Republican Party superstar Dick Cheney, while acting as Vice President, actually wanted President Bush to order troops to arrest terror suspects in 2002 in Buffalo, NY. This is a clear violation of the constitution, although Cheney and his attorney David Addington argued that the President could ignore the constitution using his war powers authority.

Remarkably, Bush showed sounder judgment at the time and nixed the idea. In the end, the FBI had no problem effecting the arrest.

Yet another strange tale from the Bush administration.
