Would that be socialism as in Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and many other useful programs that many Americans, (Republicans included), rely on?

It's interesting how right wing nut jobs lament "socialism", but are more than willing to receive the benefits.

Shame on you! Classic republican attack strategy...attack the intelligence of those that refuse to drink the republican koolaid.

"OmustGo" will buy half...

You mean like Cheney who flunked out of Yale?

What gives you the idea that Obama is a Socialist? Just because he's for health care doesn't mean that he's a Socialist. It's this kind of extreme statement that makes any meaningful discussions among mature adults possible. If you're interested in the well being of the country, some specific ideas will be more helpful than insults.

Shame on you! Classic republican attack strategy...attack the intelligence of those that refuse to drink the republican koolaid.

You mean like all the people on here attacking a book they haven't read yet? I guess dems can dish it out, but cry foul when they get it back.

About as many copies as Palin's quick to DVD documentary....and Ann Coulter's last book.....

Buy today, $.99 only, and you get a subscription to every right wing publication available!

Up until now you have just been spouting mindless rhetoric...but the affirmative action comment was disgusting. I don't care what your politics are, being a vile, racist, hate mongering lowlife is repulsive in any party, in any form, in any context....please go away

OmustGo

not sure smart is all it's cracked up to be

Then why are you bragging about going to an "Ivy League"? Just judging by how you write, no way did you go to an Ivy League. Again, as like above, you have little man syndrome and need to grow up. Get a real education. If I were you, I'd be really mad at Bush since "no child left behind" didn't work for you.

Ivy League material. Riiiiight O. Sure you are.

Amazing what one can make themselves to be on the internet.

LMAO. Pathetic.

OmustGrowUp

OMustGo: "Ivy League" has nothing to do with the baseball you played as a kid.

OmustGo:

"ivy league"? Really? Is that the name of your over-50 softball league?

sad little libtards. by the way... you seen O new rating numbers? wow. lol

Uh, no, I guess I not seen them.

I know a little about the "ivy league", and your post, which is high on 6th grade grammatical creativity and low on substance, casts doubts on your claim. You have to show me a little more before I believe convenient lies told by random people on the Internet.

You did catch that Cheney left Yale due to failing grades, right? So I'm curious...do you consider him an "ivy-leaguer" too?

Ivy League schools are all about who you know, not what you know. Completely overrated as a measure of education IMO.

OmustGo

hey dave... didn't O graduate first in his class? or close?

Boy you really missed points there. Surely as a complete right-wing nutjob you are aware that President Obama has never revealed his grades. I mean it has been a main talking point so often I am surprised you didn't jump all over that.

Continue as if you were normal....

OmustGo,

I didn't know that and don't care

Obviously you do care, because you referenced his graduation status.

smart is overrated

If you mean smart as in high grades is overrated, that is possibly the first thing you've said today that I can actually agree with along with recruiters for many major companies these days who do not want that 4.0GPA college grad with no work experience and will pick the 2.5GPA kid with 4 years of hands on work in his/her field first.

I think that his book is going to be more like the ultimate series of Vampire Stories...The latest edition of Twilight for Red Necks

OmustGo

Oh yeah, I'm reading it, alright. It makes for amusing dinner conversation.

dick cheney admitted it once, on film.

"How close he came to destroying this country", the United States..

here:http://www.alternet.org/story/115087/

nice job, republicans, and GOP....he admitted it..

For those people that believe waterboarding is a good idea, just remember that this exposes our own troops to torture and is a recruiting tool for our enemies.

Also, most "interrogators" say that there are better ways to get reliable information.

Dick: Heads Exploding in DC. The title says it all!

I never read fiction from azz wipes like him.

which would 2000 more than Obama's Book..

Actually, Obama has published two best sellers -
Dreams from my Father
The Audacity of Hope

He's also published " Of Thee I Sing: A Letter to My Daughters" with the proceeds going to charity

Any one of those would have sales records greater than Cheny.

Obama knew no one. And being head of the law review at any ivy league school is an impressive feat. As opposed to being the janitor at a community college. Ask OmustGosweepnow.

harrumph...I know you've all been wondering what I've been up to these few months...harrumpmh...well, here in the bunker with my wife Liz... whoops... didn't mean that... harrrumph...I've been writing my memoirs...entitled "From a secure undisclosed location." Pretty catchy, huh? You just can't be too safe, you know...nobody knows how dangerous the world is like I do... harrumph...And when this book hits AMerica will want me back... Yes, they will... Because they know Dick Cheney is the only one who can keep the country safe... harrumph... Liz! LIZ!!!! The Flying Monkeys are attacking! The Flying Monkeys!!!!!!

What low-lifes some here are. This book is as close to a declaration in expectation of death as such things can be.

Indict this war criminal.

Given the number of comments reacting to Cheney's head exploding news, I realize mine will probably never be read. Still, I want it recorded in the archives.

If you are progressive--or simply patriotic--please do not buy this book. Do not put one penny into this man's hands. Steal the book if you need to read it; download it as a torrent. But do not give this person any of your money.

I recall Bush & Cheney's last days in office and CNN ran a contest asking readers to dress the Bush & Cheney paper dolls in a uniform that would reflect their post-White House occupations. The next day, after receiving thousands of entries, CNN announced that it would no longer be accepting entries depicting the paper dolls in prison uniforms.

If this administration was so right about things, why don't any Republicans ever mention their names or invite Bush/Cheney to campaign for them?

Hi, Dick Cheney, non-conservative, invasion of privacy, and full of yourself betrayer of secret agents working for the United States? How is that Maoist agenda going that you pretend you don't have? Go back to your 6 year old bedroom where your ideas come from, while actual thinking Republicans and conservatives bury your image and ideas.

Be happy you aren't in jail for life for what you have done. No, NO, no other President or Vice President alive deserves even close to the punishment you receive. That includes your ex-boss Bush W. and Obama. Sorry, they don't.

Hopefully the heads that will explode will be those of his entire treasonous, lying, conniving and despicable family lineage, starting with his own!

Don't kid yourself CM...this book will fly off the shelves. It will go home in plain brown wrappers with libs who will read it under the covers by flashlight.

Not likely. As Cheney still believes Saddam Hussein attacked us on 9-11, not to mention the continued belief in Saddam's hidden cache of WMD's. And his continued statement that "everyone agreed with the evidence at the time" - which was certainly NOT the case. Who will believe this latest yarn?

No wonder Obama isn't doing his job. He's busy writing pretty prose to his daughters. He'll have plenty of time to do that after the election.

Awwww. Gee that's a great statement - what has that to do with anything. I guess the same as George Bush reading "My Pet Goat" while we were attacked. Oh wait, it's NOT the same. You fill in whatever you want on that one.

IRESPOND: Don't think that our enemies ARE NOT torturing our soldiers. They always have... Waterboarding is a far cry from beheading..

No. It's not. One is murder, the other is torture. NEITHER is acceptable.

Looks like Cheney is right about heads exploding after reading many of the comments here today.

I look forward to Dick's book - it will be an eye opener for sure, a best seller, and will certainly make heads spin on both sides of the aisle.

Some of you think that he will only expose the insanity of the left, my guess is that he has plenty of dirt on the right as well.

