Possible Cheney cover-up in torture probe

Someone in the White House tried to deep-six Philip Zelikow's anti-torture memo. And his initials allegedly are Dick Cheney.

Cheney's office was reportedly the hub of the Bush administration's torture program. Neil Kinkopf, a law professor at Georgia State University, notes, "People in the White House -- Dick Cheney for example; David Addington, his legal adviser -- didn't want the existence of dissent to be known." [...]

This could even have legal implications. Federal law requires that the White House adhere to strict record-keeping standards. If a White House official tried to disappear an inconvenient memo, he or she might have committed a crime. Concerning the Presidential Records Act, the Bush administration never was a stickler. If millions of emails can disappear, what's one memo?

I think those prison bars frame his face nicely - - some more time (say 4 or 5 life-terms) working on the poses might lead to a modeling job...

Cheney's existence is one of the many proofs of the absence of any god - - at least a benevolent one.

Joining my "oh, plz" es to yours, a billion times over. I would have multiple spontaneous orgasms to see the little wretch in an orange jumpsuit facing a 45-year sentence, or more.
