Cheney : the Smoking Gun!
Cheney is PNAC. Cheney is the power behind the throne. Cheney is the Smoking Gun. It's been said over and over and over. If O'Neill's statements didn't draw everyone in this country a clear picture of who is the primary puppeteer (along with Karl Rove - who's the hatchet man, rather than policy maker)...then there's nothing more to be said.

Rove is there to see that Bush stays in office.
Cheney is there to see that PNAC dominates the globe.

1. Cheney learned his lesson well as Chief of Staff for Gerald Ford....
after Nixon was exposed. He learned how to control the organization - which is what he is trying to do right now.

2. "The vice president called and asked him to resign"
From the transcript of the 60 Minutes O'Neil thing:

“Karl Rove is saying to the president, a kind of mantra. ‘Stick to principle. Stick to principle.’ He says it over and over again,” says Suskind. “Don’t waver.”

In the end, the president didn't. And nine days after that meeting in which O'Neill made it clear he could not publicly support another tax cut, the vice president called and asked him to resign.


Got that? Kinda just slides right through under the radar, doesn't it.

Cabinet secretaries serve at the pleasure of the VICE president now? Yup, apparently that's the case.

3. great observation...
Cheney pulls the strings. Keep that in mind. He's the most dangerous of all the dangerous fascists that rule us. People must know. They don't.
