The Bush/Cheney method of American Govt. is to instigate and quickly initiate any and all "Illegal" procedures and actions including pre emptive "oil" wars,war crimes and the shredding of the US Constitution.

The White House's next move then is to forestall and cancel out any liability to itself,for any of its murderous and egregious crimes by declaring that the President has the Executive "Right" to do these criminal things in the first place - or for the President to simply grant "Immunity" or a "Pardon" to the various persons,US Govt agencies and businesses who willingly aided and abetted him and Cheney in perpetrating their horrendous crimes.

This method is actually working fantastically well for Bush & Cheney because the US Congress and Senate has gone along with and approved of this Presidential "Immunity" every step of the way!
