David Letterman’s show said, concisely, that Cheney is one big tub of evil. It is almost impossible for one to come up with an individual in the history of this country, whom has lied so shamelessly and continuously as Dick Cheney. If Cheney does not end up in Hell, then Hell is a very empty place. Cheney, the war profiteer, the proponent of torture, the enemy of civil rights, the manipulator, the worshipper of Mammon and Mars, the enemy of mankind is unbowed. He is said to be writing a memoir to advance his agenda. Will the Justice Department read it? He has incriminated himself already, and the law, and the press, and the nation are uninterested.
Karl Rove, the architect of georgebushjr’s régime, thoroughly politicised the ‘Justice Department’. Congressman John Conyers has released papers, in the thousands, proving Rove’s machinations. Rove has the same spirit of remorseless mendacity as Cheney. He has refused subpœnas. He has laughed off accountability.
It has been announced that Tom Delay will be a ‘contestant’ on a television dance programme. He has skipped away from several prosecutions, why not waltz and jig to the music in primetime. James Trafficant, former congressman from Youngstown, O., is to be released after eight years in prison over a few thousand dollars of tax fraud. Are not the vivid, scarlet crimes of the Republican hegemony far greater transgressions against the nation, and world, than petty corruption?
