I blame the Dems for Cheney all the way. They should have impeacheed th4e
neocon son of a bitch and they didn't.

Maybe he's doggystyling Pelosi.

Law enforcement officials familiar with the investigation said that in
previous interviews, Stanley repeatedly said that then-CEO Cheney had
no knowledge of the bribes. At the time, however, Stanley was not a
cooperating witness, a stance that changed in June when he was
confronted with evidence of his involvement in the bribery scheme.

The vice president's office declined to comment, citing the continuing
litigation.

It appears these bribes were on a large scale. It's hard to imagine
that the upper-echelons weren't aware of hundreds of millions floating
around.

That's a tough one. Bribery's illegal but until everyone gets on the
same page about enforcing the laws it can be considered a cost of
business.
