So we ask again, is Condi Rice worthless?

How is it that just about a week after Condi Rice goes to the middle east, they then send Dick Cheney to go back and talk to the same people on the same agenda?

Or are Olmert and Abbas just a side trip from the trips to Saudi over oil prices and Turkey over the PKK?

  • I think the Saudis might be more flexible on oil prices if Dick skipped Israel.

  • What does the US have left to offer the Saudis?

    They no longer need protection from Saddam.

  • A stable dollar might be nice?

  • Can't they just switch to the euro? Do they need a stable dollar? It's not like Americans will start living within their means, or engage in energy saving technology.

    Nah. We got nuthin' on the Saudis.

  • Yeah, they'd like a more stable dollar, but it's not like the Bush admin has that to offer.

    What are they going to do? Balance the budget after seven years? Ha.

  • Cheney's going over there to tell them that like it or not, we're going to bomb Iran. That's why Fallon resigned.
