Magnificient Arrogance

Everybody knows that Dick Cheney is an arrogant prick. Some may admire that arrogance, attributing it to the "courage of his convictions" or other such BS, but I presume those are people that, for the most part, agree with Cheney's actions. I just see an arrogant motherfucker, solely focused on his own agenda and damn the Constitution or consequences.

But seriously, this truly may be the height of arrogance:
Cheney Power Grab: Says White House Rules Don't Apply to Him—Justin Rood; ABC News
I love the comments in Rood's blog (linked from the above article). As at least one of those posts mention, if he's not part of the freaking Executive Branch, then what part of the government does he think he's working for? (And how does he explain the President extending his Executive Privilege to include the VP back at the beginning of his term in office, if he's not part of the Exec? Not that that would explain how the VP qualifies for executive privilege in the first place.)

Come on now, don't you just wish (nay, hope) there's something in all those secrets he doesn't want to report on that's going to get that bastard grilled and locked away for a very long time? Wishful thinking, I know. But still…

Yeah, it's hard to argue that one. There were articles on Cheney's comments as well as Bush's "clarification" in the LA times on Friday and Saturday, so it's fairly accurate (albeit the details in the blog could be sensationalized.)
