Celebrity Death Pool candidate; VH-1 Celebreality dating show contestant “Undisclosed Location of Love”; US Army firearms instruction program moving target (Level 1); Old Navy spokesmodel; Supermax prison inmate.
I’d got for star in a Survivor-based show, only the viewers get to vote on when he gets off the deadly jungle filled with cannibals. Until such time as they do, the show doesn’t have a definite ending point, much like Iraq.
Failing that, I can see a bright future for him in religion. The minister’s homily on the existence of the devil would work much, much better with such a prop.
I can also see him making a good horror film actor. A role similar to that clown in the Stephen King movie ‘It’ would be downright chilling. I mean, what could be possibly be scarier than looking into a curbside storm drain and seeing Cheney staring back at you with a shotgun in hand.

“You’ll float…want to float…we all float down here…Saddam floats, you’ll float too. Want an oil derrick? It floats.”
