I'm kind of confused - S. Hersh revelations and Bob Woodward...
Am I the only one who remembers 60 Minutes interviewing Woodward and him all ready alluding to the assassination claims? I think a lot of people are jumping to conclusions that Hersh is indicating Cheney has assassination squads working in the continental US and are most likely missing that he's probably talking about this going on in Iraq or elsewhere over seas.

1. Hersh actually said it...
"Congress has no oversight of it. It’s an executive assassination ring essentially, and it’s been going on and on and on. Just today in the Times there was a story that its leaders, a three star admiral named McRaven, ordered a stop to it because there were so many collateral deaths.

Under President Bush’s authority, they’ve been going into countries, not talking to the ambassador or the CIA station chief, and finding people on a list and executing them and leaving. That’s been going on, in the name of all of us."
