Vice President Cheney will be in Dallas on Friday to deliver a speech to the World Affairs Council. I'll be there. Today I learned from someone involved with the speech that Cheney will make a "major announcement" in the speech....

That's the one interesting and amusing (and plausible) thing GIAH has ever posted.

Also interesting is that Rod gave this the "Iran" tag. Can't imagine much else -- thinking Cheney will produce purported evidence of Iranian shenanigans?

Best of luck with Condi , I hope you get more answers than she gave in the (probably biased) Daily Show clip of her appearance before the oversight committee.

Mr. Dreher,

I wish you'd ask "Condi" why forcing Israel to surrender land to those who've pledged its destruction will work this time, after failing every other time. What prevents Hamas from moving their rocket launchers even closer to Tel Aviv, as they did last time? Will she again demand that Jews be thrown out of their homes? Will ANYTHING be required of the Palestinians other than some vague assurance by Abbas that he wants peace, even as Fatah agents attempted the assassination of Olmert just recently?

Egyptian weapons tunnels to supply terrorists. Is there a nasty letter in the works for Egypt? Might Syria be taken off the Christmas card list after trying to go nuclear?

And you might ask her if the Bush administration is planning the formation of any more terrorist states. They've got a nice one going in the former Yugoslavia; then there's Iraq, which will become a terror state about fifteen minutes after we leave (assuming we ever leave); then there's the democratically-elected Hamas.

Tell her I said, "Nice work."

I think he will resolve all doubts and declare, once and for all, that he is in fact the antichrist.

Actually, I would prefer Rod to say, "Smooth move, ex-lax."

Remember, Ted Kennedy's car has still killed more people than Dick Cheney's gun.

Max, That's only becaue Cheney had "other priorities."
