Sorry but no "Presidential Pardon" for this guy!
It would have been much diffrent if he had been a card carrying "agent of the Israeli Govt" like Scooter Libby was and is,but thats just not the case here - so this guy will be viewed (by the White House) as a heinous,treasonous criminal and not as an innocent victim" of just another Democratic smear!

Aragoncillo worked on the security detail assigned to the vice president. I guess that would define the guy who shines Dick's shoes an aide too.

what should the punishment be for killing 650,000 innocent Iraqis for no damn good reason? Who should pay for millions maimed and displaced?

I never intended to cause harm or injury to the United States, its government or its people," Aragoncillo said. "My only wish and intent was to help the poor Philippine people

Stole documents from Dick "I have a man-sized safe in my office " Cheney?

Dick "I invented my own Top Secret Stamp" Cheney?

This guy is so toast.

He's a spy, plain and simple.

This story aint done yet.

Be Well.

stealing documents? Is this Sandy Berger?

Yes Vernon, this is Sandy Berger. Oh, wait, not quite: This guy took original documents from Cheney's office, while Berger made photocopies and returned the originals. Nuance, I know, not your strong suit. Oh, and Berger's been caught, punished, and all that.

But please, even though no one here has ever, you know, dismissed what Berger did or sought to defend the guy as innocent of the thing for which he was punished, don't let that stop you from dragging out that tired horse again and again. It's all highly entertaining.

This story aint done yet.

What? Are members of the VP's security team going to sing like canary's and tell us about the 9/11 plan regarding who ordered the missles on those planes?

Not over yet. That's for sure.

I am sure Cheney leaves security papers all over his desk so aides can come in an just take them.

Set up. Just got caught.

Seems this individual was in place for 2 or more years before Dick took office, (i.e., a holdover from the previous administration (like the former CIA chief). Appears that the current administration is the one that nailed him, - but hey, just ignore this and blame the VP if it makes you smile more.

I've said this before, but I cannot count how many times I've come into a thread for the first time, only to find Vermin getting his ass handed to him, yet again.

Guess he figured that since they were going to out Valerie Plame they'd need another spy.

He just conveniently forgot to spy for the U.S. Since he's not one of the 'inner circle' of Bush/Cheney cronies he'll probably be wearing a striped suit for the forseeable future.

MSGT-

Okay.

The Philippines are our friends. Let me see, Libby tells the world about a covert sps and her name. As a result other agents are killed and imprisoned by other countries and nearly 500 other agent are comprimised each averaging nearly 20 years of service. Libby kissed off 10,000 years of service.

Not sure who was worse.

How do you replace that without drawing more attention?

Berger made photocopies and returned the originals. ..... Oh, and Berger's been caught, punished, and all that.

Nice try, but nobody knows what Berger took. He destroyed it all. But there is evidence that he stole originals that were embarassing, and destroyed them.

And he was hardly punished.

..... only to find Vermin getting his ass handed to him, yet again.

Yes, it's easy to hand me my ass, when it's based on lies. See above.

Libby tells the world about a covert sps and her name.

Oops, it was not Libby but Armitage. But when do Lefty nut jobs let facts get in the way of a good conspiracy?

Why do You continue to spew only part of the truth and not the whole shebang?? There were several leakers but the ones that got the ball rolling that Robert Novak was refering to was Armitgae and ROVE. Need to get a clue Vernon for You are lacking in them. Maybe You should buy that Clue Boardgame it might help You out.

Per existentialism, if God were not real man would have to invent him.

Personally, as a leftwinger I gotta say, if Cheney were not real, we on the left would have to invent him. His very existence explains too much of what is wrong with this country for us to live without him.

Thank you Larry for confirming that Libby was not part of the sinister inner circle. More than most of the Lefty clowns here, you recognize truth over partisan hype.

Fun to see that the Left (which generally is atheist) now sees Dick Cheney as a god. Which makes sense. Every time Cheney says or does something, all you roaches jump around!

Darth Vadar. The Angel of Darkness. Kneel down and bow in honor of his power over you!

