Gonzales indicted with Cheney

Now you know the indictment of Dick Cheney is real, and wasn't issued by some kids playing grown-up court with some old powdered wigs and a hammer they found in the woods.

Bush's former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has also been named in the very real indictment against Cheney.

It turns out the indictment stems from the very real abuse of inmates at federal prisons in Texas. Sure Shot Cheney is an investor in the Vanguard Group, which owns parts of the private companies that run these prisons. The indictment accuses Cheney of a conflict of interest and "at least misdemeanor assaults" of inmates.

Gonzales is accused of abusing his Attorney General post to halt an investigation into prison abuse.

Another indictment accuses Texas State Sen. Eddie Lucio Jr. of improperly profiting from his office by accepting honoraria from prison management firms.

The right-wing intelligentsia is already blasting the indictments as part of a politically motivated witch hunt by Democrats. Except Lucio is a Democrat, geniuses. Oops, another Freeper argument is out the window.
