Sen. Dorgan: Cheney's "no-brainer" illustrates the issue with Military Comm Act

But North Dakota Democrat Byron Dorgan said Mr Cheney's remarks showed that the legislation that was eventually approved was too vague.

"I think Vice President Cheney's remarks make it clear that what was passed by Congress is sufficiently non-specific to allow the administration to interpret it however they wish," he told reporters.

3. Bush won't adhere to a law regardless of how specific it is
He proved that long before the MCA of 2006.
