Cheney, Dick

[Rhythmdvl]

You Cheney-Cheneying Cheny Cheneyster, like a Cheny Cheney Cheneyed naked Chaney and with a Chenyish Cheney Chenyly Chaneying from your Chaneyhole.

Sorry if that’s not creative enough, I tried thinking of more repugnant words, but nothing came to mind that topped the Cheney Cheneyesque reaction in my Cheney. Fogive the Cheneying repetitiveness, but it’s Cheney as I could get.

You Cheney’d up the country worse than the 9/11 gang by making us more of a target, making it easier for Chenyheads to recruit, and Cheneying on our civil liberties. Now you’re trying to take the mantle of a shadow government and still push your repudiated agenda?

Go drink a tall glass of Santorum, Cheneywit.

[initech]

Cheney you, right up the Cheney.

[Fotheringay-Phipps]

Speaking of Cheney, his poll numbers are rising, although he still has a long way to go.

[Shodan]

Giving a speech is forming a shadow government? Or is it disagreeing with The Blessed One?

Or is it that no former VP should ever disagree with the President? Because that would be forming a shadow government, and we don’t want that.

Shodan

[Rhythmdvl]

Who the Cheney said anything about a “blessed one”? I think you’re a little too attached to Rush’s Cheney there.

[Gangster_Octopus]

I will say it, no former VP should come out and criticize a sitting President in regards to national security issues especially in his first year in office. I do not say this should be a law, I say this should be an act that respects the Office of President and the institution of Democracy.

That is just my opinion.

BTW, why does Cheney hate freedom?

And when [our enemies] see the American government caught up in arguments about interrogations, or whether foreign terrorists have constitutional rights, they don’t stand back in awe of our legal system and wonder whether they had misjudged us all along. Instead the terrorists see just what they were hoping for - our unity gone, our resolve shaken, our leaders distracted. In short, they see weakness and opportunity.

Sorry Mr. Cheney, those are strengths, not weaknesses.

[Lightnin]

I thought we fired his ass- why the he’ll is he still getting airtime?

Oh, because we’ve still got morons on the right who will swallow anything a Republican presents to 'em, I guess. Oh, hey there, Shodan.

What possible conclusion could or should be drawn from that factoid considering that the same article points out the following:

Former President George W. Bush’s favorable rating rose 6 points in that same time period, and Bush has not given a single public speech since he left office.

Revisionist partisan zealots are overcoming their shame and coming out of hiding?

Cheney has pretty much dedicated the past few months to disagreeing with everything Obama says. Cheney’s ideas and policies have made us less safe, not Obama’s.

And would you kindly drop that stupid joke? Nobody thinks Obama is the second coming.

I could not disagree more. When a sitting politician takes actions that anyone, even a former president or vice-president disagree with they should make their case, and make it loudly and publicly. If more politicians would have done this in 2001-2002 then maybe the course of the Bush presidency would have been completely different.

I find it amusing this ghoul spent eight years in an “undisclosed location” and he’s on TV more than Regis.

When he dies (if he can die, that is), I’ll buy the first round.

Naw. Bush didn’t listen to anyone who wasn’t telling him what he wanted to hear.

In general, politicians tend to be more popular out of office than in it.

But it’s something to keep an eye on.

They also tend to be more popular when they aren’t shooting their friends in the face.

Not sure where you’re heading with this, honestly. But I doubt I’ll be the only one celebrating Cheney’s posthumous trip to the bottom floor of hell.

Heh… probably heading to a bar

I don’t believe it should be as extreme as no criticism, but this concerted media effort is disgusting. I said it before: I think Cheney hopes American will die.

Cheney’s shooting & you offering to buy a round.

Get it?

I am ashamed to have missed a pun. Thoroughly, thoroughly ashamed.

Well, if you feel that strongly about it Mr. Cheney, why don’t you just shut the fuck up? And then the terrorists won’t see any arguments or division, they’ll see unity and strength. So if you really thought this, you’d shut the fuck up and start supporting the fucking President.
