Executive Privilege?

Executive privilege? Is that the same thing as dictatorship?

Exempting himself from reasonable restrictions and safeguards on a "trust me" basis simply says that he considers himself to be above the law and his actions to be beyond review.

Giving Scooter Libby his get-out-of-jail-free card and telling ex-top-aides not to testify in an ongoing congressional investigation into the forced resignations of at least eight federal prosecutors.

Authorized the National Security Agency's warrantless wiretapping on domestic phone calls and e-mails.

When it comes to the war in Iraq, the American people have spoken, the House and Senate have spoken, and the president is not listening.

"Executive privilege" isn't that what Nixon said too?
