The Wayne Madsen Report
May 10, 2007 – WMR has received a third well-placed confirmation that Vice President Dick Cheney, while CEO of Halliburton, was a client of the escort service of DC Madam, Deborah Jeane Palfrey. In addition, one of Cheney’s closest military advisers and friends was also a client of the DC Madam’s Pamela Martin & Associates escort service. Cheney used the escort service while he was a part time resident of the posh Ballantrae section of McLean, Virginia.
After intense pressure from the White House and Disney executives, ABC News killed the DC Madam client story after having been given exclusive access to Palfrey’s ten years’ of phone call records.
Cheney made an unscheduled visit to Iraq during his tour of the Middle East.
The means matter, yes, but Cheney needs to be taken out of public office completely as soon as possible. If it is a sexual scandal that leads to his resignation “for health reasons” the nation and the world will be better off. The rest of the investigations will continue and eventually he will go down in history as the sold-out, morally bankrupt, corporatist, anti-American that he is.
Ultimately I don’t care if the Democrats look bad. When the nation is returned to the simple debate between liberalism v. conservatism, each on their own actual merits, we will have come a long way back to a healthy body politic. I’m not in this to serve the best interests of the Democrats.
The means matter. Ultimately the Repubs looked bad after the Clinton fiasco.
Jodin, I agree to a point, but much like the way Mob Bosses were brought down through charges of Income Tax Evasion, I’ll take whatever we can get to bring Cheney down for now and then, once convicted, other charges can be pursued.
I dont think this should be the kind of thing we focus on. It’s akin to the Clinton/Blow Job scandle. We should rise above it.