I feel he's taken enough money from the American people without trying to sell a book....and probably not even a good one. I too, wait for his obit.

OK NO BODY go on a hunting trip with this guy if he's carrying his book.

finally a work of fiction to rival steven king

He knows how to write?

Could we please get a answerer on when Dick will announce his GOP candidacy?

Has Ex-GOP Vice president Cheney decided on his running mate at this time?

Every one in the Democratic Party would like to thank Mr. Cheney in advance for coming out and securing President Obama’s 2012 Victory.

The GOP head explosions should start any minuet.

You mean like all the people on here attacking a book they haven't read yet? I guess dems can dish it out, but cry foul when they get it back.

At least everyone here attacking Cheney is ON TOPIC. Unlike the Tea Party and anti Obama trolls that never bother to read the article they are posting on.

Unlike Mr. Cheney, Obama actually graduated from Harvard, and was the editor of the Harvard Law Review. They don't give that position to slackers like Cheney. Put this with Ricky Perry's 2.0 GPA at Texas A&M, and it's obvious that tea makes you stupid. But hey, who needs fancy book learnin, right? Books are written by liberals, unless you're a conservative, then they're written by ghost writers. You really think Sarah Palin sat down and wrote a book? LOL.

guess i'll wait and buy...the we water boarded the truth out of dick cheney version to come out...

I might read the book...borrow from the library. I would like to know how much of the billions missing in Iraq went to Cheney.

Cheney is just a guy who see's the world in Black in White, mainly white...

I actually voted for Bush in his first run, but immediately lost respect for the Administration when ENRON and Dynergy (sp?) were causing power outages in California to run up Power prices, Bush and Cheney looked the other way and actually defended their actions.

This could be interesting, especially if He's undergone an attack of conscience.

Biden: statesman, gentleman, diplomat, all around respected guy.

Then there was Cheney......

Pmark says:

We'll never know if Barry Hussein was first in his class or not since he's spent 7 figures squashing public access to all of his educational records and history.

Actually, the accusations were that he spent "7 figures" trying to prevent his birth certificate from becoming public. That was, of course, the right-wing FOX news rallying cry before he blew that "logic" out of the water by voluntarily releasing it.

Your post is a beautiful illustration of how so many of the right-wing criticisms of Obama are prima facie ludicrous. I use the word ludicrous intentionally with full understanding of its meaning.

Words, definitions, and reality...you should try that sometime.

I understand the very human desire to want to rail against that which you disagree with...but you really do lose all credibility when you make things up. My 7 year old daughter could see through most of the right-wing propaganda so often spewed about Obama.

"Daddy, why does the tea party hate black people"?

7 years old. You guys need to update your repertoire.

There is NOTHING in WASH, DC that would shock anyone anymore--crooked Politicians are a dime a dozen-on both sides of the two parties.--

America is made corrupt with most of the Leaders who are President; we don't know the truth, which in some ways protects our Classified Top Secret ways of dealing with other corrupt Governments, such as Libya. Protection of all citizens should be the biggest priority. I do believe Cheney was Head of the Intelligence Agencies at one time.

Cheney is a good man. No one has walked in his shoes dealing with the Wars that confronted Bush/Cheney, 9/11--they may have had differences of opinions ---only doing what he knew was right for the Country at that time. All Presidents think they do things that are right for the country and it's citizens.

Doing too many things at once for this country gets nothing done.

We must be Hawks when it comes to the ME/and N. Africa, or we will easily go down their path--also their Extreme Religion becoming first and foremost in America---Do you want that?

Cheney is terminally ill. This is his last stand---have some compassion for humankind, please.

I don't think Death Wishes from Commentors is appropriate when trying to get a point acrosss. It is both immature, and negative to the subject discussed.

Cheney is terminally ill. This is his last stand---have some compassion for humankind, please.

No thanks. I love people, I really do. Therefore the only explanation for my feelings for Cheney and his constitutional subverting, war mongering, no bid contracting, presidential puppeteering, national energy policy hijacking, science hating ways is that he is not human.

After all, what human being does not have a heart beat? He sure benefits a lot from science for a guy who hates science. Maybe the only explanation that makes any sense is that he really is a vampire...

If right-wingers can think Obama is a Kenyan born Muslim who hates America and caused the financial crisis by spending like a drunken sailor and who wants to turn America into a socialist country, I certainly can believe Cheney is a vampire, right? I was going to say that these two views are equal in their reliance on facts, but on second thought I think the vampire theory holds more weight than the Obama socialist Kenyan Muslim theory. I mean, one theory is demonstrably false while the other is merely fantasy, right? And fantasy wins over that which is demonstrably false, right?

Right.

i will wait for he movie ! I wonder who will play Cheney.

@4moreyears!, some Dick I'm sure.

Cheney is a war criminal wanted all around the world! you won't see him jetting around! WHO THE hell cares what he writes or says?

Here he is NOW! — http://www.impeachbush.org/sitePageServer

http://www.impeachbush.org/site/PageServer

This is more correct. Click on the dated columns to the side.

I see that heads of the wrong are already exploding.

Too funny.

Tom343: What low-lifes some here are. This book is as close to a declaration in expectation of death as such things can be.

Bye Dick. Don't let what's left of Earth's atmosphere hit you in the ass on the way out.

Even reading about Cheney makes me want to take the endless shower of a rape victim.

Tom11 predicts that Cheney's book will 2000 copies. I'm staying neutral on my comments about the book and its author. However, I predict the book will sell well into the hundreds of thousands.

Let me explain why:

1. Cheney was and still is controversial and Americans like to read about controversy.

2. Americans, contrary to what our European friends think, are awake and conscious about the goings on in America and the world and stayed informed.

3. Americans love a good debate and love better to engage in one.

4. Americans are open-minded enough (well, in general) to take in opposing points of view.

This book will satisfy all four of the above.

(No, I'm not his publicist, just one of you.)

I know whose head I'd like to see explode! Himself.

The much maligned 'Darth Vader' Cheney was one of the most experienced and influential Vice Presidents in history, and it appears that he was right on the vast majority of issues, with an amazing ability to see the future results of actions. Joe Biden pales in comparison.

Of course, so does Obama. When it comes to leadership skills, Obama is on vacation or golfing.

Michelle

You're comment is funny only bc you're a woman. :p cut me some slack though, I'm only 18.

My book will have ‘heads exploding’

At last! The closet terrorist unleashed.

Go away, Dick. You've caused enough harm already.

Enterprise to Roy WIlson ... Enterprise to Roy Wilson ... I can't reach him Captain, he's in another universe and has lost all touch with REALITY!!!!!

The only head I would, like to see explode is Cheney's. Don't by his book.

Let this man tank and sink into the ground like the parasitic piece of schyt he is.

funny man that Cheney..... ... reminds me of a Monty Python sketch............and now for something completely different, a man with 3 buttocks.

Dick Cheney is really obsessed with torture and weapons of mass destruction, isn't he ? I find it appalling that anyone would buy his book when so many suspect, and not only in america but all over the world, that he is the one that organized 9/11 ! He had to gain everything from this terrorist attack, the patriot act which takes freedom away from people and spy on them, and all the money he made by attacking an innocent country. Only he and his war friends had to gain from this, nobody else ! And Bin Laden certainly did not attacked the usa as the neocons tried to make us believe ! Ben Laden died in may 2001 of renal failure !

