Cheney Contract

In his deepest (as deep as he can go), darkest thoughts...I wonder how much Bush ultimately kicks himself in the ass. Or if he doesn't yet...I wonder when the time comes, in the twilight of his life, when he and Cheney have split ways for decades and perhaps after Cheney gets put 6 feet under: How much must/will Bush kick himself for giving any thought to trusting Cheney. Cheney did a number. He was in charge of the VP committee, of which, he nominated himself. He dominated every possible aspect of Bush's Residency. He essentially led Bush around by the nostril, with the help of Wolfowitz and Rummy.

I wonder if Bush will ever fully understand how he let his feeble-minded self be so taken advantage of, how his residency was hijacked not by 9/11, but by Cheney.

And I wonder if in that twilight, when Cheney is long gone, if Bush gets angry and bitter. Angry, bitter, and vitriolic to the point where he does interviews, releases specific documents, to show what Cheney had done to him.

I doubt it will ever happen for several reasons, but I'd love to be in whatever room Bush is in when/if he manages to put all the pieces together and see the ashen look that most certainly will come over his old face. For if there is a "maker" (there isn't), he will certainly fear the moment he faces him/her.
