They have to do this to protect themselves. A while back I read an excellent paper by a high ranking Canadian military officer. He wrote that under the Geneva Convention, military officers and even Jr., himself, could be subjected to a trial before an international tribunal - something like the Nuremberg trials of high ranking Nazi officials. This is about writing a "get out of jail free" card, as it is anything else.
Just when you think it can't get any worse...
Why doesn't Jr. just abolish the entire Bill of Rights and be done with it?
