The very suggestion of reining in Cheney makes Bush laugh
Edited on Sun Feb-11-07 09:59 AM by Rose Siding
TPM excerpts a UPI article-

At a farewell reception at Blair House for the retiring chief of protocol, Don Ensenat, who was President Bush's Yale roommate, the president shook hands with Washington Life Magazine's Soroush Shehabi. "I'm the grandson of one of the late Shah's ministers," said Soroush, "and I simply want to say one U.S. bomb on Iran and the regime we all despise will remain in power for another 20 or 30 years and 70 million Iranians will become radicalized."

"I know," President Bush answered.

"But does Vice President Cheney know?" asked Soroush.

President Bush chuckled and walked away.

2. He looks like a fucking goon in that picture.
Which is oddly appropriate.

What a fucking asshole. Have some decency and answer the question.

4. He's as much a "cowboy" as Dick Cheney is an honorable man.

6. I was hoping someone would show what he was wearing that night.
How can anyone take him seriously about anything when he is trying to wear a white hat?
