Prosecution of Cheney just around the corner

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder will be indicting former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney for war crimes before the end of March, a source inside the White House tells micah holmquist’s irregular thoughts and links.

“[U.S. President] Barack Obama and friends had forgotten about prosecuting Cheney,” the source says. “I mean, it isn’t as if he has been in the news or anything.” A column published today on the website of The Progressive magazine where Matthew Rothschild called for a prosecution caused the change. “Obama saw that,” the source says, “and just knew that there had to be prosecution.

Another source insider the White House, who, like the first, wishes to remain anonymous, could not confirm this sequence of events but did say that Obama did all of a sudden start saying, “there must be accountability. What faith can the people of this great nation have in our system of criminal justice if it is clear that the most powerful citizens are not subject to it?”

yeah, that sounds like something that King President Obama would say.
