The Office of Vice President Dick Cheney proposed to abolish the Information Security Oversight Office (ISOO), the executive branch organization that oversees the national security classification system, after its Director insisted that the Vice President comply with reporting requirements that apply to all executive branch entities.

Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA), the chairman of the House Oversight Committee who revealed the move today, said in a letter to the Vice President (pdf) that it "could be construed as retaliation" against ISOO.

5. That's understandable really.

The Constitution, Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights can make it terribly uncomfortable for the BushCo Regime some times. Deadeye Dick would like to burn em all.
