Frontline Cheneys Law
The documentary shows that our government is not run by public opinion, but within the confines of the constitution. When it comes to protecting our country the president and the vice president have an obligation to uphold and defend according to article two of the constitution.

Since Sept. 11, Addington and the vice president were able to secretly override congressional votes and unfavorable Justice Department rulings, leaving the president to prosecute the war on terror in the ways he saw fit, including torture tactics, warrantless wiretapping and rendition.
