Tricky Dicky . . .

BLOOMBERG has an interesting report, "Nigeria Files Charges Against Dick Cheney, Halliburton Over Bribery Case". I wonder what will happen . . .

Be careful with that picture Ed! It was a little much to click on TGB and see that first thing in the morning!

If the recent past is prologue Obama will shelter him.

Nigeria's actions are an amazing example of asymmetrical info/legal warfare. They've asked Interpol to issue a warrant for Cheney. Now Interpol has a problem... the case against Cheney is definitely much stronger than the case against Assange... will they act with the ame alacrity? Two, if Interpol does, will the US act on the warrant, or will hypocrisy rule the day?

As they used to say on the barricades... "the whole world is watching!"

I'm tingling with anticipation. Cheney in a Nigerian jail - what a Christmas present that would be!

That would be terrible! How would I know it is just a scam when I get the email?
Dear Fried,
I am imprisoned in Nigeria and I need your help to move TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS in oil revenue out of the country. Please be assured that you will receive your 35% of this Money after it is safely moved. To secure this once in a lifetime windfall, please forward your banking information by return email
