Court Sides With White House on Energy Task Force
The left has been trying to years to make the energy task force headed by Cheney into a problem for the White House. Cheney met with, get this, people in the energy industry. Gasp! The horror! How dare he get advice from anyone other than a blowhard Washington lawyer. The claim was that this was some illicit meeting and showed a conflict of interest or some such. Today the D.C. Court of Appeals said unanimously that the White House had a right to do what it did. Good for them.
Some parts of me pity the left. They are trying so hard to find a scandal in this White House but, well, there just isn't one. So far (knock on wood) they have played everything straight up.
