Cheney - Emminence Grise

As the Emminence Grise of the Bush Administration, Cheney obviously has a lot to hide and, like a playground bully, will say and do anything necessary to get his way - in this case, to avoid revealing what he's been up to behind the scenes for the past at least 4 years. Funny that his office stopped reporting under the rules around 2003, just when the Bush propaganda machine got under way to invent the evidence to justify an invasion of Iraq. Cheney is spitting in the eyes of Congress and the American people. If he feels he is above the law -- a position that he clearly holds -- then he needs to be impeached. Among the many justifications for impeachement that he already merits, refusing to submit to Congressional oversight is juts one more, but it's a big one! Surely our Congress is not so ethically inert as to fail to do its job in this case?
