3/18/2008 - BALAD AIR BASE, Iraq -- Vice President Dick Cheney visited Balad Air Base and Logistics Support Area Anaconda to speak with servicemembers stationed here March 18.
snip...
Before addressing the base populace during a rally, the vice president sat down to breakfast with a select group of military members.

"It was an honor to be able to represent my service, the Navy, during breakfast with Vice President Cheney," said Navy Petty Officer 1st Class Michael Powell, leading petty officer for customs at Balad. "It was good to see he is a real person and genuinely cares for us and what we do."

snip...


"I want you to know that we appreciate you and your comrades; we never take you for granted," Vice President Cheney said. "We are inspired by the tremendous work that all of you have done on this deployment and I bring greetings from home and good wishes to all of you on behalf of the President of the United States George W. Bush. On the president's behalf, I want to thank all of you for being part of an extraordinary American team here in Iraq."
snip...
snip...
"From the very beginning, we have had high expectations of the men and women serving here," he said. "We've given you a lot of work to do, and often times a very small amount of time in which to do it, you more than met our expectations.
more...

from other sources
Washington and Gulf sources report that US Vice President Dick Cheney is again talking about possible US military action to shut down Iran’s covert nuclear program.

from what I have seen of the Military aspects they need Turkey's approval to fly over their airspace
and that Cheney is taking British German Israeli and French Intel over the CIA Pentagon and US intel agencies

This man lies all the time and that after his office exposed valerie plame and he has the audacity to still be talking about War with iran is SOOO WRONG!!!
And I think Dick and George are out on a public campaign to make sure the troops don't get any ideas after Fallon's resignation
