1. Still dangerous.
Either this is a planned whitewash designed to make W look good (notice how W is the "voice of reason" in all these stories) or Cheney is the closest thing we have in this country to a coup leader.
Either way, he remains a dangerous figure for our freedom.

2. He isn't "closest to" a coup leader; HE WAS AND REMAINS ONE.

3. As I watched excerpts from the interview on Washington Journal this morning
it was clear, the man is afraid - very afraid.

He knows he is going to be prosecuted. I'd be willing to bet he knows of things that will be found by the investigations that have yet to be exposed. It is why he is adamant about stopping the investigation(s).

4. Cheney has done more to damage our world than anyone in my lifetime.....
..... for the sake of humanity and America's reputation, this man needs to go to jail.

6. Nothing is more dangerous than a morally certain patriot
who thinks the law was written for other times and other people.

Every true monster the modern world has produced has been this variety.
