Although, Palmer did cover up the Ryan murder and was willing to have him killed to save other people - with no guarantee that Saunders wouldn't just follow through with his threat. But, when he was asked to give the names of more than a few people, he balked and said "no" -- so yeah you're right, the hundreds of lives would have sat really badly with him.
I love what you said there - I think you're right, they think of Bush as someone firm in his decisions but Bush does not have Palmer's morality or sense of needing to be truthful or...well, any of those things.
That's true - and when they were talking he barely seemed to care what they were saying most of the time.
Oh, I love the way you put that - I agree, being answerable only to himself has put him back in touch with the man he used to be in some ways, although a more paranoid and twitchy version. Yeah, in s3 it seemed he was going down a very very dark path to where he'd be the enemy and turn on everyone, but he has too much - yeah "creature of right" sounds just about right. Even when his family was in danger he still tried to protect Palmer. Very well put.
