Cheney, who, according to Jim Lobe, “lies isolated and exposed”[1] could well become a dangerous man if he is tempted to opt for the Presidency in the light of the defeat of the neoconservatives and ultra-nationalists in the mid-terms and the resignation of his man Rumsfeld from the Department of Defence.
There is, of course, only one way that Cheney could ever become President between now and the next election short of an impeachment of Bush. And it’s not as though the neoconservatives haven’t pondered the idea of a ‘President Cheney’ themselves.[2]

Are you suggesting that neocons or others will assasinate Bush so that Cheney will take over?
Is there a reason why you won't answer my question? Are you suggesting that neocons or others will assasinate Bush so that Cheney will take over? Why make a post and then not respond to the comments you receive?
Declare who you are and I may - just may - respond with a comment.
You responded to my comment on your Holocaust thread without knowing who I am. Why change your policy now?
As I said, declare who you are and I may - just may - respond with a comment. Take it or leave it.
