Make him an offer...
Dick Cheney sends Scooter Libby on a mission 
Charles Grassley is about to discover a horse head in his bed courtesy of Dick Cheney:
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) proposed retooling a resettlement program for foreign refugees to help Americans displaced by Katrina.
But there was little immediate agreement on how to proceed and many notes of discord
[...]
With federal resources stretched, Grassley questioned a rush to temporarily lift the tax on airline fuel, and he lambasted proposals to offer more tax incentives to oil companies for domestic oil exploration. "With $60 [a barrel] oil, you don't need more incentives," he said. "What we need is for the oil companies to take some of their profits and lower the cost of gasoline."
"Fredo Charles, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the family again. Ever."
