Waiting for The Bus

...Because they're gonna throw Dick Cheney under the wheels:


NYT says Senior Official Confirmed Bush Ordered Leak


It certainly looks like they're circling the wagons around the Prez, keeping a firewall between him and Scooter...and that Firewall is DeadEye Dick.

Really, couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Unfortunately, what will get lost in the hoo-rah is that Bush, when all is said and done, ordered the leak for political reasons. As Skippy pointed out in his letter, it is completely in keeping with Rove and Bush's MO - Rove got kicked off the BUSH 41 election team for that kind of behavior, but apparently 43 has a much more acquired taste for the slime 'n' smear.
