Cheney Ordered Not To Destroy His VP Records

It shows how bad to the bone the Republicans are.
A federal judge on Saturday ordered Dick Cheney to preserve a wide range of the records from his time as vice president.
Cheney will probably pull out his Unitary Executive Theory handbook and have David Addington or John Yoo help him destroy all his papers and emails. Maybe Scooter Libby will help out, too.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly is a setback for the Bush administration in its effort to promote a narrow definition of materials that must be safeguarded under by the Presidential Records Act.
It's considered a "setback". To not destroy the VP files and papers is a setback? Is that not a perfect representation of Republicans destroying laws set up to protect America.

End result: Cheney will blow this ruling off and destroy everything. Comply with lawful demands? Cheney? It's beneath him.
