Cheney Allegedly Offers to Trade Carter for Hostages
by Scott Ott
(2007-03-25) — A source close to Dick Cheney said today that the vice president has suggested freeing 15 British sailors and marines from Iranian captivity by trading former President Jimmy Carter for the hostages.
The deal, which Mr. Cheney reportedly believes “has a certain poetic justice to it”, would require an executive order signed by President George Bush, but the unnamed source said presidential adviser Karl Rove “can take care of that as usual without bothering the president with the details.”
White House insiders said the trade would not violate the Bush administration’s policy of refusing to negotiate with terrorists, “since only one party in this deal would receive anything of strategic value.”
Scrappleface, or not, I think it's a wonderful idea! Bye-bye, Jimmy.
Sweeten the deal - throw in Jesse Jackson too!
LOL! God I love that site.
Hey, the Iranians are evil but they're not stupid !!!
Sounds like a great trade to me.
I'm sure we could get some Georgia peanut farmers to throw in some peanuts to sweeten the deal.
I would trade him for much less.
Oh Hell yes. Scrappleface or not, this is a great idea.
As I've suggested in the past, SEND Jimmy Carter as an envoy to negotiate with Tehran, and then just as he's stepping off the plane in Iran, the White House announces there is ABSOLUTELY NO BASIS for the accusation that Carter was a paid agent of the Shah's SAVAK secret service.
Nope, absolutely no way that could have been, Carter had nothing to do with SAVAK, no, nothing at all.
In fact, if the mullahs were to interrogate Jimmy, they would find that out for themselves. ;)
The Iranians would like Jimmy Carter -- he's a Nazi.
Ott for president! LOL!
You're gonna love this one..
You are correct, Jimmy Carter is a Nazi, bought and paid for by several arab golf states.
Perhaps Jimmy "The Nazi" Carter could help the Iraninans build homes.
MizSterious, you asked for it - go here!

I "lust in my heart" for a solution by which the Brits are freed and a couple of Iranians go off to meet their 72 virgins.
Seriously, prayers our good friends - the British Marines and peace of mind for their families.
LOL - we could probably put together quite a package, in fact. Carter, Jesse, Rosie...
LOL--now, where do I get the bumper stickers?
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted smartly and said, GOOD TRADE MR. PRESIDENT, GOOD TRADE."
and I'm sure that our British Friends would like to throw in George Galloway on the deal
