Perjury Libby hearing casts cloud over Cheney


That cloud is the equivalent of a political mushroom cloud!


....and it had damn well better not be ignored!

Perjury Libby hearing casts cloud over Cheney - Financial Times - MSNBC.com:

As a Washington jury starts its deliberations on Thursday on whether Lewis 'Scooter' Libby, the former chief of staff of Dick Cheney, the US vice-president, is guilty of perjury and obstruction of justice, he is not the only one whose reputation has come under suspicion.

'There is a cloud over the vice-president,' Patrick Fitz­gerald, special prosecutor, told the jury on Tuesday. 'He sent Libby off to the meeting with Judy [Judith Miller, a New York Times reporter] where Plame was discussed. That cloud is something that we just can't pretend isn't there.'
