President Bush and V.P. Cheney both making separate visits in the middle-east...?

He's there to make an oil deal so that when he gets out of office he can go back to work for Halliburton and start making tons of money again.  Just a case of reassuring the Saudis that they're still our buddies and pals.

Does the USA really want Russia as a friend or does the USA want Russia as a foe,, irresponsible comments by Cheney will only inflame relationships and cause further tensions in relation to the Iran issue,, Cheney should butt out of other countries affairs especially Russia they are not going to take his provocation.

You know, usually Vice Presidents are nearly invisible.\n\nWhen Reagan was President, who even heard a whisper from George W. Bush?\n\nWhat's your problem with Cheney?  He seems like a very hard working and decent man.  I certainly like him better than Rumsfeld, whose annoying way of answering questions reminds me of the character Bill Lumbergh from the movie "Office Space".

No.\n\nIf Dick Cheney met with the three major oil companies, it would have been in the form of a hunting trip with the CEOs.  One of them would have been shot.  We would have heard about it in the news.\n\nDick Cheney is the Elmer Fudd of the Republican Party.

The Republican candidate in 2008 will have to distance themself as far from Bush as possible to have even a prayer at winning.  Being Bush's vice president will hurt them, not help them.  As for Cheney, he will be vice president until he dies, or until the term ends, whichever comes first.  He is the most powerful person on the planet, and he loves the job too much to give it up.

I thought is was Dick Cheney?

No. Bush doesn't run the White House, Cheney and Rumsfeld run the White House. Our current president is easily manipulated by these right-wing hawks.\n\nFor more information, read "The Rise of the Vulcans" by James Mann. It describes in intricate detail about how all of these guys have been intertwined in Washington politics for the past 20-25 years.

It is a conflict of interest. But nothing will be done about it.  That is politics. Cheney also has a lot of political experience.  He has been involved with politics for a long time.  Governor of Wyoming, he was on the first President Bush staff and I believe he was on Presidents Nixon and Fords staff. (however don't quote me on that one it might have been a different president)

NO! Even though Bush's Grandfather Prescott "Poppy" Bush helped fund Hitler, there are major differences. Although what Beach Bum wrote is correct, here are the 8 Key differences: \n\n1. Hitler was elected into power.\n2. Hitler did miliary service in a warzone\n3. Hitler took a broken country and turned it into a world power, Bush is taking a world power and turning it into a broken country.\n4. Hitler tried to eradicate Jews, Bush is selling his nation out to the jews\n5. Hitler masterminded a terrorist attack on his own country (Reichstag fire) and blamed his enemies (the communists) to take radical and dictotorial powers. Bush was kept out of the loop when Cheney organised a terrorist attack on the USA to help Bush get dictatorial powers (which Cheney will exercise through the puppet Bush)\n6. Hitler was very intelligent and had a long attention span.\n7. Hitler was a great speaker.\n8. Hitler loved animals.

What is your question? It is Cheney who has gay daughter not Rumsfield.

Let's see, Rummy ran away, (not sure why he resigned,) Cheney has become nearly invisible (have you seen him lately ?) It would have to be a tie between those two. I almost feel sorry for Bush at this point. It LOOKS like he's left holding the bag, so to speak. \np.s. - I don't recall "you" being an option. People on here are testy today.
