Methinks SoS Rice just discovered an amusing loophole.
Rice Insists Cheney Supports Diplomacy for Iran
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Friday that Vice President Cheney fully supports a diplomatic course over Iran’s nuclear program, denying impressions of divisions among President Bush’s foreign-policy advisers.
“The president of the United States has made very clear what our policy is. That policy is supported by all of the members of his cabinet — and by the vice president of the United States,” Rice said at a news conference here after talks with Spanish officials.
The veep supports engaging with Iran? Baloney. Sensible people including and especially Condoleeza Rice recognize that the vice president views talking with Iran as one step removed from giving Osama Bin Laden a cabinet post. But we also know that Cheney will speak to the press when pigs fly. Hmm.

Or as we call it, Air Force One.

Only problem is, ElBaradei’s “new crazies” aren’t all that new. Hell, Cheney himself let slip his gameplan for Iran about 2 years ago when he said that he thought Israel might attack first. Problem is, Israel has been, to this point, saying, “No…YOU guys attack Iran.”
Everybody wants to jump in the pool. Its just a matter who does the first cannonball off the high board.

If you didn’t care what happened to me
and I didn’t care for you
we would zig-zag our way through the boredom and pain
occasionally glancing up through the rain
wondering which of the buggers to blame
and watching for pigs on the wing.

Ummm, sorry, I forgot to credit that:
Pigs on the Wing
Pink Floyd
from the Animals album
Punchy
I’m still waiting for Playboy to issue their “Girls of the Bush Cabinet” featuring Margret Spellings, Elaine Chao, Michael Chertoff, and Condelezzie Rice in a pair of pumps and a pink thong.

Thanks, the greatness of Pink Floyd cannot be overstated.

Is that anything like the Crazy Girls posters, billboards and statue in Vegas? I think I’ll pass. Crazy Girls is much nicer on the eyes, I think.

just when you thought that Condi couldn’t have less credibility….

On their Momentary Lapse of Reason album the song “The Dogs of War” is an extremely telling description of BushCo, I’ve always felt.

Ha ha, charade you are!
Rome Again started it.

The wording here is ambiguous. Are we just talking about Condie in the pumps/thong combo? If not, is it separate pumps/thongs for all of the above, or all of them squeezed into the same pair?
Rome Again
Yes, I did… and don’t you forget it. ;)
So, is Little Georgie the “well heeled big wheel”?
Punchy
Let’s put Spellings in a teddy, Cherty in some stockings, and Chao just naked as a jaybird, aside from the drapes and carpeting, licking the top corner of the Constitution.
Yes, John, I’ve hijacked your post. My bad.

And the response, from “final cut”:

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you, you’ll get your chance to put the knife in.

That’s Dogs from the Animals album, by the way. Don’t mean to scare anybody.

You’ve gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.
You know it’s gonna get harder (harder) harder (harder) as you get older… yeah, but in the end you’ll pack up, fly down south.. hide your head in the sand…
Yeah, that sounds like Bush too. Great song! So much of what Pink Floyd did reminds me of our current political affairs.

yeah, well those 28%er sheep had it coming to them.

Ah, but of course. I know who I’d pick for “big man, pig man” but I’m still not sure about the fucked up old hag. Rove perhaps?
Rome Again
Well, I’ll bet Rove is hot stuff with a hat pin and good fun with a hand gun.

“But we also know that Cheney will speak to the press when pigs fly. Hmm.”
Okay, Pink Floyd aside, can’t Cheney just give an interview to Limbaugh or Fox?
