"White House Subpoenaed" Week, Cheney enters stage right, spotlight on Dick

[L. Coyote]

HELLO, Reality to Planet Earth, are you falling for the distraction game?

Am I the only one who sees a real propaganda coup succeeding beyond measure here?

BUSH just had the worst week ever in the scandal plagues presidency, and that says a lot because it seems to happen weekly anymore. The river of Congressional subpoenas just started, and what is everyone talking about?

Dick Cheney and a bunch of trivial nonsense compared to the impeachable offenses that should be in the fore of the news and our considerations. Dick spys on employees. HELLO! Bosses do that! Some of this is even old news. Some is important, but not so important that we should lose all perspective.

Take the quiz:

Who ordered the attack on Iraq?

Who ordered the illegal spying?

Who fired the USAs?

Whose former Chief Counsel is now the AG with amnesia?

The list goes on and on and on, and the answer always comes up BUSH, the DECIDER!

HELLO, Reality to Planet Earth. GET A GRIP! FOCUS!

1. this is fine for now.

Impeach Cheney first, so we're not stuck with the bastid after we oust the boy king.

2. Right on, and stay focused on his impeachable offenses. But all this BS

is a pile of it. Cheney spies on staff. Give me a break. Bush spies on everyone illegally. Are people losing focus, or is this the latest mole upwelling?

3. Bush is way too fucking stupid.

He might be an awful guy, but I think that Cheney knows full and well what's going on here. Cheney has put Bush out there to act as Big Brother to the Republicans and Emanuel Goldstein for Democrats.

All the while Cheney is secretly manipulating everything that he needs to to have de facto control.

You are meant to hate Bush, you may even hate Cheney, but hate will do nothing but make you blind and rant in a futile manner as you are, instead of doing something that might actually harm Cheney's rule.

Dick Cheney learned well from the mistakes of Nixon. Dick Cheney has all the same social stumbles of Dick Nixon. He's not interested in people, he doesn't care about glad-handing as the article put it. If he would have been out in front, as the center of attention and discord he would have developed the same intense paranoia. He is still paranoid, but not on a level that other than Valerie Wilson has harmed him like it did Nixon.

He picked himself to be VP and let Bush think he had control. I have no doubt that Cheney has been manipulating Bush's child like mind via controlling the information he receives.

4. You illustrate my point perfectly. And, you forgot to take the quiz!

5. Crashcart's Teflon Is Gone

Something is coming to a head inside the Excutive mansion...and I am not sure what. There's too much dirt coming out about crashcart...a lot of criticism from his former enablers in the corporate media. I'm hearing a bus...but not sure whose being pushed.

Cheney's list of enemies inside the beltway has grown...from the CIA to the DOD to Foggy Bottom to the beltway elite who once feared the bastard, but now see him weakened. The shield that deflected attention and criticism from crashcart has now become a magnet.

While its 7 years too late, at least someone is daring to speak the unspoken. Let's now see where this leads...

6. Great assessment, Kharma Train..

I believe all roads lead to Cheney, but yes, let's see where it leads. At least SOMEONE is getting some light shined on them. Worms fear sunlight and these worms are getting caught on the sidewalk.

7. Let's see. Political Office has already sunk. Resignations and subpoenas

It is quite obvious what is going on. The sharks are tasting the blood in the water. There has been a very noteworthy shift in the media. The 9/11 free pass is way, way over already because the crimes are know, the politization is revealed, and the end is in sight. Cheney has his impeachment resolution in Congress already, albeit still under the table, and as the many (like 36) investigations continue more subpoenas will follow. Numerous actors are in jail and singing all they know, Scooter is packing his tidy whities as I type, many Adminsitration employees are raising their hands and taking the oath before being questioned, lots of this is happening out of view.

The White house just hired a large gaggle of additional attorneys. My guess, line up the crash carts. We are going to need quite a few for this house cleaning. Maybe it would be wise to bring the handcuffs too, lots of handcuffs!

8. Very Good Analysis

It's amazing to see the political dynamic shift here...how cheney's own hubris that used to intimidate is starting to come back to haunt him. It's a slow drip as layers of this onion are pealed away and the extent of the criminality is exposed. I'm sure Waxman knows how widespread this is...and how it will take crashing several gates until he gets to the real "goods". Like any good prosecutor, he's lining up his case to make it as strong as possible.

The fun game to watch here is to see who gets squeezed and who that person gives up. It's a common thread once these type of inquiries get rolling. I suspect we have some career types in places like the DOJ, CIA and DOD that see their chance to lift the stranglehold this regime has on the levers of power and will react with a vengence.

Cheers...

9. Clearly, "the political dynamic shift" was the 2006 election. A repercussive wave is building like

a tsunami in a narrowing bay. I'm certain the Dems have been keeping tabs for years, preparing for the eventual epoch of accountability. They may have been surprised themselves with the Nov. 2004 crest of the wave, and the resultant opportunity to do oversight while the criminals were still in office.

One of the big mistakes made by the Administration old boys may prove to be hiring beautiful young women. Those smart professional women have long careers ahead of themselves, and won't sacrifice the rest of their lives for a bunch of dirty old crooks!

10. Its about time for the cabal to be called in

11. We need an ongoing count of investigations, subpoenas, resignations, jailed Rs
