David Ignatius at the Washington Post profiles Cheney’s other Cheney, the pro-torture David Addington.

He is one of these who takes the phrase "The President shall be commander in chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the militia of the several states, when called into the actual service of the United States" to mean that James Madison and the boys meant to create a military dictatorship when they wrote the constitution.

Maybe he’s right.
