The Winds Are Changing

Cheney to Congress: Buzz off.
 
Congress to Cheney: Not so fast

WASHINGTON -- This week the Bush administration was finally forced out of its own pre-9/11 worldview -- and yes you read that right. It happened because some brave Republicans stared the president down and said: Stop.

Of course, it is the administration that is always accusing its opponents of pre-9/11 thinking. But for the last five years, President Bush, Vice President Cheney and Karl Rove have been willing to put the national unity required to fight terrorism in second place behind their goals of aggrandizing presidential power and winning elections. Can you get more pre-9/11 than that?
