Cheney Loses His Office

   Poor VP Cheney has been booted from his office at the Capitol by Rep. Charles Rangel!

"Ways and Means Committee" is already painted on the door so I guess that VP Cheney will have to find another hangout. My, how my heart bleeds for the scum!

   I wonder if Rep. Rangel by any chance was armed with a warrant to search before tossing? Wishful thinking, I know.

Sources said Cheney's and his staff's belongings were removed over the holidays.

Rangel moved at lightning speed to boot the man he once told The Post is a "son of a bitch."   More Here

The President asserted his new authority when he signed a postal reform bill into law on Dec. 20. Bush then issued a "signing statement" that declared his right to open people's mail under emergency conditions.

That claim is contrary to existing law and contradicted the bill he had just signed, say experts who have reviewed it.

Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) said,"Despite the President's statement that he may be able to circumvent a basic privacy protection, the new postal law continues to prohibit the government from snooping into people's mail without a warrant."

   It is worth noting that Mr.Waxman co-sponsored this bill.
