Here Today... Gone To Hell!

As he is the VP, can he still be charged and/or go to jail?

I'm sure he can be charged, he's not above the law.  Will he be charged?  I seriously doubt it. 

Shit yea he can go to jail. (although doubtful, I'm guessing we'll get Rove and some sort of Oliver North type.)

He has been caught changing his story already. I wonder if he was under oath when he did?

 If only he had gotten a blow job, he'd be in real trouble.

Lets round these crooks, thugs and liars up!

I believe Cheney would have to be brought up for impeachment and removed from office before he could be charged with a crime.  Ditto on any other major cabinet member such as Bush, Rice, or any other cabinet member (as in Secretaries of departments, not Chiefs of staff or positions such as that).  I'm no expert on this, but I think this is how it works.

Looks like we will know something tomorrow.........

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - With the fate of at least two top White House advisers hanging in the balance, special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald appeared set to announce his decision on Friday on criminal charges over the outing of covert
CIA operative Valerie Plame, lawyers said.

Expected indictments in the case could trigger an immediate shake-up at the White House, already on the defensive over plummeting poll figures, soaring gas prices, opposition to the Iraq war and the withdrawal of President George W. Bush's nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court, Harriet Miers.

Fitzgerald has zeroed in on Lewis Libby, chief of staff for Vice President Dick Cheney, and Karl Rove, Bush's top political adviser. Other current and former administration officials may also face charges.

White House officials were anxiously awaiting the outcome since any indicted officials were expected to resign immediately. Bush was then likely to make a public statement.

Fitzgerald's spokesman, Randall Samborn, said no announcements were expected on Thursday, leaving any legal action for Friday, when the grand jury hearing the case is scheduled to meet for the last time. Fitzgerald appeared unlikely to seek an extension.

Fitzgerald spent the day huddled in Washington with his deputies as he made final preparations to wrap up the two-year leak investigation.

On Wednesday, he met for three hours with the grand jury, and spent 45 minutes behind closed doors with the chief U.S. district judge, Thomas Hogan.

In a last-minute flurry of interviews,
FBI agents this week canvassed Plame's neighborhood to see if anyone knew about her covert work for the spy agency before she was outed in a July 2003 newspaper column by Robert Novak.

Fitzgerald met with Rove's attorney, Robert Luskin, and prosecutors conducted an 11th-hour interview with Adam Levine, a former official in the White House press office, about his conversations with Rove.

Plame's identity was leaked to the media after her diplomat husband, Joseph Wilson, accused the administration of twisting prewar intelligence on Iraq. Wilson said it was done deliberately to erode his credibility.

The White House initially denied that Libby and Rove had anything to do with the leak, but reporters have singled them out as sources in grand jury testimony.

Fitzgerald could charge administration officials with knowingly revealing Plame's identity, as well as bring charges for easier-to-prove crimes such as making false statements, perjury, obstruction of justice and disclosing classified information, lawyers involved in the case said.

I think that Cheney and Rove will look very good in orange jump suits!  Also, what grown man, not involved on professional sports still goes by Scooter? 

Now that I think of it, I think Cheney can be indicted. Agnew was in ?73 before he resigned. 

We will know tomorrow..........er....later today.

Where are all the neocons to support their boys now?

Looks like Libby will be indicted, but Cheney and Rove will not be...though Rove will remain under investigation.

I'd rather they get Rove when they have all their ducks in order to do so. If he rushed to beat the deadline and got a crap case that would have been a waste of time.

Fitz said it was this was important to the American people, and I agree.

Great job getting Libby...I am very pleased.

Looks like the White House has some major problems right now.

Bush's second term is in ruins. Wonder what the Republican nomine will do in 2008 :crying: :hihi:

sell the party to the devil......

Hmm... G. Gordon Liddy, I. Lewis Libby...

After the 06 elections I think it may get worse for them. You will have more Dems in there who will really start some investigations of these thugs.


That was done around 2000..........
