If she says Repubs are looking for a way to ease Dick out and replace him you can bet there’s some fire behind that smoke.<BR/><BR/>She's not talking about Republican party nonentities like rightwing bloggers or voters in her article. She's talking about big money donors (see that article the other day about CEOs going to Hillary and Obama in droves?) and politicians who know they'll drown if they keep standing on the deck of Captain Cheney's USS Iraq yelling the ship isn't sinking.<BR/><BR/>With McConnell and Lugar making noises about pulling the plug on Dick’s favorite war he may not want to be around for the final act. OTH Cheney is a warrior and he’ll most likely fight til the last<BR/>breath of the Republican party.<BR/><BR/>And why wouldn’t Ol’ Fred wanna be Veep for a year and a half? It’s the closest he’s ever gonna get to the White House. And who knows, without Cheney to serve as the fire to Bush’s frying pan impeachment just might go forward and Ol’ Fred might even become president for a month or two.<BR/><BR/>BTW where do I send my check for the Cheney Memorial? As a Dem I want him remembered for centuries to come.markg8https://www.blogger.com/profile/07838197755962340073noreply@blogger.com
