BROWNSVILLE — Defense attorneys may have rushed to court with motions to quash indictments against Vice President Dick Cheney and others, but the prosecutor said he didn't show because he wasn't duly notified.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

It did have that stench didn't it?
I still think it's kinda funny that the DA who brought this action wasn't properly notified of the trial date.
A small conspiracy is still a conspiracy.

This is a good show, but I guess the sparseness of the region is the cause of the sparse media coverage. Or maybe it is the sparseness of free speech zones causing the problem.

quoted from the San Antonio Times (thank you) article;
'In early 2007, he heard the county's only district judge had appointed a longtime political rival to investigate him for allegedly pressuring jurors in a separate matter. He presented motions to have the sheriff, district clerk and judge removed from office. He was then arrested on theft, extortion and abuse of office charges that ended up being thrown out.
In March of 2007, he was indicted for allegedly lying to a grand jury and tampering with records. Those charges were dismissed in November. “It took 18 months,” Guerra said. “I never got a hearing. ... This judge is not being fair.”
In motions to be heard today, the lawyers chastise Guerra for presenting evidence with himself as the victim.
“So what that does mean?” Guerra said. “ I think when I got sworn in, I have to go against everybody who goes against the law.”
...Guerra shore has a lot of kahunas.....gotta admire him, for calling out these enablers of our newly-found privatized corrections system....punitive and corrupt are words that swirl all around this particular lot, intent on bringing down by political means a man simply after the truth...

Yeah.
I wonder if he's actually as whackadoodle as he appears or if that's how the puppeteers are making him out to be in order to get this thing quashed.
