The cases against Cheney, and even Bush, seem fairly strong.

Well, since YOU know the facts of these "cases," although there is nothing close to that in this press release, why don't YOU tell us all what the "cases" are........especially the one about Bush, as I haven't heard about that one yet. Klayman filing that one tomorrow?

During GW,Sr.'s administration, GW, Jr. was on the Board of Directors of an oil company the name of which escapes me but is easily found. Just do a search at the Wall Street Journal's website. In any event, while on the Board, GW made an inside trade that netted him a huge amount of money and within the next few months the company went bankrupt, a la Enron and GW's friend Kenny. But it just so happens that the SEC administrator was a GW,Sr. appointee, so there was no investigation. In fact, there was no investigation despite the fact that GW did not file the appropriate documents to reveal to the public at large, and the stockholders that he had made an insider play. As you may know, insider trading is one of the primary factors an investor looks at when deciding whether to invest in a stock. If owners and board members are jumping ship, most investors will not buy. First, GW explained that this was a problem with the accountants. When that didn't wash, he said it was a problem with the lawyers. When that didn't work, just a few days ago, he stated he still hasn't figured out why he only managed to file the appropriate documents seven months after his trade, well after the company was in Chapter 11.

You can take your own time to get the specifics, but that is the gist of what happened, and he has not denied it. He merely claims it's old news, like his partying which he refuses to answer questions on, at least regarding cocaine and marijuana.
