Vice President and Secretary of State aren't talking to each other. What an administration! |
From Reuters, 4/17/04:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Vice President ***** Cheney and Secretary of
State Colin Powell are so upset with one another over the Iraq war
that they are barely on speaking terms, according to excerpts from a
new book published in the Washington Post on Saturday.
The book, entitled "Plan of Attack," is not due to be released until
next week but the Post's assistant managing editor, Robert Woodward,
wrote it and the newspaper is reporting from it.
Woodward, perhaps best known for his role in the Watergate scandal
that forced the resignation of president Richard Nixon in 1974,
interviewed administration officials for the book, including Bush.
He writes that the relationship between Cheney and Powell became so
strained over the plans to invade Iraq that Cheney and Powell are
barely on speaking terms.
Powell, Woodward said, opposed the war and believed Cheney was
obsessively trying to establish a connection between Iraq and the al
Qaeda terrorist network.
He said Powell believed Cheney took ambiguous intelligence and treated
it as fact.
"Powell felt Cheney and his allies -- his chief aide, I. Lewis
'Scooter' Libby, Deputy Defense Secretary Paul D. Wolfowitz and
Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Douglas J. Feith and what Powell
called Feith's 'Gestapo' office -- had established what amounted to a
separate government," the Post writes.
"The vice president, for his part, believed Powell was mainly
concerned with his own popularity and told friends at a dinner he
hosted a year ago celebrating the outcome of the war that Powell was a
problem and 'always had major reservations about what we were trying
to do."'

Which proves that Uncle Colin is just another house negro in the
Bush/Cheney administration. A trophy affirmative-action hire for the
"compassionate" conservative *****.
The house negro is now a "problem" because he dared to think for
himself and speak up against Master *****.

The hate you Democrats spew speaks volumes of your lack of character and
integrity. What else needs to be said?

The fact that Powell is the Republinazi "token ***** without the dress"
upsets you for some reason, I see. The fact is that Republinazis are
without a doubt predicated in racism and homophobic hatred. Indeed it
seems to be a requirement since 1988.

So these two pissy criminal motherfuckers are upset.
And the Iraqi people (to say nothing of GI Joe) are paying the cost of
such cheap and tawdry ego clashes!?
