1. Just in time for a pardon!

Oh, hell, no! GO get 'em. What kind of penalty are they up against?

[Lost-in-FL]

3. I don't think * can pardon Cheney.

Can he?

[BlooInBloo]

6. I think the power of pardon is absolute and unchecked.

8. Not if it's a state grand jury doing the charging.

[Lint Head]

10. The timing is perfect. Bush will be out of office and it would be

Obama that would have to do the pardoning. It takes time to schedule a trial. The President can't pardon someone that has not been convicted of a crime. Indictment is not conviction. The crime is what is pardoned. :dem:

11. Unfortunately not true

One of many points of evidence was Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon, who was never convicted of anything, or even tried for anything.

2. Everyone! Now's the chance! Swarm! Swarm!

4. too bad they got him on the not so important issues like

investments.. what about the criminial war in iraq? what about the firing of legal attorneys'? what about a dozen other lists of criminalities cheney has been involved on the past eight years? He is being indicted on a white collar criminial crime..how about the crime against humanity?

5. "He's named" because he owns Vanguard holdings?

This is going no where.


Wow, all the shit on Darth Vader and we get this bullshit?

7. I just read the Houston Chronicle story on this.

Look for this to be dismissed.

9. I will believe it when I see it
