Having Your Cake and Eating It-or-Eat Birdshot

It is so transparent and lame. Perhaps the only time Dick Cheney been transparent in his misbegotten life. His attorneys spout his "fanciful claims" defense which reek of talking point sound bytes rather than legal argument or logic, while at the same time trying to establish presidential immunity. Wow, can we count the holes? Who needs immunity from fanciful claims? Bringing up immunity at this juncture is an action demonstrating their complete lack of confidence in being able to deny wrong-doing or culpability. Extending immunity to this kind of behavior is the only "fanciful claim" I've heard so far.

"There's no crime or culpability here!" vs. "I have immunity!" Flip flopping in a big way, ain't it? Though in this case it has more of the appearance of a barracuda's desperate gasping on a fishing pier. I'm thinking it's time for Dick to polish up the old shooting iron for his new lawyer friends.
