Baier is talking about Cheney running the show:

Baier: "Some critics claim he's pulling the strings in this administration. Others don't go that far, they say he's managed to figure out the angles and present you with certain options that limit your options when it's time to make a decision comes."

Bush: "I think I'm wiser than that -- than to be pigeonholed or, you know, to get cornered by a wily advisor. Look, that's not the way it works. Dick Cheney walks in and I say, 'What's your advice on this subject?' And he gives it to me and I make up my mind based upon a variety of factors including the advice of key advisors and he is one of them."


I think that confirms it - Cheney IS running the show.

1. Wiser? He probably doesn't bother asking, he's told what to do?

maybe?

2. Why certainly you think that, don't you, george. And when you're in court,

you're going to use yourself as your lawyer.

Just what we need, another judgment call by Jerk-ass. Like you're competent to make a judgment call about anything, junior.

3. "But in the end it's my decision, because I AM THE DECIDER, see?!

4. Problem no. 1: asking Dick Cheney for advice on anything.

5. he might think it but he isn't.

I could think I'm queen of the universe too, but that doesn't make it so.