Dick Cheney is a dangerous sociopath that uses the same tactics as the nazis. Neocons are nazis ! Their goal is to enslave the american people and get rid of the poor, the weak and the old.+

Watch this documentary and see why Dick Cheney had to gain so much !

Loose Change 911 An American Coup - Full Length • HD - YouTube

I wonder if Valerie Plame will buy his book?

chien...., youtube is now a reliable source of information? You've got to be kidding. The National Enquirer is more reliable. Take off the tin foil hat and beginning Sunday 8/28 watch the National Geographic Channel over the next week, then report back here and make the case for these insane conspiracy theories. If you still believe the evil Team Bush/Cheney were behind this, then Bill Clinton was too, and you are certifiable or an anarchist.

hardtostarboard: I won't watch any suggestion of youtube. Anyone can make a video espousing their issue. I'm going with your comment to chien. Blind trust.

Cheney says his book will have heads exploding..........

heads have been exploding--literally- because of what you said and did, for the past ten years.

why pay to read about it when you can turn on the tv and see your wonderful works still in action.

I wouldn't buy your book ever.............you, sir, caused the deaths of so many people because of your actions........you who dodged the draft by pretending to go to college....real brave...

coward.

Heads will explode - only if within range of his shotgun.

It is a historic documentary, people not some kind of video where some idiots are talking !

4moreyears, they already made that movie- and it was James Earl Jones. I'm sure you've seen it.

(get it??)

Once a Dick, always a ____.

You really do need to learn basic grammar and punctuation. Why don't you bring a book with you the next time you head down to join the six people at the Glenn Beck rally?

Just put him on ignore. He's just a little troll. Nothing more.

DNFTT!!!!!

Indict this war criminal.

Sidney, your comment and insult "Youre a twit as most repubtards are" only show your own hate and bigotry.

Most? Really? There is no way on earth you can know "most" so measured in realistic terms you cannot know of what you speak. Adding an insult to your bigoted comment only shows your hate. Don't we have enough idiots like OmustGo without adding to the dimwittery?

Considering the facts Chronocide, that should not have made me laugh, but damned if it didn't. I still like the old saying, Dick Cheney, before he Dick's you.

@2late2matter:

But hey, for laffs, we can all wait for Joey Bidens pamphlet of how fun Obamio was to be with. How many vacations they shared...stuff like that.

Are you criticizing Obama and Biden for taking vacations? Before 9/11, GWB had taken more vacation time than any other president. And don't you remember the careless way that GWB spoke about the war (a very serious matter) as he played a round of golf? That was on film and played over and over on the news and the "fake news" as well. So you have a problem when our president and vice president take vacations, but your comment sounded one-sided and not very objective. An inclusive statement, argument, or complaint would have included examples from both political parties - because presidents take vacations regardless of their party.

Chronocide, I'm one of those tea party, bible thumpin', gun toting raacists that the left likes to call us and I thank God Dick Cheney was in there to advise Bush. But your post was funny as hell.

I cannot believe one thing that lying scumbag has to say. Why is he still alive? He should have been hung for war crimes.

What is wrong with you people. First you know only what the bias media had to say without looking at the facts. For one you never met him & second what right do you have to hate him. IF you want to call someone a war criminal look at BO he is in 3 wars and has esculated the war in Afganistan. He lied during his campaign using his words I will bring home our troops, close Gitmo, and end the war. Also, for Bush he gave up golf for the troops. He is still making time for the troops & supporting those wounded in action. BO has the record of the most spent & traveled. His wife can't seem to wait for him so instead of going on airforce one she heads out on her own jet. Also, the use of limos are up by 70%. What happen to all the environmentalists that attacked Bush. Yet, BO carbon footprint goes well beyond his in every aspect of his presidency. BO signed ceiling hike & when GW was in office it was failure of leadership. Yet, BO signed the last ceiling raise and in one month spent more then 10 yrs in Iraq. Why are you beholden to a party or individual that is putting this country in the hole.

There is so much wrong with your less than astute observations I do not know where to start. Turn off Fox News and check your facts.

straitlaced:

The truth indeed. Thanks for you most poignant comments---they are so afraid Cheney is that Powerful a figure, they are using school yard tactics, and words to get themselves out of the English language and not make a statement of substance re: Cheney.

They have NOTHING to say---it is that obvious.

what right do you have to hate him.

Along with the rest of the GOP, he flushed my hopes of a financially worry-free retirement down the toilet.

Most in here only watch the lame stream media. They are all burnt out from doing nothing so they are all up in arms on what they don't have under Dumbama which would be leadership. Liberals only know how to attack when they don't get their way. They have noclue that there is anotherside of the coin. They don't bring anything to the table to talk about so all they can do is rant like little kids. I will be buying his book. I will love to find out what he has to say. I bet a whole lotta Dumbazzcraps will be vacationing real soon.

Commonsense

Don't you meen Government Funded work-free retirement? Hows that Hope in Chains working for ya?

cheney is a dick head

With ears, yet!

Considering how most of your right wingers are in the closet I bet you would!

Fool you once, shame on him. Fool you twice, you're an idiot.

Yes, I'm sure you miss the good old days...

Good for you, OmustGo!

You're obviously a big fan of teabagging and exploding Dick heads. Now that's the kind of pride we, as Americans, love to see of our fellow citizens.

OmustGo

We'd love for you to have him back. Maybe he'd load your mouth full of buckshot! At least then something useful would be coming out of it!

Criminal who is still on the Haliburton's payroll...

Keep telling yourself those little stores, simpleton. Funny how the color Red represents Republicans, yet you try to use it here as some sort of insult.

Another example of right-wing logic using your party's own native language - hypocrisy.

omustgo,

You are dillusional if you think any Democrat or Independent will vote for Perry. Some Republicans won't. That makes his odds of being President very low my friend. A man who is "Fed Up" and wants to "Secede" does not love his country and should not be allowed to even run for the Presidency as far as I'm concerned. But hay! Easy win for Obama if Perry becomes the Republican's choice.

Got that one right. I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of spending ONE nickle on his ugly book. He is an ugly man, who cost thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of human lives based on a lie. I curse the day his mother ever gave birth to that rancid puke. Thank him for the utter MESS this country is in. And now Rick Perry??? Is there any end to the putrid, disgusting, cruel and inhumane candidates the Republican party jerks can think up to cast a stench on what was once a great country!

OmustGo: The arrogant overconfidence you express here over and over again parallels that of your delusional tea party. I cannot begin to express how sweet it will be when our President is elected to four more years.

It will happen, rest assured, and you'll be left analyzing what went wrong with your Tea-Bagging-Exploding-Dick-Head party. But you won't be able to figure out what went wrong, because you are severely Ivy-League challenged, so you'll just continue babbling to yourselves until you finally devolve back into the back-grooming flea-snacking primates you really are.

No offense.

Dick Cheney probably can not go to some countries for fear of being arrested and tried for war crimes

None of the right could even read their own memo...it said hide, not snide.

After their last fiasco that didn't even bother them one bit, they are still out there pretending they know what they are talking about.

Cheney will probably come closer to telling the truth in his book than many here have.

