Nothing but a gangster party



(White House photo/David Bohrer; caption)

What's interesting about the above photo of a Dick Cheney breakfast meeting in Japan is who else is at the table: the VP's national security adviser John "Year of Iran" Hannah and David Addington, his chief of staff -- both of whom are neck-deep in the revelations from the Scooter Libby trial. Thus the entire team that helped land poor old Scooter in the dock will most likely be sitting a continent and an ocean away when the jury verdict comes in. Incidentally, the other American at the table is US Ambassador to Japan Tom Schieffer -- brother of CBS pundit Bob, and longtime baseball crony of George W. Bush.
