Does Anybody Remember William Casey?

[WeDidIt]

Casey was the CIA director during the Iran-Contra scandal.

Casey died of brain cancer in 1987.

During the Iran-Contra hearings, Casey was basically blamed for everything.

Nobody did time for Iran-Contra. Bush the Elder pardoned Weinberger and others. Oliver North later won an appeal avfter being convicted.

Now all I'm gonna say is, have you seen Cheney lately? He doesn't look too healthy to me.

1. North was "following orders", obeying his commander

in chief. by then RayGun had dimentia. they created a clusterfuck in the chain of command, faked openness. it was a joke, but like Mike Tyson says, "the past is history, the future is mystery". dickless prolly cannot sleep.

2. yes, and there was a second Raygun era who also died of a brain cancer

Can't remember the name...my tin-foil was pretty thick at the time.

Cheney sounded a bit like congestive heart failure the other day, but I think it is just that his energizer is low.

3. Casey was also Raygun's campaign manager during the

1980 election. As such, he participated in the ( highly treasonous) "october surprise" visits to Madrid and Paris where he and several other Raygun operatives negotiated with Iranian representatives to hold the American hostages in iran until after the elections were held. Later, this was extended to keep the hostages i=until after Raygun was inaugurated on Jan. 20, 1981. This was all documented by Gary Sick in his book "October Surprise" and various other books. The first Pres. Bush may also have taken part int hese negotiations.

4. He was on tv the other day, he looked crappy but then, he always does.

Remember, he's been falling asleep in meetings for over a year.