Hey tom343, I bet you he doesn't tell the "Real Truth" about 9-11. The sad part about the whole Bush Regime is, just think if those thugs were "NOT" on our sides(I still have my doubts that they were)..... now that is some scary a$$ sh!t.

If anyone has the power to explode heads, it would be Cheney.

I would say Cheney is what's wrong with the human race. I can easily see him wearing an SS uniform while someone is tortured under his supervision. Actually we know what he'd be wearing, a suit.

Natalie Rosen

Is there any end to the putrid, disgusting, cruel and inhumane candidates the Republican party jerks can think up to cast a stench on what was once a great country!

The answer to your question, Natalie is - NO.

"Head exploding" Wait! Didn't you already try that with a "friend" in Wyoming? Go back to your "undisclosed" location and shut up.

Natalie Rosen, what a venomous negative post.

Awesome!

We should all be as pissed off as you are. Don't go changin'.

Stoops2Conquer

You forgot to take your meds.

Turnip truck on the way.

@ Stoops2Conquer and Rene278, just a little fyi for ya, 19 of the 20 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia, the 20th from Afghanistan, not one of these terrorists had any thing to do with Iraq. The bush regime used any excuse it could think of, including the scary WMD's (which never existed and the whole knows it) to invade, capture and kill Saddam Hussien. If you are truly that delusional to believe that they "Saved" America with their [valiant and loyal efforts to protect America] you are most definitely in dream land. It will forever remain a reality that your current President is the one who gave the final orders to take out the so called true master mind behind 9-11.

Thank you, Stoops2Conquer. Despite the fact that both GWB and Obama were faced with wars, many liberals will blame GWB for the war during his presidency, while blaming "the circumstances" (and GWB as well) for the war (and every other catastrophe) during Obama's administration. Now, Obama is our president, and I respect that, but come on. This country has been going to the crapper in more ways (and faster) than it was during previous administrations (Dem/Repub presidents alike). He had his chance (or his fun, depending on your perspective), and next year it will be time for a different person, preferably of the opposing party, to try his luck at improving this great nation (or destroying it further).

On a slightly different note, since it is blatantly obvious that political correctness, "Kool-Aid" and rhetoric, and endless quibbling between the parties have all replaced honesty and care for the American people in politics, vote all incumbents out! Limit each and every federal politician to one term, unless s/he is voted to a second term by a ridiculously vast majority. And stop paying them after they've left office! It's time we put some real patriots and problem solvers in office, not the money-hungry, power-hungry, careless criminals that are currently sitting at their thrones in Washington.

AudiR8: ...vote all incumbents out! Limit each and every federal politician to one term...

We tried that. It was called the Tea Party.

ah, Cheney. even out of office you're still trying to kill people.

*rim shot* ... and thank you and goodnight.

Priceless comment, nothing more to say after that. Bravo.

Who runs Newsvine? Am I the only one noticing that the collapsed comments are always the one supporting those the Dems and Libs hate or those criticizing their Messiah?

Impartial moderators should be the ones to collapse or delete; if community members don't like it, find a valid argument or ignore it. How long before freedom of speech, is legally curtailed?

Stoops2Conquer

Quite amazing actually. That there are soooo many people out there who get down right hot and bothered about Dick Cheney, yet speak kindly and sweetly of our current Commander in Chief as though he actually was ever qualified to even run – much less win - his current job.

Stoops, regardless of how you feel about Obama - compared to the hysterical, "We will destroy America" Right Wing presidential candidates (Bachmann, Perry, Cain, Gingrich, etc.) that are currently running - Obama is the cream of the crop!

When I, as "community", report someone it is for "inflammatory" as in profane language. Guess you had to be here ( I wasn't) but it has to be very bad for a poster to be collapsed by the community. Community being the rest of us. If Newsvine collapses it that means that the poster did not stay within the definition of being civil. Rene, if you don't like it, stay away. Simple. The rules are : keep it civil.

My post was civil and I used no profanity. I did the same as many others who are collapsed for no valid reason... I gave a favorable opinion supporting GW's decision.

Rene278....you will find that on this forum there are many who feel empowered by shutting down those opinions they don't like. It is the only way they will ever be empowered. It truly is very sad.

Dick Cheney and President Bush were faced with the single most violent and murderous act against the homeland of America since WWII. For all they knew, the next shoe to drop was going to be the detonation of a Russian nuclear weapon – stolen from unsecured stockpiles - and yet we have the bleeding heart – politically correct – and mindless among us out there denigrating their valiant and loyal efforts to protect America.

THANK YOU!!! We were attacked. The POTUS issued an ultimatum: turn the rest of them over within a set amount of time or go to war. When his ultimatum was not met Bush stuck to his word. What do the detractors think would have happened if he had just let it slide? That would have been declaring open season for terrorists to continue attacks on us.

Personally...I agree with you and will speak out for your right to calmly and reasonably state your point of view... God Bless America.

Bush and Cheney ignored the threat and then when we were attacked, went after the wrong country. I don't know how much more stupid you can get. I am one little woman from California and I KNEW THERE WERE NO WMD'S!!!

How did I know? Did I have some great oracle into inner Iraq?

No. I could tell Bush & Cheney were lying. I knew Bush was going to start a war. It didn't surprise me at all that he attacked the wrong country. He did it for personal gain and not for any other reason. Not even that "Saddam tried to kill my Dad" crap. 4800 of our decent kids died because this pig wanted to yell "Yee Haw" and try to show everyone what a big set of balls he has. If you lost a child in Iraq you should be FURIOUS!!! You should be demanding a trial for crimes against humanity and storming Washington every minute until you get it. Those two pigs and the rest of the Republican pigpen deserve a traitors fate.

...and shame on you idots who want to vote in another one!

If Rick Perry is elected we are doomed. This country will be in the toilet.

Mark my words, people.

Perhaps the Bush and Cheney backers on this thread may want to reflect on "what if". Consider what the outcome in Afghanistan may have been if there was not a second war in Iraq. Consider over all the lives that could have been saved. Think of the slippery slope the US is now in politically, in regards to international relations and of course financially. A lot of this boars down to Cheney and Bush committing to a bull s hit war. Their is no doubt in my mind that Afghanistan was the right decision and Iraq was of either Cheney's or Bush's (or both) manipulation.

Repubics do not value human lives!!!

Repubics do not value human lives!!!

And the rest of you do? You are all screaming for the heads of those who oppose your ideologies, so none of us are better than the other.

Let's all just enjoy it while we can... if there isn't a major change in 2012 we won't be able to speak our opinions anyway.

well from 2001 until w was removed, most of us could not speak out loud what we were thinking because all of YOU were making us out to be anti American and not patriotic. And you guys are vocal as heck now , so what is YOUR problem?

My comment was concerning the entire population, although every attempt will be made to silence detractors first. By the time the supporters wake up and realize what they have helped do, it will be illegal to protest.

most of us could not speak out loud what we were thinking because all of YOU were making us out to be anti American and not patriotic

That was public opinion; you were still legally entitled to speak your mind. If things continue on the current path, none of us will be allowed that.

4 more years....now this is a funny implication...

well from 2001 until w was removed,

Maybe you didn't get the memo but GWB was not actually "removed". He had successfully completed two terms as the President of the United States.

