- JJ2K1, on 11/18/2008, -18/+282About damn time someone is attempting to do something. Even though this will probably go absolutely nowhere, I still see this as progress.
- CommonSense2k8, on 11/18/2008, -10/+143Cheney & Indicted in a headline brings me a tear of joy
- , on 11/18/2008, -8/+131A good start, but hopefully something more substantial hits both of them down the line.
- inactive, on 11/18/2008, -11/+109I would get just as much satisfaction watching that piece of ***** Gonzales go down like a roll of flaming toilet paper as I would dead eye. Come on Texas!
- sheeplescareme, on 11/18/2008, -9/+102i would love to see the dick cheney in a bright orange prison jumpsuit.
- inactive, on 11/18/2008, -10/+77This is either an answer to several billion prayers, or just another crummy glimmer of hope that will soon wither and die like everything else either directly or remotely linked to the cursed and foul bush administration.
- omgTHEPATRIOTS, on 11/18/2008, -9/+70This absolutely made my day. Just remember, Watergate started from nothing too. The fact is that this scandal with torture of prisoners and juvenile prisoners in our own jails connected with Alberto Gonzales and Dick Cheney has been documented and been bubbling under the radar for a long, long time.
Kudos to Willacy County, Texas! - monkiboi, on 11/18/2008, -7/+66Please go to http://torturingdemocracy.org
Fantastic banned PBS documentary. - cg4et, on 11/18/2008, -3/+56Can you say "Presidential Pardon?" Should have impeached while we had the chance.
- charm803, on 11/19/2008, -4/+55Did Cheney already get to the internets??!?? Good thing there is another article on the matter:

- JoeRandom, on 11/19/2008, -1/+38Like a bus?
- cg4et, on 11/18/2008, -7/+44Couldn't have happened to a more perfect *****.
- AshamedAmerican, on 11/18/2008, -5/+35Dick Cheney says..... "No."
- inactive, on 11/19/2008, -4/+34think positive and stay active, the criminals in office must be held accountable.
- phpld, on 11/19/2008, -1/+30He'll get help with that in prison.
- IneedaSN, on 11/18/2008, -5/+32will they show up????? HAH
- mrsteveman1, on 11/19/2008, -2/+26Presidents shouldn't be able to pardon their own administrative officials.
- Evilblobs, on 11/19/2008, -2/+25Oh look, it's Texas, not Massachusetts or San Fransisco..
must be a typo right? - AlienMushroom, on 11/19/2008, -2/+24Good, someone's gonna dick Cheney.
- ConcernedCanuck, on 11/19/2008, -2/+21has anyone told you that you have odd fantasies ;)
- sheeplescareme, on 11/19/2008, -1/+19only about you, princess.
- Kajico, on 11/19/2008, -2/+19Jesus christ, you people don't know the Rio Grande Valley, this is lawsuit/indictment metropolis down here. This is a sensationalist indictment, Juan Guerra lost his bid for DA and before he leaves he's trying to make a mark by indicting Dick Cheney. Do a search for Juan Angel Guerra Willacy Co. Texas DA and you'll see his long ***** history.
- Sup3rSh3ep, on 11/18/2008, -7/+23its only taken 8 years to finally hold these people responsible for what they've been doing.
- card51short, on 11/19/2008, -8/+24Herkimer are you saying the DA is part of the conspiracy to discredit the government and welcome in the JIHAD?
- phpld, on 11/19/2008, -4/+18It would be better to indict him after Bush is out of office, making a pardon more difficult. This could actually produce the opposite of the intended result.
- apollyon, on 11/19/2008, -1/+15because, unlike Britney spears, these greedy cowards have used their power and influence to kill, destroy, and physically harm the lives of hundreds and thousands of others, all of them without due process of law which has existed for centuries.
Britney is just annoying. (I assume that was your intended meme reference, correct?) - kemp34, on 11/18/2008, -9/+22Do you work for Dick Cheney? Better still, are YOU Dick Cheney?
LMAO man, do you want to see these folks get off scott free? - inactive, on 11/19/2008, -1/+13Did hell freeze?
- Sup3rSh3ep, on 11/18/2008, -1/+13like a more evil george bluth sr.
- Gemfinder, on 11/19/2008, -1/+13Watergate looked like moth wings next to the least of Cheney's and Gonzales's crimes.

- NinjaGod, on 11/19/2008, -1/+11You two are getting me excited.

Funny how President Bush's friends and colleagues keep getting thrown in prison by REPUBLICAN judges. Bye, bye, Ted Stevens, Jack Abramoff, Kenny-Boy Lay, et al. Although this indictment is frivolous bullsh*t, sad to say.
FTA: "Cheney's indictment on a charge of engaging in an organized criminal activity criticizes the vice president's investment in the Vanguard Group, which holds interests in the private prison companies running the federal detention centers." ...Dude, belonging to the Republican Party IS participating in an organized criminal enterprise. - Coffae, on 11/19/2008, -0/+8Dallas Morning News:
"Vice president, former AG, state senator indicted
11/18/2008
Associated Press
A South Texas grand jury has indicted Vice President Dick Cheney and former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on charges related to the alleged abuse of prisoners in Willacy County's federal detention centers.
The indictment criticizes Cheney's investment in the Vanguard Group, which holds interests in the private prison companies running the federal detention centers. It accuses Cheney of a conflict of interest and "at least misdemeanor assaults" on detainees by working through the prison companies.
Gonzales is accused of using his position while in office to stop an investigation into abuses at the federal detention centers.
Another indictment charges state Sen. Eddie Lucio Jr. with profiting from his public office by accepting honoraria from prison management companies.
The indictments were first reported by KRGV-TV. " - khail250, on 11/19/2008, -1/+8Both are inappropriate. we can not become them :(
- w1d0w, on 11/19/2008, -0/+7@Pfkninenines
Did you notice that sheeplescareme appears to be a female? - gregdigg, on 11/19/2008, -1/+8Sure it does, it's a formal accusation initiating a criminal case, presented by a grand jury and usually required for felonies and other serious crimes.
- DemiRonin, on 11/18/2008, -5/+12Cheney - No I think I'd rather not
- Spoomeister, on 11/19/2008, -0/+7It'll get overturned. Or pardoned by Bush on the way out.
- KMye, on 11/19/2008, -12/+19These comments are embarrassing. I despise both of them, Gonzales even more than Cheney, but this is frivolous ***** from a possibly insane, definitely asinine fool abusing the power of his position and wasting the taxpayers' money...
- 4321234, on 11/19/2008, -2/+9....if I know what you mean!
- maz2331, on 11/19/2008, -0/+7This is worse than doing nothing - it's an obviously flawed prosecution on its face, and it makes it a lot harder to do anything in the future without it also appearing tainted by it.
A prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich if they want to. You can bet that this DA is going to have some serious explaining to do when the feds arrest him for civil rights violations. - TheCack, on 11/19/2008, -1/+8Can't wait to see how hard they slap his wrist!
- PoizonFrog, on 11/19/2008, -1/+7I think Bush always planned to write the 1st blanket pardon for Cheney, anyway.
- inactive, on 11/19/2008, -2/+8Its about time we get the ball rolling. I think it was Texas that takes the lead in capital punishment population.
- Netik09, on 11/19/2008, -1/+7Excellent play on words!
