While President Bush “…asserted executive privilege Thursday and rejected lawmakers’ demands for documents that could shed light on the firings of federal prosecutors…” at the same time Vice-President Cheney is apparently “backing away from the claim” that his office isn’t part of the Executive Branch and is in essence a “fourth branch of government” even though the VP has claimed use of Executive privilege in the past.
Not even a good fiction writer could come up with stuff like this…
