Cheney Dealing Personally With The Saudis Scares The Shit Out Of Me.
What the fuck is this man up to? Did he have to go SIGN something? Why the hell did he fly for eight hours to have one 'Secret' meeting with one man. And where the hell is the state department???? This can be NOTHING but bad news. IMHO.

Very Scary.:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:Scary.:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:Scary.:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:Scary.:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:Scary.:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:

3. Is Dick planning WW3?
Dick is scary. Let's hope that this meeting gets attention in the news cycles starting Monday, because it has so far slipped under the radar.

4. I think he goes to Saudi Arabia when he wants to feel good about himself
And he goes bird hunting when he feels cornered.

6. This has to be some serious shit. As they say, Cheney is not a diplomat. He's a Warmonger.
Oil Perhaps????

5. I think that the Jim Baker III/Iraq Study Group is about the Saudis
What I mean is that the group is representing the Saudis' interests. Note that Baker's message is--we have to address Palestine/Israel to stabilize Iraq. This is as opposed to the Rumsfeld/neocons' message--we have to knock off Saddam, bully Iran, and then the Palestinians will come to terms.

8. Maybe the Saudis were a little late with their payment last month.
Now the enforcer has to "refresh their memories" a little.

9. He's giving the Saudis security guarantees for when the U.S. attacks Iran.
And perhaps bringing a few suitcases of money to sweeten the deal.

No doubt oil production is being discussed as well.

11. Oh, relax. I'm sure we'll hear all the details eventually.
After all, this has been the most open and transparent administration in our history.

Do I really need to add :sarcasm: ?

12. Could be some kind of 'end run' deal before the Dems take control of Congress.
We STILL don't know who attended Cheney's Energy conference when the cabal first took office. Maybe our new Congress can shine a few million candlepower lights on these crooks.

14. IIRC, we did get the list of names, but not the notes from the Energy Meetings
As decided by the Supreme Court, who is so wise and impartial :sarcasm:

16. I don't trust the Saudis.
Their regime is a flagrant human rights violator and they spawned Osama bin Laden and 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers.

Bush "promised" he'll go after those governments who harbor terrorists, then why is he cozying down with one of those governments? He wants to cover the Saudis assess or something?

King Abdullah urges Cheney to give diplomacy with Iran more time.
Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz urged Vice President Dick Cheney to give diplomacy more time before pushing for Iran’s referral to the United Nations Security Council over its nuclear program, the Arab News reported today. Egypt also urged Cheney to give negotiations with Iran more time.

King Abdullah and Cheney met yesterday for a wide-ranging discussion at the King’s ranch near Riyadh.
The talks addressed Iraq and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as well as growing tension between Syria and Lebanon. Both King Abdullah and Cheney agreed on the need for Syria to cooperate with the UN probe into the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Al-Hariri, according to a Saudi official.

King Abdullah underscored the need for the US to help the Palestinian Authority and to support efforts to implement the road map and achieve President Bush’s stated vision of an independent Palestinian state. The king expressed satisfaction with US facilitation of the Jan. 25 Palestinian legislative elections.

That, according to Woodward's latest book, Cheney's closest advisor is Henry the War Criminal Kissinger, and I'd just like to :hide:
