    Cornered jackel

    What we're dealing with here is a cornered jackel in the person of Dick Cheney. If Obama talks too much about 'justice', Cheney might just nuke Iran. Obama has to be very careful what he says and does prior to taking the oath. Once he is in, then hopefully the investigations will begin. I'm just saying that Cheney is capable of ANYTHING. Taking out a major American city? Sure. Nuking Iran? You bet. Obama cannot be too careful in this tense period.
