Cheney Next on the Chopping Block?

According to Washington insiders, there are moves afoot to dump Vice
President *** Cheney and replace him with either John McCain or
Rudolph Giuliani prior to the 2008 presidential election. Whoever
succeeds Cheney will be able to campaign for the presidency with the
perks that come with being an incumbent Vice President.

Since the increasingly-besieged Cheney has signaled he has no intention
of voluntarily stepping down, the strategy by the Bush camp may be to
force him out by presenting evidence before Special Counsel Patrick
Fitzgerald that it was Cheney who was responsible for the compromise of
CIA non-proliferation covert officer Valerie Plame Wilson and her
Brewster Jennings & Associates cover firm.

Observers note the unusual professional relationship between Fitzgerald
and Karl Rove's defense attorney Robert Luskin. Insiders believe that
Fitzgerald may be proffered a carefully crafted deal by Luskin whereby
Rove will testify to Cheney's primary role in the outing of Mrs. Wilson
and her firm. The sealed indictment of Rove will then be retired
permanently. If such a deal is worked out, Fitzgerald may then offer a
deal to Lewis I. "Scooter" Libby, Cheney's former Chief of Staff, to
also testify against Cheney. With such double-barreled testimony,
President Bush will then be compelled to ask Cheney for his resignation
or face a very nasty and public indictment.

The game plan appears to be what DC insider Sally Quinn foresaw in her
Washington Post op-ed last month, an article that suggested she has
spoken extensively to a Donald Rumsfeld who was aware of his impending
firing. The op-ed stated that Rumsfeld would not be the scapegoat for
Iraq and planned to resign shortly after the election. Quinn, seemingly
channeling Rumsfeld, stated that after Rumsfeld left, there will be
only two scapegoats left: *** Cheney and George W. Bush. The article
concluded by asking which person would be served up as the official
scapegoat for Iraq.

This editor wrote, "based on the arrival of James Baker and a coterie
of George H. W. Bush old hands on the scene to bail out Dubya, it is
clear that the Bush family does not intend to allow one of its own to
be declared scapegoat."

With word from White House sources that Cheney was opposed to the
sacking of his old mentor Rumsfeld and even more resistant to the
naming of Bush family loyalist Robert Gates to take his place, it is
clear that Cheney doesnot want to be placed in a position of exposure.
However, even Cheney neo-con allies like Richard Perle and Ken Adelman,
sensing that Cheney is the designated scapegoat, have bellowed about
the Iraq war being a mistake and are now distancing themselves from the
Cheney group, once the most powerful operating cell within the Bush
administration.