As for:

most of us could not speak out loud what we were thinking because all of YOU were making us out to be anti American and not patriotic.

So when did a perception of being "Patriotic", "not Patriotic", having an Opinion in any way ever silence a Liberal? Even with a place for a free and fair exchange of ideas those on the far left and to be fair far right...seem to both relish the ability to click the exclamation point and silence a voice. To me that is ever so much more not Patriotic than being able to express an opinion without malice or offense.

And you guys are vocal as heck now , so what is YOUR problem?

Personally, I disagree with the direction this President has taken our Nation. As our Constitution is in place I have every right as a Citizen to speak my mind as do you now as well as through the prior administration.

Rene

It was Cheney that announced anyone who opposed the administration's actions after the 911 attacks would be considered traitors. Ironic that a man who manipulated the laws, manipulated intelligence, secured a subsequent election via fear mongering would declare anyone opposing the administration a traitor. I believe if it were up to Cheney, no one would be able to speak their minds.

soo who is the one silencing the right ? who is going t o do that and how?

Nobody... yet. That's the point. Judging from your impeccable grasp and use of the English language, I find it amazing you have been unable to understand.

Poor, poor Rene - a typical teabagging reich-winger playing the victim ... coward.

I have never been a victim of anything in my life. And if stating my opinion makes me a coward, I am far from alone.

Our current government is leading us down a road that will eventually take our freedom. Their concern is power, and if they have to sacrifice this country to get it, they will.

American government is WE the people

the world is a mess and always will be a mess

our job is to straighten out our own lives

While you may not have been a physical victim, Rene, you sure are playing the victim here. No one says you can't have an opinion, but when the opinion is nothing more than paranoid rantings about what you "perceive", as opposed to what is "reality", then you should be ridiculed.

Do tell, wee Rene, what "freedoms" is the current government seeking to take away from your trembling, little hands?

Pure fiction!

Yep! Maybe he'll tell us where the WMD are finally at!

Revisionist history, alternative history.....

^DIck? Is that you?

Well, Black.Knight, unless Cheney is going to come clean with his war crimes, I see this book as supporting his alternative historical account.

It's called self incrimination.

Pulp fiction.

GW Shrub only took 10 years to revise the 911 incident from the Kindergarten class.

"Now, there are some who would like to rewrite history——revisionist historians is what I like to call them." ——George W. Bush, Elizabeth, N.J.,

Dude, even though this guy is totally evil, I'll probably end up reading the book. It'll be interesting and probably worth while to read. Didn't anyone have to read Mein Kampf in high school?

Dude, did you just graduate High School? Whether the answer is yes or no is irrelevant because your comment is the only intellectual one I have read so far on this blog.

You are right, reading any book is mind expanding, let alone a book written by one of the most high-profile figures in the 21st Century - so far.

But, don't put money into his hands. If you want to read, borrow the book.

I guess I was just typing the way I usually speak. Didn't realize that I'd be so sharply scrutinized based on diction. That said, I agree with the rest of your post.

You can fool some of the people some of the time,.... but you cant fool all of the people all of the time.

tom111. YOUR reality - is what is fiction. Please see my post above. As Napoleon Hill, in his classic book Think and Grow Rich said, "There is nothing that can be done about a lack of intelligence." - or a lack of desire to face reality.

Thje ONLY reason I would read the Dick's book would be to practice my bull@!$%# detection. Hasn't he made enough money off The American public with his lies and deceit? I will never forgive him for the crimes he has commited against the USA and the world.

Absolutely, he has definite sociopath tendencies...

Yeah,he is just trying to catch up with Al the Gorical.The Gorical and his multi-miilion dollar mansion bought in the flood zone once those oceans start rising from all his hot air.You know,the dangerous gas he exhales and all the carbon he is blowing all around the planet in his private jet.

He could write the book on Sociopaths.

He had to work with too many of those sociopathic dems while in Washington.I agree,he could write quite a book.

Black.Knight-48: Funny the only ones who hate appear to be democrats.

Dignity and Dick Cheney don't belong in the same sentence...

neither does 'honor' and 'dick cheney'

I guess that's why we call you jar-heads.

I wonder how many lives Obama is responsible for after ramping up things in Afghanistan and getting in on the fiasco in Syria? I don't think those drones are digging wells..

he doesnt have any dignity ..

First off, we sent drones and advisers to Libya, not Syria Aggie. And the funny thing is, you mention Afghanistan, which is where we should have focused on in the first damn place. Bushy Jr. wanted Daddy's approval so bad that he figured he would invade a country with no real chance of fighting back. Whether you like it or not, Obama gave the orders in Afghanistan that took out the supposed person of interest in 9-11. Neither Bush, nor Dick 'Head' Cheney accomplished that with all of their pathetic Haliburton Thugs or their BlackWater teams. Those are facts, and sadly, they almost destroyed this Great Nation, and the rest of the damn world right along with it.

wait until some of his rich friends go and buy some thousands to

• give away during the TEABAGGERS MEETINGS ( attendance would GUARANTEE ONE FREE BOOK, you watch ).

Then like Limbaugh, Palin, Ann Colter would be claiming to be BEST SELLERS.

_____________________________________________________________

Hell, all of them are BEST SELLERS because THEIR BOOKS ARE FREE....lol....

bush wanted to play war games like a little child.

Bryan. Yes, I caught that after it was too late to correct it. I did mean Libya but typed Syria.

Obama and the military got very valuable information from the previous work of G. Bush. Obama was in very close contact with him up to and including the "go" decision was made. Bush was very much involved in the hunt and discovery of OBL.

Bush did not go into Iraq on his own. He had the approval of Congress, and even one of the rare times Obama actually voted, he voted "yes". All having seen and heard the same intelligence that Bush was supplied. All fully aware of Hussien's refusal to cooperate with inspections. He had the approval of the U.N. And the U.S. was not the only country that participated in the war in Iraq. You all call Bush a liar because he wasn't given accurate information, yet Obama the other day announced that Tripoli was taken and was under control of the rebels....then it was learned that was not accurate information...Obama was "mislead". Bush was called a liar. And BOTH relied on inaccurate information.

Hindsight does say that we should have gone into Afghanistan sooner, but the intelligence said that Hussien was pursuing nuclear weapons, and a grave threat to the entire world. Afghanistan was not completely ignored.

Obama, the apologizer, big spender, divider is doing a pretty good job of destroying this Great Nation himself.

That`s the same way I feel about Obama. Leave now please, you have done enough damage.

Bush was very much involved in the hunt and discovery of OBL.

Bush did not go into Iraq on his own. He had the approval of Congress

All having seen and heard the same intelligence that Bush was supplied.

He had the approval of the U.N.

And the U.S. was not the only country that participated in the war in Iraq

intelligence said that Hussien was pursuing nuclear weapons,

Soo many delusions in soo little of a space.

NOPE! Bush was told by his ambassador to Iraq, who Hussein allowed to tour all his palaces, secret bunkers, etc., that Hussein didn't have WMDs, nor could acquire them, so the ambassador relayed this to Bush, who in the face of truth that deviated from his scheme of invading Iraq, exposed the Iraq Ambassador's wife's CIA identity, making every assassin in the world now aware of who she was, and Bush+Cheney went ahead and attacked Iraq anyway, on their own delusions of WMDs there!

