Cheney has already irritated me and I want him to pay.

Obama can chose. Pursue Cheney and spend the next 3 years having that
be the focus of his administration or do the other things he wants to
do.

I am old enough to remember a few of these witch hunts and I can say,
nothing else happened when they were going on.
With Nixon, the war dragged on 3 years longer than it needed to
With Clinton, the corporations and the bankers set up the apparatus to
loot the country.


Bush institutionalized the looting. Clinton didn't help the situation, but
he had limited control when the Rep. took over Congress. Reagan started
it.

You can demonize Bush all you want, I won't stop you but you have to
know the enabling legislation was passed while we were all wondering
about blue dresses, cigars and little white lies. Now that you brought
it up, some of the other legislation that set the stage for this
looting happened while we were worried about what Oliver North was up
to.

There is nothing like a good scandal to divert our attention from what
is really important and to stop any real business going on that
benefits the country.

If Obama gets bogged down in some Cheney investigation, that will be
the only thing he will be doing.


Certainly true... I don't think Obama will get bogged down if the AG decides
to proceed. We need to hold everyone accountable for their acts.
