1. There is only one thing to say

Dirty bastards. The guy had his kid and cheney and co. proved that they are the terrorists. I hope this guy wins a pile of money and a pile of respect.

2. If the charges were dismissed,

He has every right to sue.

I wonder if cheney even know what happened. If he did, the guy would be going to the gas chamber

The Secret Service agent told my wife, myself and anyone else that would listen that I was being charged with assaulting the Vice President. Those charges were later reduced to harassment. And two weeks later or three weeks later, the charges were dismissed altogether.

6. the thing about this is....Mike Allen, Bush apologist extraordinaire,

was on Washington Journal the other day, talking about this, and was very careful to make it sound as if this guy created a scene, made it sound very much like he was stopped, and arrested ON THE SPOT, because he'd created a clear danger to the VP, and said that ANYBODY who approaches somebody as exalted as that should EXPECT to be arrested!

he really said that crap, and it turns out NOT to be true

what a surprise

just as the doctor in NO who told Cheney to go FFFF himself, and was arrested some time later, the SS had no trouble with the initial encounter, obviously realizing that NO THREAT AT ALL existed at the time

wouldn't you love to know why they decided to arrest him after the fact, and what machinations went on before they made the decision?

Mike Allen can go FFFFF himself, the lying little weaselworm

7. You know we need to approach these incidents differently

These people need to find lawyers who will represent them and take the angle that Cheney invaded their space and their neighborhoods....it is their right to speak out in their neighborhoods....

Cheney and his ilk think they can invade and interupt peoples lives whenever they please...

8. Land of the free indeed!

9. Elmer Fudd can't handle the truth.

Leahy should have had Cheney arrested for assaulting him on the Senate floor.

11. They charged him for assaulting Dick "Go fuck yourself" Cheney

He admits he might have brushed against his arm but NOTHING remotely close to assualt anyway I'm glad the charges were dropped and I hope he's sucessful with his suit.