@bryan-2876208 : You sound like you are in the military. If you are, it puts this girl at ease a little bit. I loved your comments. It seems like you have a good head on your shoulders.

@Aggie-345886 : Do you really think the Bush admin. made public ALL of the intelligence they had? I am extremely doubtful, mostly due to their track record regarding ethics and their aversion to political transparency.

Obama was in very close contact with him up to and including the "go" decision was made. Bush was very much involved in the hunt and discovery of OBL.

Sources, please.

Yeah, I didn't think so. Another Seminar Troller spewing talking points. You people are pathetic.

Oh, calm down everyone. I'm pretty sure we'll be reading about Obama's war and other crimes in 4 years, and in 8 years, we'll read about the crimes of our next president, and in 12 or 16 years, we'll read about the crimes of the following president....

They all suck. Vote out the incumbents, always. One term for everyone.

tom343

I guess that's why we call you jar-heads.

Accounting for the content of this article, then that makes you a... ?

That's not nice, I'm no fan either but I don't wish the guy ill will. His punishment is that he has to live with himself...

"His punishment is that he has to live with himself..."

It's only punishment if you have a conscience but I believe you have to have a heart to have a conscience.

"OmustGo" Are you a relative of Dick Cheney or something??? I guess we should build him a monument too...

Cheney is obviously one tough SOB, which I think we needed (and still need).

I don't think you achieve what he did without being very smart. If he truly was dirty his enemies would have crucified him long before now. (Unless his enemies are complete morons, which I also doubt)

Washington is too tough an environment for those with skeletons in their closet to survive long.

el gran poste - how long have you been in this country? Cheney was one tough SOB, alright (seen him now? I think Karma is smashing in to him).

During his reign, he surrounded himself with all his PNAC friends who, literally, took over the country and ran it to their liking. Behind closed doors deals with energy companies forming our energy policy; invading countries that had nothing to do with 9/11 so that his Halliburton friends (and his stock) could benefit, the guy is a slug and a war criminal.

He doesn't have skeletons in his closet - we all know what he and his group did. Unfortunately, America doesn't have the fortitude to go after a former President and VP for war crimes. My only regret is that the countries who wanted him (I believe Spain was one) didn't subject both of them for rendition!

"Cheney is obviously one tough SOB"

Except when it came to the draft (5 deferments (4 as a student flunking at Yale) yet he dared challenge Kerry's patriotism & honor). And not so tough criticizing deficits when he was at the helm. And not so tough when in a position ot influence changes about same sex marrage rights). Is he "obviously a tough SOB" or just a SOB?

Careful, Jacques: Some lawyer who failed college Logic but still managed a law degree might interpret that as a threat.

"The only thing I want to read about this sociopath is his eventual obituary."

Yeah, and any article written about him apparently.

I'll agree that Cheney is an SOB, but I don't care how much he snarled and grimaced, you're not "tough" when you callously take risks with the lives of other people's sons and daughters. You're not tough when you expose one of our own CIA officers for the sake of a petty political vendetta. And it made me sick to see this draft-dodger trash the record of John Kerry, someone who actually served, and then portray himself as someone who "supports our troops."

Cheney, a lot of us real Americans consider you one of the greatest enemies of America in history. Go crawl back under a rock where you belong and have the decency to STFU!

One day you will look back and wish there were still men with brawn like Dick Cheney. He told it like it was, and just like most liberals , you probably still live in Disneyland and can't cope with truth or facts. If Government stopped lying to all of us and had the nards to tell the truth, it would be a miracle! Keep drinking the kool-aid and think they care, but they really don't. And 21st century, John Kerry and his wife are nothing but wanna be's. He was the guy who lied about most of his service, and she had the nerve to tell us to keep Factories here while she has 2 here and 18 in Europe! Can't stand the heat? Get out of the fire. I would rather someone tell me the truth, even if it is bad than make it look like Disneyworld, and nothing is wrong. It's called reality?

Always so nice to see the liberals showing their true nature of hate, intolerance and lack of compassion for other human beings. The hypocrisy of what they preach contrasted to how they naturally act is a good lesson for all to know and remember.

John, you know you might actually get out and speak to people who lean a little more left than Antonin Scalia, treat them as human beings and find out their thoughts on issues, rather than assigning a label 'liberals' and dismissing anything said by them...

I think you're probably an ignorant @!$%#, but I'd be happy for you to sit down and discuss what you think is wrong with the country, why you think it's wrong, how it got to that state, and what you think it will take to fix it...but if the best you can do is just toss out labels like epithets, then you really don't have much to contribute to the conversation, do you?

Despite what you and others of your ilk like to think, we 'liberals' live in the real world, not some fantasy 1950s sitcom, thinking it was the golden age...we work, many of us volunteer our time to others less fortunate because they need help, not because we need to indoctrinate them into our religion, we have children that we raise and educate (they're actually better independent and creative thinkers than those raised in a hate-filled rigid environment), and we pay our friggin taxes
WE don't glorify money over human beings, pseudo patriotism over accountability by our elected officials...we believe that healthcare, basic preventative healthcare, should be a fundamental right of ALL human beings, not just the wealthy and congress...but you try paying cash for a doctor visit or a hospital visit...lol good luck with that...

That's not nice, I'm no fan either but I don't wish the guy ill will. His punishment is that he has to live with himself...

No sense no feeling.

Your liberal point of view defines you. When you grow older you will become wiser.

Just because you don't like somebody politically doesn't mean that they deserve to die. That's a human life. I vehemently disagree with Dick Cheney's ideologies on pretty much every subject, but to wish death on someone is pretty terrible.

I don't know, caseyjane, he really was one bad dude.........

Of course, you don't have to take my word for it......just go ask some of the parents in the ME who's children had their heads exploded apart from one of our 'surgical' strikes......

I do not disagree with Cheney's ideology. No, no....it's MUCH more than that! I disagree with everything the man stands for, and I don't make statements like that lightly.....

I say, let's turn this dispicable war criminal over to the Iraqi people and see just how much they truly regard us as "liberators". Something tells me his last horrid breath on this earth would not be long..........

@Mav, I have met two family members of one of the most evil veeps America has ever known, and they both had much less than nice things to say about this goon. One in particular was so very upset that he even had to share the same last name with this thug, that he told me that he even considered changing the spelling of his last name. That said a whole lot to me.

el gran poste

If he truly was dirty his enemies would have crucified him long before now.

Unfortunately, the power structure protects people like him.

Ahhh...and I thought it was the right that was so vitriolic and uncivil in their discourse. Reading this let's everyone know the truth. When liberals run out of facts and reality they turn to mean spirited, hateful rhetoric wishing the demise of anyone who oppose them. Thank you NBC for pointing out the true nature of your followers. Keep providing these forums for civility to go completely out the window.

I guess I just belong to the "two deaths don't make a life" camp.

Your liberal point of view defines you.

When you grow older you will become wiser.

Not if your on the right, they still believe in slavery.

Dennis-3176059

Always so nice to see the liberals showing their true nature of hate, intolerance and lack of compassion for other human beings.

So you do know Cheney.

