Ch...I had the great good fortune to refuse shaking <br />Cheney's mitt back in '76 as he and his entourage<br />swept through Rock Springs late that summer.<br /> Surrounded by all the usual suspects: Union<br />Pacific R/R, wire-line energy company bigshots<br />most especially Haliburton, and the largest throng<br />of thugs I'd ever seen since JFK arrived in Miami to<br />meet Nixon at Key Biscayne (1960).<br /> Point is that even back then the VP was deep in the sack with PP&G, Interior/BLM, R/R, not to mention the outfit that run's the inter-mountain<br />wests' semi-legitimate interests outside of Vegas<br />but including most local government in Wyoming.<br /> Cheney's pal Mayor Paul Watawa indited the next year (tax evasion, complicity in murder regarding<br />undercover State's Attorney General Office) & later<br />FBI, were covered up, although portrayed on 60<br />minutes at the time as a Butch Cassidy shoot em up.<br /> Want to get the goods on the man from Casper?<br />Half of Wyoming is eager to help. From Vegas to<br />Rock Springs, 700 miles give or take, one in the brain and a shallow grave is the prefered dispatch.<br />Official help?

Bush friends left in the White House? The only one left IS Dick Cheney, right? Because at this point you can't count Rove or the neo-cons or Rummy or any of the women: Condi, Hughes or Miers because each has left Bush or been discredited. Have I missed anyone?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8674902.post-26949634678385555182006-11-11T12:29:00.000-05:002006-11-11T12:29:00.000-05:00The people taking charge of the situation seem to ...The people taking charge of the situation seem to be Legitimate President Bush and friends, so their goal will be to protect Squatter Bush--not for his sake but for the sake of the name 'Bush'.<br /><br />As for the squatter, I think the situation has changed in the following way (among others): If Bush issued a pre-emptive pardon to Libby, then Libby could, I imagine, be compelled to testify to Congress, and Congress would be Democratic. Libby would have no 5th amendment excuse. So now it is better for Bush, in my opinion, to let Libby and Cheney fend for themselves, and to try to avoid impeachment.Barry Schwartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12817873613927688419noreply@blogger.com
