I don't know if anyone had a chance to watch Nightline last night, but the program focused on Cheney's influence on the President. This was brought up again due to Bush's insistence that Cheney accompany him to the 9-11 Commission Hearing in the oval office.

While I don't hate Bush, I have often doubted if he had enough depth to handle this incredibly difficult job as commander in Chief. The fact that he didn't answer the questions alone brings to light many obvious questions...

the program went on to point out the Cheney made 10 trips, personally to Langley, which has been attributed in Woodward's book as a mission to get evidence of WMDs in Iraq. Then in August 2002, Cheney made a speech to a Veterans Group claiming that the CIA now has reports that there is evidence of WMD's. CIA operatives have been quoated as indicating the Cheney pressured them to agree with his reports. Bottom line to the message is that Cheney was a "steamroller."

I also find it interesteing when asked - • Did Rumsfeld advise the president to go to war?
April 29: 'He did not ask me,' says Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.

The lack of consensus within his own administration is amazing on such an important issue, let alone the lack of details for justifying it.
