Listeining to Shuster on Hardball...is Cheney being set up to

[NRaleighLiberal]

take the fall? Another well orchestrated situation where big Dick steps down, thus the unfortunate misfit son comes out smelling clean and setting up for the Pugs to keep things in the 06 election? Are we seeing the dirty, soiled hand of Rover?

1. Bush will want to replace cheney before he looses the congress

and faces a tougher confirmation hearing.

[Demeter]

5. That Would Be Smart and Organized, But

Kkkarl is rather busy at the moment, and can't take his calls....leave a message, and he'll try to get back to running the White House later. BEEP!

2. Dick might step down

but his hand is still gonna be pulling Dubya's strings

[Demeter]

3. He Set Himself Up

Cheney deserves everything that's coming to him, and more. But even if he gets the ultimate penalty, it will not save Dumbya's ass.

4. I don't know but where is Fitz?

I thought there was going to be a filing or something today. That lying sack of crap Roverat needs to be frogmarched outta there ASAP ...

[Mz Pip]

6. Cheney won't step down

I don't believe for a minute he will every do anything that could be interpreted as being an admission of guilt. No way. Never.

They are never wrong.
They never make mistakes.
Ever.

Why would someone who believes that history will judge them as being the greatest administration ever resign?

7. Cheney stepping down *because of a scandal* can only hurt...

...the monkey king. On the other hand, if he keels over while slaughtering 10 year old girls in the "feeding room" it will set off weeks of cable propaganda outlet adulation for Cheney the "great American," some of which will inevitably rub off on Bush.

8. I don't care who takes it between Dick & Bush as long as someone does.

Pun intended.

[Atman]

9. Bush couldn't set up a checkers board

No. If anyone is doing the setting up, it's Cheney himself. Bush is a rube and an idiot.

15. Thank you.

Lest anyone forget DUH-bya has the brain power of a gnat, a little reminder is in order from time to time.

10. Dick Cheney is SEEMINGLY the most arrogant man alive ...

If he ever were to resign it would have been after he shot his friend in the face.

Nope, * will go before Darth Cheney - he's part of the CNS to the American-RW-Borg-Bots! :P

[yorgatron]

12. if they wanted to get rid of Cheney,all they'd have to do is

start serving him double bacon-cheeseburgers everyday :evilgrin:

[cynatnite]

11. Very possible

I thought about that this morning.

Powell blamed Cheney for the aluminum tubes statements. Said that whole deal was Cheney. Libby directly names Cheney. With his 'in the toilet' poll numbers, shooting an old guy in the face and having to drag a crashcart with him wherever he goes, I wouldn't be surprised if we have a resigning VP.

Makes one wonder who they would bring in as VP...surely it would be a setup for a 2008 bid.

[eleny]

13. But who will take it in the neck for his next f-up?

He leaves burned ground wherever he walks? Will Condie take it the next one? I don't think so. He's running out of get out of jail cards.

[speedoo]

14. Speaking of Cheney.... where's Lynn?

That loudmouth is usually doing something to make the news. I have not seen anything of her in months.

Coincidence?

edit - spelling

[Catherine Vincent]

16. I'm waiting on her to say something about Fitz. If she does,

she's goanna catch a lot of hell from me. :-)

17. All I got from that piece was

W=Pinocchio and Dick=Gepetto
