Cheney and Gonzalas Indicted in Texas

Not waiting for the dust to settle on the election, a District Attorney in Willacy County, Texas has indicted Dick Cheney and Alberto Gonzalas on seperate charges related to alleged prisoner abuse in federal detention centers. CNN reports:

The indictment stems from Cheney's investment in the Vanguard Group -- an investment management company that reportedly has interests in the prison companies in charge of the detention centers, according to The Associated Press. It also charges Gonzales halted an investigation into abuse at the detention centers while he was attorney general.

That seems to me to be a conflict of interest on Cheney's part to begin with. Cheney's spokesperson indicated that he had not recieved an indictment.

Let's see what he tries to use to avoid this circus.
