Does the verdict in the Libby trial leave Cheney vulnerable? God I hope so!

With the jury's verdict Tuesday — finding Libby guilty on four counts, including perjury and obstruction of justice, and not guilty on one count of making false statements to the FBI — Cheney's critics, and even some of his supporters, said the vice president had been diminished.

"The trial has been death by 1,000 cuts for Cheney," said Scott Reed, a Republican strategist. "It's hurt him inside the administration, it's hurt him with the Congress and it's hurt his stature around the world because it has shown a lot of the inner workings of the White House. It peeled the bark right off the way they operate."

"It was clear that what Scooter was doing in the Wilson case was at Dick's behest," said Kenneth Adelman, a former Reagan administration official who has been close to both men but has broken with Cheney over the Iraq war. "That was clear. It was clear from Dick's notes on the Op-Ed piece that he wanted to go get Wilson. And Scooter's not that type. He's not a vindictive person."

There is literally nothing that I want as much as to see this administration taken down legally.

Now you may think that I am petty or mean spirited but you would be incorrect. I hate hypocrisy and lying with a white hot hate, and these bastards are some of the worst purveyors of that type of behavior that I have ever seen.

Their are dead men and women who did not have to die. There are grieving families who did not have to grieve. There are people who have been attacked by this administration who did not deserve to be treated with anything but respect. These people are the reason that we have laws in this country. They are criminals and they need to be prosecuted.
