For anyone who foolishly expects justice for Cheney
Sorry, but forget it. Why do you suppose he's being so brazen, hanging around DC and running his mouth? He knows no one will lay a glove on him because he's tight with those who actually control the levers of power, that he has enriched and enabled them, and they will never let anything happen to him.
The best we can hope for is a prolonged and extremely painful coronary event that ultimately kills him. Then we can line up from coast to coast to spit on his grave.

1. The only reason that he didn't get charged was that Libby was willing to risk
going to jail for him. Now that he is out of power anybody who can give him up and save themselves will do it in a New York minute.

3. He can always play the poor health card
It's an ace he'd throw down if anyone got too near to suit him.

4. Bet me. He's being so brazen because he's considering the
consequences and is trying to change history.

Do you actually think he enjoys going on talking head shows? Hell, we hardly saw him the last 4 years.

What's more, I think Cheney being out there might have been the straw that pushed this admin to get busy and serious.

And I really think his friends are few and far between, especially in this admin.

8. I'll bet he doesn't mind being fellated by Hannity
and I'm sure he doesn't have friends in this admin. and few if any left among congressional Repugs. His "friends" that matter are on Wall Street and in the multinational oil companies and armament industries that bankroll our so-called "leaders". Call me a tad cynical, but these folks probably have the wherewithal to prevent any judicial or congressional action they so choose.

5. There are plenty of cowards out there...
One of them I am sure would roll on Cheney if it was to their benefit.

9. Its not impossible that he and others
have a * signed get out of jail free card in their pockets... dated the morning of January 20, 2009. No reason for him to reveal it unless it becomes necessary.
