Once there is a governmental hand in it, how easy is it to disentangle oneself from the mess? Did Cheney break any laws concerning his past work and possible financial interest? That was in debate for a while. So, would YOU feel comfortable if we were opponents in a legal case and someone who might benefit from my winning were judge?
Since you totally missed the point of my comment......

Republicans are quick to cry 'OBAMA' on, well, anything. GM comes through this thing with no fine? OBAMA! Please note that with Republicans facts are optional things that exist only to muddy the waters since everything that takes place in America is somehow controlled by OBAMA!

But if a Republican is President when the issue is settled and if GM receives no fine will Republicans scream that the fix was in? Nope. They would just say it was business as usual and the President had no hand in it.

Say, now that I think about it.... Has a Republican President ever done anything wrong? Not according to Republicans unless that President was Abe Lincoln and then, for reasons I have yet to understand, they seem to think he was some sort of monster for saving the country during the Civil War.
