tricky dick
one wonders if bush/cheney are going to pull a nixon in two years. president bush pardons vice president cheney for any and all crimes he may have committed while in office. bush resigns. cheney becomes president. then cheney pardons bush for any and all crimes he may have committed while in office. i'm not an expert on the constitution by any means. but i think that holds. some folks wanted to hang nixon more than i want to hang bush. and he died of old age. that's assuming we wanted to abide by the constitution. we could just ignore it and hang em anyway. claim the precedent that these presidents didn't uphold the constitution while they were in office. so why should they be able to insist we uphold it when they're out? interestingly though, the constitution is not the highest law of the land. international law is. so conceivably they could be hanged by an international court. probability: zero.
