Cheney's Notes

More evidence for the theory that Cheney is really in control and will take the hit on this. Slowly leak that Cheney was really behind this. The question that the adminstration faces is merely strategic. The plan before everything hit the fan was to have Cheney take the blame so that the Repub nominee in 2008 had a shot. Since the shit is hitting the fan as far as everything else in this adminstration goes, why not send him up now, rather than later? This way, Repubs. still have a shot in the midterms.
Fitzgerald. I am increasingly thinking that his slow pace is a not a coincidence nor methodical plodding, but rather either his being duped by the admin or him being in with them.
