Exercising Investigative Powers Could Spell the End for Cheney and Bush

Cronyism has been around as long as government, but the Cheney-Bush Administration took this ancient practice well beyond the ranks of anticipated Washington practice. By the time that everything was narrowed down and the neocon element along with special interest candidates had been chosen there was no room for anyone else.
It was Dick Cheney who, prior to the voter uprising against the Republicans last Tuesday, stated emphatically that his team will continue governing the same way regardless of what happened. This was synonymous with his comment after the 2000 election decided by a one-vote Supreme Court majority after Bush lost to Al Gore in the popular vote category
