Dump Cheney for Condi, Bush urged
Sarah Baxter, Washington

REPUBLICANS are urging President George W Bush to dump Dick Cheney as vice-president and replace him with Condoleezza Rice if he is serious about presenting a new face to the jaded American public.

They believe that only the sacrifice of one or more of the big beasts of the jungle, such as Cheney or Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary, will convince voters that Bush understands the need for a fresh start.

The jittery Republicans claim Bush’s mini-White House reshuffle last week will do nothing to forestall the threat of losing control of Congress in the November mid-term elections.

Fred Barnes of the Weekly Standard magazine and author of Rebel in Chief, a sympathetic new biography of Bush, said: “There are going to have to be sweeping personnel changes if people are going to take a second look at the Bush presidency.”

These people don't have a fookin' clue what is REALLY wrong.

very surprised. My gut? No way.

ever happen anyway.

and it would reverse his ratings slump until her connection to the crimes of the first term are repeated endlessly during the process. Even then, those desperately hoping all is not lost for his presidency might just revert to the old standard of blaming the liberal media - and maybe even racism -for picking on her. Isn't she sort of...revered?

acting on the premise that everyone will just do as we ask? It seems to be the only way they conduct any kind of foreign relations. the bully is about to get its ass handed to it methinks.

Maybe all is not what it seams.

Dirty girl she maybe but it's a bit iffy saying so. Maybe her and **** just want some quality time together - unnoticed . Nod, nod, nudge is as good as a wink...... Say no more.....

alienaing more of his base and ending up with giving America the first black, female unelected president. Who knows, amybe that's the only way to get the first female into office in this country.

It would be funny as I doubt she'd have any chance at being reelected but would tie up the Republican Nom.

Cheney and Rummy are running the show and neither Bush nor Condi have a clue.

Bush and some other Repugs have their pick for 2008 already and IMHO it isn't Condi or McCain.

scuttlebutt in Bush crime circles is that Cheney is history, which may mean that he is going to be indicted in Treasongate.

As for Condi Rice, that would be cute--a black woman Bushite for president--but it won't fly, except with people like Andy Young (who said, in the Senate hallway, during Rice's nomination hearing, that the Democrats shouldn't criticize Rice because she is a black woman, thus shitting upon the only one of the two political parties that gave a crap about HIM in 1965!). Most black voters are very poor and don''t get to walk the halls of Congress. I don't think they'll buy it. Nor will anybody else.

Anyway, Condi's Bushite dirty. She's got 9/11 baggage, Iraq war baggage, and Treasongate baggage. She can't win in an honest election. Ahem.

If Cheney and Rove are indicted, Cheney's replacement will not be up to Bu$h. It will be dictated by the GOP factions that are very tired of Bu$hco. That will probably be the case, too, if Rove is indicted and Cheney steps down on his own volition. These bastards have drawn way light from their "pot" of political capital. They are playing a political hand of aces-over-eights, now.


Wild Bill Hickok's last draw?

another name. Quite clever DemoTex.

But that's why I was careful to say "They are playing a political hand of aces-over-eights, now." I intended that any allusion to that hand's fate be figurative only, with respect to the players' political careers. Know what I mean?

and have no idea everyone knows their tell.

Now they are blinkin' and shakin' (like an old dog shittin' peach pits) as the new cards are dealt. Read 'em and weap, assholes!

Your deal, fob.


My Sweet Sirius had a better poker face than Bu$h!

I am the decider. I mean, I make the decisions, and my decision is to keep Cheney. After all, he is the one who came up with the 9/11 idea that made me king. Don Rumsfeld, well, he's doin a heckuva job over there in Iran......uh, I mean Iraq. It's hard work! These guys have to work overtime sometimes. Jeez! And hey, if you think Cheney is a bad shot, you should see Condi shoot a shotgun!

Then someone offs Junior, and she would be the President?

Scary

Very, very, scary

the Soviet Union re-unites and the Cold War is on again. That is what she's good at, right? (snicker)

They've certainly dumped on America, haven't they?

Fred Barnes thinks Bush is a rebel? Only against the established laws of the United States.
As for dumping Cheney for Rice: Not Going To Happen!!! Just more MSM bullshit speculation, to hide the real stories.
As for Cheney resigning voluntarily--you'll see Cheney hunting in pink lingerie before that happens

A little of the bloom has been removed off the Condi rose in the last month or two -- especially with the Cultists who are ticked off at her admission that lotsa mistakes have been made in Dear Leader's war.

Let it happen. Another nail in the coffin. And the Cultists will NEVER support her for President.

eye. She has lied under oath. She lied about knowing about terrorists flying planes into buildings when Dick was conducting a drill of the same type on 9-11, which she certainly would have known about in her role. She has MANY crimes to be exposed.

Wasn't her job before 9-11 happened to pull all intelligence together and connect the dots to stop the event? Wasn't it her job to plan for all possibilities?

You have got to be kidding? She's in this mess as much as anyone else. They are only angling to make her the next president. And if she becomes vice-president, that gives her a title which makes it all the more possible. Then she can continue on with the reigns of terror.

LOL.

The fact that this is even being talked about by Repugs shows the absolute arrogance of the Bushies and their contempt for the Constitution and the American people. Cheney was ELECTED, not appointed. If he was too ill to serve, that would be one thing. But they are talking about replacing Cheney with Condi for political reasons and I've even read he could become Sect. of Defense.

Why have elections at all if afterwards the Decider can just shift people around to wherever he decides he wants them?

He is the power, he is the evil master mind.

Unless...


Unless, Condalicedus is holding something over all the evil empire to force them to do something such.

I think she must hold something over them to be where she is at now. For the repukes to place a woman not to mention a black woman in the position she currently holds is simply not very republican value oriented. Something is amiss there.

I love him there in a prominent public role. He is the true face of the neocon death cult, and we will get mileage out of his evil for many years to come.

Having said that, if Condi's the Veep, Bush will get a ratings bounce that would help his party in the mid-terms. It'd actually take some courage for him to bring her on if only due to the history and ongoing racial bigotry of so many Republican voters.

That's why it'll probably never happen.

are going to place a black woman a heartbeat away from the presidency of the United Fucking States. One who with very little exposure would be revealed to be as dirty as snarlin dick, I don't believe so.

can a husband and wife team be president and vice president?
