Extreme right-wing blogger Atlas Shrugs said on Friday:
I understand Michael Ledeen spoke at a small lunch in DC today. The situation with Condi/Iran reminded him of Churchill's observation about Chamberlain going to Munich to negotiate with Hitler: "He had a choice between dishonor and war. He chose dishonor and got war." Cheney and Rumsfeld are all we have left. That's why the CIA weasels and the Traitor Media will now focus all their guns on them.She is dismayed that Condi may carry the day. She reports that Bush's private nickname for Condi is "44" indicating that he wants her to be the next President. She speculates that Cheney was going to step down before the 2006 election, to be replaced by Condi. Apparently, though, Cheney does not like her soft positions on Iran.
The bottom line is that Cheney is so infuriated at Condi that he may now balk at stepping down and giving her the vice-presidency. “I think you better give her a new nickname,” he reportedly told GW. “I’m going to stick around a while.”