Well, that explains why he's going to prison - unlike Libby.

Libby was part of the inner Circle that Outed Valerie Plame Don't be Intellectually Dishonest Vernon. Of course why should I expect Intellectual Honesty from the likes of You.

hmmmm.... it is convenient for vernon to assign atheism to most of the left, but my guess is that most of the left are also scared shitless of the death thing, and pay lip service to a god (though that god might not be quite as white,protestant and male as that of the right).

This atheist knows that Cheney is an evil little man who will sooner or later get his comeuppance. (Y'all remember him, the one who reminded us on a daily basis that weapon inspections were not working, and the UN was irrelevant).

The guy was a carry over from the previous administration. Found out and removed by people in this administration. Bush wants to remove eight incompetent AG and the media has a fit!

"Ex-Cheney Aide Gets 10 Years for Spying"

YEAH!


Not to worry!
It will look good on his "Fake Plastic Son of a Bitch" Resume!

It will no doubt earn him a regular spot on Fox News!

Can someone please explain how a person on a security detail and assigned (key word) to the VP can be an "aide" to anyone?? Aragoncillo was assigned (likely) by another department in the government seeing as he was there 2 years before the present VP took office. Headline is complete bullcrap and designed to stir-up a controversy where none exists!!

Smells like Ollie North in here.

Or is it Jonathon Pollard?

"...Fun to see that the Left (which generally is atheist)...Vernon"

This is too easy:

I'd rather have a party of Atheists, who know things, than a party of dribbling god-babblers who easily have the wool pulled over their eyes by their 'honest' leaders!

Tell ya what, Vermin: Let's play a game. It's called 'Fly the Plane'

We both get a Jet Liner. You sit in the cock-pit with an empty seat. I sit in a Cock-pit with a Jet Pilot.

You Pray to god to be your 'Co-Pilot' and fly the plane. You cannot touch the instruments.

I ask the pilot to fly the plane. Likewise, I cannot touch an instruments.

Let's see who makes it to London first, You and God, or Me and the Pilot. If you make it first, I'll give you $100,000 dollars and I convert to Evangelical Christian ON THE SPOT. If I make it first, you drop your prentendica religious beliefs forever, and sign up for Cotnractor Security Forces in Iraq with 'Blackwater' Okay? How's About it? We got a deal?

No? Somethin tells me (science) that this game is just out of yours and your 'god's league'

LOL.

You are nothing more than an impotent, sickened, shilling religious kool-aid drinker, with sheeple and nazi like tendancies (oh no! A Lefty Hitler Reference...).

Wake up. Your slights against atheist are so idiotic and ridiculous compared to what YOU believe in (see example above).

"...Aand the cross around yo' neck go Bling-Bling-Bling..."

Vermin you dumbass, nobody is accusing Libby of leaking, just perjury and obstruction of justice.

Fuckin' Dumbass.

Aid, my ass!!

Aragoncillo worked on the security detail assigned to the vice president from 1999 to 2002, where he held a top security clearance. He later took a job as an intelligence analyst with the FBI in New Jersey.

You SOBs never stop lying to hurt the administration. Your credibility is negavative.

Sniper,

What's wrong????

Lying???? The only lie here is this was spying.

Cheney made this happen for some reason, I am sure they leave classified documents on their desks to be taken by security detail individuals.

Leaving the classified document open on a desk is a breach in and of itself.

How stupid can you be, yet, we don't see any punishment for such a breach in classified security.

Aid, my ass!!...

Yeah, I'm sure any ol body just gets assigned to Cheney's service, HAHAHAHAHAH

Wow... I still don't buy 9/11 conspiracy theory, but the "Team B" and neocon relationship is scary. I can't wait for the Oliver Stone movie.

Paul Wolfowitz always did remind me of the "smoking man."

And where did that information come from? Have you ever worked in a secure area with clasified documents? You are clueless.

Moneywar's quite correct. You NEVER leave a classified document out. It must be in your control at all times, or locked in a classified safe. No ifs, no exceptions, no "but!" about it. If you don't know this, you betray your own experience with handling classified materials.
