Who really runs the show for Bushco

Edited on Mon Aug-16-04 11:34 PM by Bush was AWOL

and the Republican party? Most here obviously don't think it is Chimpie, so who is at the top of the pyramid pulling the strings. James Baker, Dick Cheney, 41, old businessman or is it the huge corporations? Who really runs the show for the neo-cons? Who is the most powerful man in this country or the world?

5. Saudi Arabia is running the show?

I know they have huge interests and play a role in our foreign policy and whatnot, but I think they'd be stabbed in the back immediately if we could get away with it. I still think it is a combo of 41, Baker, and Cheney.

8. From a dark hole miles below the surface of the earth, James Baker

controls us all. Cheney shuttles between the hole and the earth's surface as Baker's right-hand man, making sure Baker's orders are carried out.
