Dick Cheney must be asking himself that same question the Carter Family sang about. Personally, I won't miss him a bit.
Former prosecutor Jane Hamsher at the FireDogLake blog caught something my excited layperson's eyes missed (Perjury, Bitches, Perjury! 10/24/05):
Cheney was interviewed by Fitzgerald last year under oath. That would make it perjury to tell a lie. Although Republican logic tells us that perjury is only a crime if you're getting a blow job in the bargain, a legitimate US attorney might not see it that way.
What indication do we have that Cheney lied? Well, if Cheney he had told the truth when he was interviewed last year, i.e., that he was Scooter Libby's source, Fitzgerald would not have needed to threaten Judy Miller and Matt Cooper with jail in order to counter Scooter Libby's testimony that he first heard about Valerie Plame's identity from journalists.
We should soon see what Patrick Fitzgerald has waiting for the Iraq War conspirators.

I've been hoping and praying that it will be really good for our country. We could sure use some good news and hope for the future. Thanks for finding this additional bit of information.