Sorry to break this to you caseyjane, everyone dies. It has nothing to do with whether or not they deserve to, it is just a plain and simple fact. It doesn't matter if you or one of the other people posting on here or I, wish he would die, because ultimately he will. I, like some of the others here, hope it is sooner than later. Doesn't matter, because ultimately he will die. Perhaps someone will mourn him, perhaps you, I won't and many others won't, but he still will die. It is just a plain and simple fact.

Just because you don't like somebody politically doesn't mean that they deserve to die. That's a human life.

Actually he isn’t human, .....toad perhaps, Darth Vader close, plain useless piece of Chit, definitely.

Draw and quarter him now as pay back for all he has murdered.

Agree to disagree, I guess. I'm pretty against the death penalty, so I think it'd be pretty hypocritical for me to want somebody dead because they remind me of Darth Vader.

Im 100% against the death penalty.

However,...I want public drawing and quartering for this scum.

He is not human, he reminds me more of Josef Mengele.

You're obviously not 100% against the death penalty.

One day you will look back and wish there were still men with brawn like Dick Cheney.

Yeah, right. And there are still Germans (not many) who wish Hitler was still in charge.

"Torture and murder are unacceptable," say the liberals who "can't wait to read Cheney's obituary." How about you read the book and then make comments (snide or praising) about it? Hypocrites.

Mav-3674058

That's not nice, I'm no fan either but I don't wish the guy ill will. His punishment is that he has to live with himself...

And it's to our country's shame that he can.

Don't worry Faux News will make a movie out of it...

And promote the hell out of it.

Keep it coming,O.They just can't take take the heat.

Vilify it because they can knock holes through the thing - it will look like Cheney's friends' face after the dufus shot him!

Reading this book will be worse than havig a waterboarding treatment

Since others brought it up I just have to comment on MSNBC which is about the slowest loading news site I visit. There are WAY too many ads and one ad server running slow can almost stop a page from loading. CNN and others load so much faster. You'd think Microsoft would want this site to be an example of their technology. I even tested it on Internet Exploder and a Windows machine and it didn't load much faster. And yes I have fast broadband.

He saved your ass and you are still bitching about it. Just like an "entitlement" bloodsucker to attack those that provide your welfare.

Cheney is a mass murderer and a traitor to his country.

BS marinmom, but what else does one expect from a Calif. lib?

Exactly! The man was shut out for much of his term. How much could he tell? What the wallpaper looked like at that undisclosed location. Haliburton outed him as the crook he was. Go back under your rock Cheney.

I hope he doesn't decide to waterboard the same heads he claims will explode!

How about Mars!

I'm curious, Tammy, how did Haliburton out him?

We can have him read his own book, and have his own head explode with it

Most of this stuff is grousing by voluntary losers.

tom: Such as yourself....

Bush and Cheney were flawless men and great leaders. I know that because I watch Fox News all the time.

bckrd1 wins for comment of the century! And can we watch.

exactamundo!

Cheney set the liberal wusses on their asses. He didn't give a damn about your stupid lib ideas, and he told you so. Most of us are glad that the a--hole muslim was waterboarded, the information saved a lot of american lives. Only aliberal idiot would think otherwise.

Only a rabid and ridiculous Reich-winging teabagger would think waterboarding saved a lot of American lives.

This isn't "24", boy ...

It saved a lot of lives, no matter how rabid and ridiculous you wish to be. Even Oblama believes that.

He's still mad that GWB threw the guy under the bus where he belonged...

Probably one reason why Bush won't be too pleased about this book. That, and the fact that when Cheney said "jump," Bush said "how high?"

I doubt very much that Bush will read the book unless it's published in comic book format.

me4texas represents the level of discourse shown by most here. Life is not SNL.

Tom343, your own comments in this forum have not exactly been modest nor sophisticated, either! Don't condemn others for their posts. And how can you, or anyone else, possibly condone the actions of this vile human being??? Have you no conscience??

Satan!? You lefties arent supposed to be religious. And you all claim to be the "tolerant" ones among us. Why all the hate and intolerance? Ill say one thing. You dont know what you think you know. Do some research on your party's history and you may begin to see that you've all been lied to. And our mass media and education system are to blame for that lie.

The Christian Left

http://www.facebook.com/TheChristianLeft

Do you tolerate evil??

We tolerate obama. That is toleration of pure evil.

Why do you think that "lefties" are not religious? We just do not believe that religion should run a country, hence, the ME. We believe that our right to worship the God we want to and the way we do it should be our business. (Does the word "Mayflower" mean anything to you.) And, because the TeaParty/Republicans would like to push their beliefs down our throats, I will never vote for one.

GWB has his own fiction book already out there...

Well, neither book will be classified as: Science Fiction, as both don't believe in science or anything logical.

Sure wish we had GWB back now after these past two and a half years. Like him or not, he was a very honest man who did what he thought was best for this country without asking for anything in return....pretty unusual for a modern day politician.

gmk, you have to be kidding. Bush honest? You sure are gullible. What rock did you just crawl out of?

Oh, GMK, that made me laugh so hard juice shot out my nose...

gmk, I couldn't agree more. Most of the hate mongering on here is people just regurgitating what they've heard from someone else and they have no idea what they are saying. He was vile and evil, helped bring this country down, etc. etc. He dedicated his life to the service of this country. Is he without sin? No, who in Washington is? But he does not deserve the vile spew coming from the oh so tolerant left, either. A sorry lot, that.

Ken, George W. Bush dedicated his life to the service of himself, not this country. It's sad that you never saw that or see the fruits of his labor. He is and will always be a self-serving, egomaniacle front man to an even more egomaniacle deviant, Cheney.

I thought he was dedicated to clearing brush and getting even with Sadaam and Clinton.

Unlike Obama, Bush and Cheney deserve the hate.

Stupid narcissistic republicans can never admit they were wrong.

True - very misguided...

phhhht he was a self serving idiot.

Advocating torture of America's enemies, which not even our grandfathers did to Nazis and Commies, is the currency of those with absolutely no integrity. His patriotism is the moral expression of a rat fink.

With devotion like his, who needs enemies?

"Say what you will, but this guy devoted his life to his country"

He wouldn't & didn't fight for it when called upon but had the audacity to criticize those who served with honor. He's a chicken-hawk hypocrite who lined his pockets on the military industrial complex.....course back then he insisted "deficits don't matter".

He didn't devote his life to this Country. He devoted his life to Haliburton and the United States be damned.

Hopefully the International Criminal Court investigators will take notice and read this "book". Better yet I'll send them one.

He and Bush were cowards, sending all those soldiers to seek business for Cheney and a personal revenge for Bush..What service are you talking about? The war in Iraq will always be the laughing stock of this country.

This man served his own need for greed and power,He is a wealthy looser of a human.

IRESPOND-2315268,

You are indeed factually challenged. GWB stuck to his plan, when all the liberal talking heads said the war was unwinnable or lost, and went ahead with the surge. GWB left BHO a pretty much won war in Iraq. It looks like BHO is trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by announcing timetables for withdrawal instead of staying the course. Of course, BHO has the inverse Midas touch--everything he touches turns to crap.

Adolf Hitler devoted his life to his country.

