He said it wasn't illegal because he certaintly wasn't impeached! That's a horrible, horrible argument for Presidential power. I'm not saying that what Lincoln did was not necessary at the time, but arguing that something is not illegal because it does not get a President impeached is a r****ded legal argument.

Nixon, in the Frost interviews:

When the president does it that means that it is not illegal.

Cheney's a psychopath who makes Cardinal Richelieu's machinations look like those of a third-grader. (Of course, Cheney had merely to manipulate a third-grade mind.)
