La ley de Cheney

"Cheney's Law", un documental del programa Frontline, de PBS.
For three decades Vice President Dick Cheney conducted a secretive, behind-closed-doors campaign to give the president virtually unlimited wartime power. Finally, in the aftermath of 9/11, the Justice Department and the White House made a number of controversial legal decisions. Orchestrated by Cheney and his lawyer David Addington, the department interpreted executive power in an expansive and extraordinary way, granting President George W. Bush the power to detain, interrogate, torture, wiretap and spy -- without congressional approval or judicial review.

Muy bueno el documental. Desenmascara a Cheney, verdadero Maquiavelo/Rasputín del régimen Bush II, que se dedica a dinamitar desde dentro la "separación de poderes"... Es revelador el episodio en el hospital con Ashcroft.
