There are now a million and ONE reasons to impeach our Vice President.
--------------
A South Texas grand jury has indicted Vice President Dick Cheney and former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on charges related to the alleged abuse of prisoners in Willacy County's federal detention centers.
The indictment criticizes Cheney's investment in the Vanguard Group, which holds interests in the private prison companies running the federal detention centers. It accuses Cheney of a conflict of interest and "at least misdemeanor assaults" on detainees by working through the prison companies.
Gonzales is accused of using his position while in office to stop an investigation into abuses at the federal detention centers.
Another indictment charges state Sen. Eddie Lucio Jr. with profiting from his public office by accepting honoraria from prison management companies.
The indictments were first reported by KRGV-TV.

Lets get this to the news. This way, if cheney decides to ignore another indictment, the people will be aware that he's sidestepping the law more and more.

I really, really hope this actually happens instead of just the possibility of it...or before someone decides to pay someone else off to get rid of the problem entirely.
