Coincidence Cheney's heart problems before Intel report
Edited on Tue Dec-04-07 12:17 AM by lovuian
I bet Hadley broke the news to Cheney that Intel wasn't going to support him and advised backing off Iran strike

and then Cheney's heart went irregular

Heard that During their visit to Washington last week, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni and Defense Minister Ehud Barak were briefed on the Intel report. So they knew it was coming before news papers let it out

Political sources in Israel said Monday night that it appears that the Bush administration has lost the sense of urgency and determination to carry out a military strike against Iran in 2008

2. Could be that, or...
Cheney is leaving. He's losing the Iran battle, and is paving the way for an early departure. Let chimpy name the heir to his legacy.

7. Cheney leaving
with his bag of plunder just like the rest of the Republican powerful. Time for new faces in the White House who get their turn at robbing our democracy and resources.

I believe this "change of face law" is just outrageous and corrupt.

4. Sometimes a picture is worth a 1000 words
Edited on Tue Dec-04-07 12:32 AM by lovuian


The Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad leader was invited for the first time to the OCC meeting of six Gulf Cooperation Council leaders which opened in Doha Monday, Dec. 3.

This is a pic from the OCC meeting and look who is holding hands


It use to be Saudis holding Cheney and Bush hands
but those days have gone bye bye

6. Holding hands
Isn't there a photo of Bush holding this Saudi Royal leader's hand?

I have always wondered why the Arab nations didn't invade Iraq and remove us and the British. We were there illegally.

It's not surprising to see any elite leader "playing the dog and pony show" regarding oil. Maybe it's to scare Bush as to the power he does not have.

9. Yes there is and I looked for it and just couldn't get it
but its there

The Saudis didn't feel that Bush could protect them ... I think they were getting nervous

and backed off

Its really got to do with MONEY

12. IMO
the arab monarchies were happy to see Saddam go. What they didn't count on was Rummy dismantling the entire bureaucracy (police, army, civil service) of Iraq and the chaos that ensued. It seems they now realise they better sort their own s*** out themselves because Bush-Cheney just create chaos wherever they go.

11. His biggest heart problem is that he doesn't have one.
Everything you've read regarding his heart are all lies. He runs on a mixture of leaded gasoline, $100 bills, and plutonium. If he stops lying, he'll go up like a nuclear pinata.

17. Another Day without Cheney to speak out on WMD in Iran
the axis of evil country...

He's awful quiet and news media about him is awful quiet

Its a shame the Vice Prez doesn't have a statement about the NIE report

18. Probably. Cheney withheld the report for a year.
He was trying to force the analysts to remove dissenting opinion about Iran not having a functional nuclear weapons program. The analysts stood there ground. Now the truth be told. But that doesn't change the fact that Cheney withheld the NIE for a year trying to keep the truth from being told.
