What is so fascinating (and horrifying) is that they truly believe their own press. I mean, here you have someone who in most people's eyes is a criminal, and yet he runs for the Senate with the expectation that he will win. I understand he was shocked when he lost. It's like Henry Kissinger being unable to travel to certain countries because he is considered a WAR CRIMINAL. It's this sense that the rules don't apply to them. That Dick Cheney can play fast and loose with the Constitution because it doesn't apply to the President. I wonder how he feels now that he's not pulling the strings of the presidencey. Is he so cavalier about the abuse from the Oval Office now that he doesn't have a puppet in there? Inquiring minds want to know.
