Two branches of government against one.
Bush loses his hocus pocus theory of executive privilege, a theory originally cooked up by Cheney to defend his boss Nixon’s criminality, no mention of “executive privilege” or “unitary executive” in the Constitution (while we’re at it no mention of “torture” or “spying on Americans” either). But Bush will surely appeal and then it goes to the Supreme Court where the partisan Republican activist flunkies will happily go on the record once and for all as anti-constitutionalists. A fitting end for the Bush Era.
