Matthews Demands: How Do We Prosecute Bush and Cheney?

~



"We did it, baby, we beat the system and got away with it. We're above the law!"

An overly eager Chris Matthews, on Wednesday night's "Hardball," actually raised the prospect of prosecuting George W. Bush and Dick Cheney over the CIA interrogation memos as he pressed Democratic Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz: "But how do we do it? Under what law do we go after them?"

To which even the liberal Schultz initially balked, as she tried to rein in Matthews: "Well I think we need not to get ahead of ourselves Chris."

However Schultz, after Matthews' continued to push, relented and gave the MSNBC host a response more to his liking as she warned:

"There is no one that is above the law in the United States of America."
