Sad! The crook gets away with yet another crime, and the Skull and Bones crowd continues its infamous, secretive malfeasance. Perhaps some other country will take up the challenge. If the US will not prosecute some other more honest government might. Would that not be wonderful!!!

Shows how important it is to have friends in high (or low, depending on you pov) places!

I would have thought that waterboarding would be appropriate in this case, but inasmuch as the Bush Cabal has the chump change payoff....why not?

Why isn't the US putting Cheney in court and in jail? Don't get it. I agree, Nancy.

Does this now make Cheney a KNOWN CRIMINAL? this was a fait accompli, Rick.

This is another pitiful example of our dual system of justice. Us little people get long sentences for minor crimes and the plutocrats can get away with murder unless they screw another member of the plutocracy. Screwing another plutocrat is the only time those folks will ever see the inside of a jail.

Cheney will never say "I am not a crook!", because he takes great pleasure in flaunting the fact that he IS! The same applies to wife Lynne and her "association" with Lockheed and corrupt contracts there with OUR government.

The Wiki leaks revealed that the Obama administration interceded on behalf of Bush to fend off war crimes prosecution by the Spanish government. The Spanish, who finally succeeded in holding Pinochet accountable for his crimes, sadly presented the best chance of recovering our country's fumble. Obama's monumental blunder of not prosecuting the crimes of the Bush administration has not been rewarded by gratitude and a collective " phew " by the wing nuts. It instead emboldened them and disgraced our country as hypocritical, espousing " freedom " , "democracy " and the rule of law, while torturing and wrongly imprisoning innocent people.

Cheney is a higher-priority villain than Osama bin Laden for many people around the world.

Even the FBI doesn't want bin Laden for 9/11, but the number of innocent deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the torture victims that Cheney (and Bush) has been responsible for, makes bin Laden's terror track record pale in comparison.

Gary Webb's part in exposing government-imported drugs earned him an official suicide with three bullets in his head. Catherine Austin Fitts and some of his other friends still live to tell his story. In Catherine' story, they allegedly tried to put her in an elite-owned private prison, possibly the same one in the south where Marc Emery is now (not sure I spelled the name right, in fact, I hope I didn't). The beef industry could not put Oprah in jail because she is surely worth more than they are, but the picture of our bill of rights is not pretty these days except for guys like Cheney, for which it is irrelevant, just a piece of paper, as GSB reputedly said.

AS PER NORMAL, THERE IS NOR WILL THE EVER BE ANY ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THESE ASSHOLES

Everyone connected to the crime is going to jail, except Cheney. I wonder, is that because the Bush family doesn't want the guy that is on the heart machine willing to drop a dime as to where the money came from? After all THE BUSH FAMILY owns Haliburton. So shouldn't the OWNERS of the corporation be up on charges? Does the Bush family want Mr. & Mrs. average citizen to believe some company employee opened the vault at Haliburton and took $180 MILLION out of petty cash? It is bad enough the Republicans are able to portray the Bush family in a positive light for a minor infraction in Nigeria - but they also are able to paper over all the deaths of soldiers as a direct result of the WMD fiasco. My opinion, evil like this is what the republican party has delivered to what once was a great country. Let's demand the corporation be prosecuted, and hanged.

How about ALL of us refuse to pay tax. That is sure fire way to bring these crooks down.

Bush Sr. and James Baker should be charged with aiding and abetting Cheney in his nefarious deeds. Is there NO level to which they will NOT sink? WHEN, in the Bush/ Cheney World, does anyone EVER pay their OWN bill? Infamy! Disgrace! Egregious Behavior by officials in HIGH Public Office. THIS is what the Bush/Cheney Regime has brought to our Nation.

Now can you see the evil in his face? No question he is an evil man.

We moan, wail, and weep about things like this, then feel that somehow we are protesting sufficiently. We're not.

Next futile step: Saying oooh, I'll never vote for another Republican and switch to the Dems. Fact is both parties are colluding in the fascist oligarchy that actually controls our destiny.

So far there is no third party that will challenge the status quo, and as an electorate we are too afraid to support an independent. This attitude plays right into the desires of the entrenched politicians of both sides. Get it?

A third party candidate such as Nader, Feingold, Sanders might at the very least throw a wrench into the system and show that we are wise to and fed up with business as usual.

But no, the next election will divert us enough to quell our serious discontent under the false pretense that there is actually a difference between the candidates. Both parties are in thrall to Big Money---Wall St, Big Banks, the military/industrial complex, Corporations, the Zionists. (No, I am not anti-Semitic, just opposed to those in Israel who foment war.)

Keep reading Truth-Out and also go to the site Whatreallyhappened. Welcome Assange and his Wickileaks and other whistle-blowers. Face the tragic reality.

Absolute corruption corrupts absolutely. What a severe miscarriage of justice. Disgustingly sick how t these 'officials" in high places, no matter who they are and where they are, can escape their just rewards.

Cheney is clearly in is own rat's nest.

A fate befitting Cheney would be that his black heart explodes in his chest... and he chokes slowly and agonizingly on his own blood while his life's deeds flash one by one through his pathological mind.

This $250,000 is clearly bribery.

Oops, i meant $250 million.

I guess these Republican criminals are just too powerful and rich to be dealt with appropriately. What a statement about American society that they can commit grievous crimes oversees but rest assured that their own government will be complicit in those crimes by not trying them at home.

Dick Cheney and executives working for Halliburton were being indited because they had good evidence that they were guilty of bribing government officials. George Bush and James Baker helped to make a cash settlement to have criminal charges dropped. I always thought that paying money to have criminal charges drooped constituted bribery in itself.

Nigeria,wasn't that a German colony at one tyme,Ethopia,,the disputed islands around Korea,China,Kosovo,living space to the "EAST",,,imperial control of the worlds maritime ports,,,a "continental" empire always sabotaughed in favor of the maritime,starting to notice a pattern,vacum gap "pass"isn't just for ex colonial entities,powers or holding companies anymore,the "program for a capitalist centurian,Pkno nothing Shultz,and all the rest of that peculiar Atlantcist "CABAL",impervios to any mitigating factor/ss full speed ahead,damn the torpedoes and sink the bizzMAORK all rolled into one giant monster magnet and inheiratience

Fantastic, the people accused of bribery are bribing the same government to drop the bribery charges. Now do you see how politics works.

Tim, it's not Obama's gig; it's Holder's, and the jellyfish-i-tude of his spine is well known.
