoring the elephant in the room. It is wearing purple and thinks it is King by divine right.
Let us also hope that he give up his throne peaceably when the time comes.
The Dems should have a friggin catalog of these instances available at a moment’s notice on the campaign trail, waving them in the air like dirty underwear at every opportunity.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:18 pmMAF54, Habeus Corpus is the thing in the constitution that makes the othe rights enforcable. Without it, the constitution becomes a gotdammed piece of paper. Without it, there’s no remedy for ensuring you have any rights should you be carried off in the middle of the night by someone in the government. With no Habeus Corpus, you could disappear and never be heard from again.

June 23rd, 2007 at 12:20 pmThis teacher says it’s homework time for George and Dick.
1. Take out your copy of the US Constitution and read Article II, about the Executive Branch. Don’t worry, it’s not too long.
2. See all references to the phrase “Vice-President.
3. In your own words, describe and explain the “Vice-President” as part of the Executive Branch. Turn in your test at the beginning of class on Monday morning.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:22 pm** Tee-Shirt Idea **
You know how wingers have shirts, bumper stickers, and stuff with John 99:01 or whatever; how about:
US Constitution:
Article II Section IV
These guys are so crazy. Now they’re just rubbing everyone’s face in their insanity because congress lets them. Not only am I pissed at Dems for not immediately impeaching these clowns, but i’m even more pissed at GOPers who continue to support a WH that is clearly anti-American. Talk about hating your country, it’s just disgusting.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:24 pmHabeus Corpus is the thing in the constitution that makes the othe rights enforcable.
Habeas has been suspended before. The idea of three branches of the government has never been challenged. That was my point.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:29 pmTime to impeach!
Comment by Jane E. Schneider — June 23, 2007 @ 11:18 am
Impeachment will remain off the table until a Democrat is elected President.
Didn’t you get the memo?
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:29 pmThe dems now have the perfect opportunity to impeach. Any republican votes against impeachment would be a vote against our constitution.
Let’s watch the spinmasters spin that!
Why do I have to follow laws yet they don’t? Where’s the outrage there?
And someone said it perfectly…if Clinton had tried this, he’d have been tarred and feathered and then drawn and quartered and then fed to the chickens.

June 23rd, 2007 at 12:33 pmBuh Bye Executive Privilege then.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:34 pmFrom the article:
2003, the same year we invaded Iraq, and Valerie Plame’s status as a CIA covert agent was revealed, and the CIA Covert Operation for tracking WMD was “declassified.”
And now we’re told that the President and Vice-President are exempted from oversight, and have been all along.
And, he’s right, because Impeachment is off the table.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:36 pmSeen as the executive branch is in fact, the presidency, does this mean Bush has resigned?
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:36 pmI wonder if we won’t go straight to arrests in the white house, just jump past the impeachment process, and send in the FBI.
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:37 pmTIME FOR A NATIONAL STRIKE!!!!
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:37 pmDear Speaker Pelosi,
With the recent proclamations by Vice President Cheney, and now President Bush, that they are not a part of the Executive Branch of our government, and are therefore above the Constutition they are circumventing, it is imperative for the Legislative Branch to take action. These acts by the Executive Branch are treacherous, and are the very platform upon which prior tyrants have come to power.
I understand why Impeachement was previously off the table, but in light of these current proclaimations by the President and the Vice President, We the People see no viable alternative. Even if you don’t have the votes, and even if the opposition resorts to name calling, you must now consider the ramifications of not standing up to this obvious power grab that will destroy our 226 year old Democracy. You have the support of the American people. Please value it more than you value your position.
Sincerely,
June 23rd, 2007 at 12:40 pmThey weren’t elected. So they’re not part of the government.

Writing letters helps improve our handwriting and typing skills and that is great. Doing so lets the Dictator know (through his minions) that you dissent and your name and your address. Rest assured that even if it appears that there are sides or points of view in this dictatorship the actual truth it that plutocrats (congress) are minions of the Dictator.

You got to admit the hubris and arrogance of these treasonous bastards is unparalleled. And pardon me for saying so, but you can’t get any Orwellian than Bush issuing an EXECUTIVE order then claiming it doesn’t apply to himself and Cheney because they are not the EXECUTIVE branch of government. Simply Fu%*ing Amazing.

Ah yes. Many liberals will object to a death penalty you seem to be advocating, you know, but I’m sure you with all your political purity and rage will just silence them by force if necessary - like you’d do with those who oppose mindless mob action like a general strike and actually favor democratic means like a due process in Congress.
I guess you’ll just silence your conscience by making yourself believe that you’re a good soldier for the revolution and that ends will justify the means.

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Yes, and that was during the Civil War which is one to the circumstances when it can done constitutionally. The other is invasion. We are under neither of those conditions and His Highness has no business f*cking with it.
June 23rd, 2007 at 1:26 pmA couple of days ago, Vice President Cheney declared, oddly, that his office was not part of the Executive branch of our federal United States of America government. Now a second three-year-old, our little Royal Bushie, has decided that he also wants to play that “No no, no” game: Bush has declared that his office is also not part of the Executive branch of our federal United States of America government, as far as any oversight by an independent federal oversight agency is concerned…
Some Republican bigwig said a couple of days ago that “reality frightens the progressive blogosphere” or some such. I guess that Cheney and Bush are really scared by reality - even a thin sliver of slight oversight has them sh*tting proverbial bricks… Will the lying compliciit corporate baloney media bother reporting these musings by Cheney and Bush and the implications thereof?
What are Cheney and Bush hiding? Can’t they just plead “insanity” during their upcoming treason trials?

Yeah, not to mention this:
We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality — judiciously, as you will — we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.
There you have it. Der Shrubbenfuhrer and Big Time Dick are creating their own reality…which applies to them and them alone.

I’ll return the favor of your honesty in your earlier comment: Not really.

This is taking us onto shakiy ground, Wretched. I’m totally w/ you in your rage here. This kind of gets at waht’s so wrong w/ BruschCoâ„¢, though, and shows where this sort of thing drags us all if we’re not careful.
The problem w/ Gitmo was that we “libruls” wanted to mollycoddle the “terraists”, it was that by resorting to torture, we had become as bad as the peopel we were fighting. We were no longer pulling the world up to a higher standard, we had sunk down to their level.
If we do not hold OURSELVES to certain standards, then we are no longer the people we claim and want to be.
I feel the same when I read some of these hyper-vitriolic statements here. Don’t get me wrong, i say some awfully sharp, nasty things here, but if you start talking mob violence, we’ve lost, because we become JUST LIKE THEM.
I totally agree w/ your rage, BTW.
June 23rd, 2007 at 1:49 pmYep, if the highest office in the land is not bound by any of the laws of said land then it is a full blown DICTATORSHIP. Now watch the Congress do nothing. So, now you know what is at stake. The will of the People is the Law of the land!
