Say Bush had to resign over this cover up mess... |
|
Wouldn't that mean Cheyney would be Pres? YIKES!

1. Cheney would get hit first. Scooter Libby. |
|
Nope. Think President Hastert.

3. No, that's not how is goes |
|
Cheney resigns first and Bu$h has to appoint a replacement that must be approved by Congress. Then Bu$h resigns and that person becomes president, not Hastert. That's how Gerald Ford ended up becoming President.

Ford became veep and later Pres because Spiro Agnew resigned. A year or so before Nixon resigned.
If Bush resigned now (with Cheney still veep) then Cheney would be Pres.
Do you still disagree?

In that case Cheney would nominate someone to replace himself and Congress would still have to approve.

6. Which makes one wonder why Hastert hasn't let a few things slip out. |
|
Any one of these pigs would sell their own mother if it meant more power for themselves.

2. He already is! Don't you remember who the puppeteer is? |
|
Why else would Bush sit in a classroom for 7 minutes? He was waiting for Cheney to make the decisions for him because he's too damn chickenshit stupid to make any for himself.

10. Cheney is at the core of this. Not Rove or Libby. |
|
It all goes back to Cheney.

9. Unless the leak gets pinned on Libbey |
|
it will be Cheney. But I doubt that GW will resign over it. He'll have to be impeached, convicted and removed from office to get rid of his sorry ass.