Cheney devoted his life to raping the citizens of this country and accruing more wealth on the backs of the taxpayers. I really think he is evil and will pay for what he has done. Truly believe he is a sociapath and his only loyalty is to himself. As for the comment about Bush sticking to his plan, he probably did but this country didn't know what it was and certainly never saw any benefit from whatever he did. Politican=liar without conscience. I'm all for cleaning house. (and senate) They all need to go, republicans and democrats, and maybe when we get enough real public servants in Washington, we will have a chance. I thank God that I'm a senior and hopefully wont live to see the total collapse of my country.

"gwininator", you speak well for me. Yet by The God In Which We Trust, as I get old, I will not let "piss ants" steal the American Dream from me. If 6000 of our finest young people must die, I will at least speak up.

And by The God In Which We Trust, my rifle is cocked, primed, and ready!!!

"Luke, I'm your father!"...

"The force is strong with this one. Don't give in to the dark side..."

Oops. Too late.

The scary part is they don't give a damn how history will judge them...

Scary part is they won't be held accountable. Consequently....it WILL happen again.

Shelby you are exactly right and that makes me fearful...

Hold it 4trucks - how do you know that Garcia is a wetback? Just because he has a Spanish surname? Don't let your racism get in the way of your thinking! 4-trucks = Redneck, maybe?

But then again, I shouldn't sink to your level.

4trucks I guess what you are saying is that we need more weak sucks like yourself to set us straight on what is really going on?? The same way that you are tired of what people like Garcia may have to say, well you know something, I'm pretty tired of having to hear what a clown like you has to say as well. Go have some grits and eggs for lunch and I'm sure you'll feel better before you go calling on your pet goat.

4trucks: redneck idiot

Enron/Halliburton 1984

Unfortunately for us all, history is written by such as attack here. It is as slanted as CNN or MSNBC. Or, I give you, FOX.

F*** fox !!!!!

You are utterly pathetic. You like to enjoy the freedoms you do have without doing what it takes to keep our country free. Forget American lives lost, forget the troops who make it possible - so long as you appear (merely appear) civilized and dignified as the enemy spits in your faces. The world is not rainbows and flowers like you ignorant liberals still consider it to be from your hippie roots and VW Vans. You sound like the foolish student protestors from the '60's. As a military Veteran, I KNOW waterboarding does NOT put troops in harms way. My info is experiential while your "theory" is just that- an untested assumption. You make our nation weak....and our military to look like foolish cowards. Sorry libs.... some of us stand strong.

Well, tough guy, get your punk-ass back in the military and protect all us ignorant, hippie-root liberals ...

Is cowardice and baffoonery inherent to your nature or is this something new for you, punk?

Sally,will you spank me? I've been a bad boy.

Too late. He's already drawing a pension/healthcare for life that we taxpayers are footing the bill for. And with his bad ticker, i'm sure those are some stiff medical bills.

Like the greedy bastards needs it, I thought the republicans were against entitlements. Oh wait it is OK if your make the rules and rich.

Ayn rand was a dishonest parasite leech monster on SS and Medicare.

These posts all look like hate-filled, pus infested, Marxist vomit. Shame on you vile liberals. You are the most poisonous tics on the planet. I am sure you are the same idiots that voted for Odumma. You deserve to be unemployed and I would bet you are all on welfare and public assistance. You are truly fine examples of what Marxist propoganda does to the human soul. I guess the next thing you will call for is Cheney's public disembowelment to sate your empty, black souls. You are the enemy within.

Former Union Guy...seriously. I haven't seen one single Marxist comment, and the only ones mentioning socialism are the other anti-Obama trolls. Your post was more "hate-filled" and "pus infected" than most I've seen today, but I'm sure you're too busy patting yourself on the back for your oh-so-yawn-inducing "zingers" to notice the irony of your sophomoric statement.

The mental giants of the rabid and ridiculous Reich-winging teabagger party wouldn't know the definitions of "socialist", "Marxist", or "fascist" if each up and bite them in their cowardly hind quarters ...

Those same TeaBaggers would be surprised that we set-up the socialist governments of Japan and Germany after WW2. How many would say today that they have stronger economies than ours, the USA?

Former union guy

No you and your friends neocons ARE the ennemy within and very dangerous ones !

You have no clue what marxism or fascism means ! Neocons are the perfect example of fascists !

Former union guy: You had better believe it. Lock your doors. Stockpile your food, water and ammo. And above all, be afraid.

Because you know that it is a certainty that the fascist, socialist, communist, nazi neocons are indeed out to get you, and there's not a shadow of a doubt that you will lose this social battle quickly and decisively. With world history's most powerful ists and isms on our side, you cannot possibly defeat us.

Be very afraid. The world is ours! Muhahahahaha!

R R - well case closed

Maybe Sara Palins fans can rewrite history to fit Cheney's lies as well....who knows.

Sara is a dimwit egotistical JOKE

You must be a compassionate liberal.

In the words of Xander Cage, " Stop being such a dick Dick".

It was so piggishly insensitive of him to use that terminology considering what he did to the children of Iraq.

formerunionguy, I've read some of your posts... sarcastic, or irony? Though you are not compassionate, nor liberal, what a shame if you have children. Get a vasectomy!

There is no end to his greed and arrogance. Hence he has a book. He should be in jail.

Everyone with a dime more than you is greedy and arrogant, it seems. He should have been president rather than Bush, I believe. Either one of them makes the incompetent ass in the White House now, look like Erkel.

He should have been president rather than Bush, I believe.

What makes you think he wasn't? Do you really think the Crawford Village Idiot was in charge? The whole 8 years reeked of Cold War has-beens trying to find a new enemy, while ignoring all the warnings that would have enabled them to prevent the 9/11 disaster. What the Hell, maybe now the Unocal Pipeline project can finally become reality.

Cheney reminds me of Slim Pickins as Major Kong, riding the missile to Armageddon in Dr. Strangelove.

@ Dasvet - Erkel was not evil. Obama is.

Excellent point, Rod ! Ole NitroWV can't stomach a man who left no pretense where he stood on the issues. But that is the liberal DNA, I suppose. The dunce in the White House is a good example of that lib DNA.

Wasnt he an Enron crook too ? My dad lost his retirement there

You're scaring me Teddog...

Well now go and use his book for toilet paper, because that might be the only good thing that Cheney ever did for you

Wow, we got a war monger, thanks to you. You must have held a lot of Halliburton stock when he got elected; you're probably making a fortune with it still, and haven't lost a member of your friends or your family in Iraq.

Thanks a lot, Teddog.

Teddog, you must be a paid poster for the GOP. No one could be that stupid.

With nearly 4000 comments in this thread already, looks like Left Wing heads have already exploded!. But no trace of brace tissue!

Wishful thinking, Tinkle. I find it amusing that most comments against Cheney relate to his armchair general-status, and his being a coward. And, if you'll notice, at least half of the comments are from "brace" surgeons like you who idolize cowardly POS's like McFlightsuit and his dark overlord Dick ...

Time to take down the Kiefer Sutherland poster ... "24" is long gone "tough" guy ...

So you love Nazis to ?

Ted Dog : Is the Cheney posing as a blogger?

Bill,

I agree, but ungrateful to his former boss...thus not necessarily a "good guy."
