Can Cheney be made "A Man Without a Country" ?

If he is impeached before and separately from Dubya, he will be pardoned for any and all crimes he may have committed while Vice-President.

Is there any way he could be stripped of his citizenship and cast off into the world so seek asylum (how ironic and appropriate) somewhere else. Maybe Qatar with his Halliburton cronies.

and they'll live happily ever after in a country which has no reciprocating extradition treaty with the US. bush will fly out an hour after the next inauguration.

I don't think so. But, were Cheney to be convicted of, or even just indicted for, his crimes by a regular court, Bush could pardon him. Maybe criminal indictments of Bush and all of his thugs needs to wait until Bush leaves office. Impeach. Remove. Prosecute.

The 14th Amendment states in part, " All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." Because he was born in the US, any effort to strip him of citizenship would be a direct violation of the 14th Amendment.

that allows the President to revoke anyone's citizenship. Blatantly unconstitutional, of course, but since when has that ever stopped Bush?

I doubt even the current Supreme Court would uphold such a move.

ALWAYS have a country. Wherever the oil is, that's where he pledges allegiance.

This has been the goal all along of the Bush Administration, which the help of SC Justice Anton Scalia, head of the DC Chapter on Federalism has brought us to this reality. We are again being victimized by a Federalist Takeover of the US Constitution due to Bush's unsupervised signings re: (editing) of The Constitution..

Hi Calimary..glad you're taking the Cheney by the Horns...here's some info you may want to impart on your readers, as an aid to clarification of where we stand in the inherent protection The Constitution used to afford us.

This information became the genesis for Joe Conason's new book, "It Can Happen Here.."

Dick is such a liability that a number of people in the GOP want him out of the VP slot. Some of them want to get Fred Thompson in the VP slot to give him a boost in 2008.

Right now, I think it's better for him to stay, because his presence will continue to cast the Republicans in an unfavorable light. He's an very big inconvenient truth for the GOP.
