Margaret, I am here to tell you that Dick Cheney is a bitch – a big one too. I mean I thought that Sarah Palin was a bitch, but even she can’t hold a candle to this guy. Have you been listening to him recently?
I would say that it takes some pretty big balls to go on national television again and again to justify torture, but Dick was too much of a wimp to serve his country in the military so I’m pretty sure there ain’t much hanging between his legs. But being a bitch myself, I can assure you that you don’t need balls to be a bitch. You just need to not give a damn what other people think of you… and Dick doesn’t even care what his family and friends think about him much less the rest of us.
I have to admit that I am more than a little perplexed by Dick’s rise to power. He flunked out of Yale – something even George W. Bush didn’t do – and has at least two DWI’s on his record – one more than Georgie Boy. So basically from 2001 to 2009 we had two dry-drunk idiots running the country. But only one of them has had the good sense to shut the hell up since leaving office.
Cheney came into politics as part of the Nixon administration and ended his politcal career with George W. Bush. Along the way he managed to skip the Reagan years opting instead to represent the least populous state in the Union. In fact, of the past five Republican presidents since Cheney got into politics, the only one that Dick didn’t work for was Ronald Reagan. Talk about a guy who can’t pick a winning horse. He works for Nixon, Ford, skips Reagan, and then comes back for the two Bushes. Four failed Presidencies and this guy still thinks his shit doesn’t stink. Of course this is the guy who headed up the vice presidential search for George W. Bush only to decide to pick himself as the candidate. I’d say he’s mastered the art of not smelling his own shit.
During his tenure as Secretary of Defense he actively worked to reduce the size of our military. And when asked about the FIVE deferments that kept him from serving in the military he responded by saying, “I had other priorities in the sixties than military service.” And yet today he wants us to listen to him pontificate on how best to protect our nation? He shot his friend in the face for goodness sakes. Too bad for his hunting buddies that he got those deferments because the military might have helped him with his aim.
And let’s not forget about his co-workers and family members. When someone manges to pull Scooter Libby out from under the bus, be sure to ask him what he thinks about his former boss. And then there’s his daughter, the lesbian. His own daughter is in a same sex relationship but Dick won’t stand up against his party’s stance on gay marriage. So in addition to shooting his friends in the face and pushing employees under the bus, he also eats his young. Now that, my friend, is one hell of a big bitch.
Hey Dick. Stick a cork in it you good for nothing jackass. You and George were elected with the narrowest of margins and you never looked back. Eight years later an overwhelming majority put Obama in office and as far as I am concerned, he has the green-light to put this country back on track. If you don’t like it, you can kiss my ass, because if I had to choose between liberating Iraq from Saddam or liberating us from you, there would be one more Hussein in the world and one less Cheney. Given the opportunity, I would have stuffed you down that hole in the ground with Saddam and sealed the door shut.
I mean it. Really.

Werner,
How do I contact you on your think positive blogsite? Do I need to join the tumblr (?) group first?
Still no passport card in sight. It’s okay if we don’t visit Montreal, we can just relax and see the NH/Vermont/Maine area or head back to Boston sooner before our LOOONG flights back to Honolulu.
Just love when we get back to our home. Nothing is better than one’s own bed and pillows. Just hope the daughter home from college doesn’t throw a party while we are gone…..
Poolman, interesting posts with JWH III. Kind of reminds me of James – intelligence, experience, but with more anger. Glad he stopped the name calling and the discourses are now civil though in disagreement.
His insistence on using “Bama” is okay. I’ll go with “Ush”, “Heney”, and “Alin”.

Obama is in the White House, Democrats have the house and the senate….why are we even wasting time talking about Republicans?
The best thing to do when you want something to go away is to pay it no attention.

It’s time that someone told Tricky Dick #2 that he is no longer the acting pResident of the U.S. I think you did the best job of telling him so far.
I would like to correct one small item in your post. These worms were never elected. They were installed both times against the wishes of We The People. Election fraud, Katherine Harris, Jeb Bush and a corrupt U.S. Supreme Court installed those thugs the first time and bald faced election fraud kept them there.
After 8 years of their reign of terror the main question that remains is who are they still blackmailing with the info they collected from their telephone tapping, email intercepting games.
George Bush and Dick Cheney are two of the most disgusting excuses for human beings to ever occupy the oval office. Both should be arrested and turned over to the World Court for prosecution for war crimes and other crimes against humanity.
The same might be said for those members of Congress who are too cowardly to bring these criminals to justice & who voted to allow these jerks to destroy this country from the inside out.
It almost makes one wish for the days of the Old West where they would have been tried, convicted and hanged on the spot!

Of course I’m not saying he gave them licenses, just illustrating his willingness to do so and his lack of vigilance when it comes to terror. I do respect the office of the President and I wish him all the luck in the world, which he will need. Bama is more out of antagonizing people here. You need to back up your facts Pool, I don’t give too much respect to people who are supported by terrorist regimes either. Muammar Qadaffi, leader of Libya (where terrorists have been funded and harbored for years) has spoken out about his support for BAMA. Why do you think that is, he knows Obama’s tough talk about terrorism and support for Isreal are nothing more than means to election. Why don’t the Marines you know agree with him? If war in Iraq is a result of profit minded officials, why then didn’t they do this in 90, when we had the support of the entire world and your boy, Vice President Mr. Honorable Richard Cheney was the secretary of defense?

By: Beth on June 5, 2009
at 12:03 PM
John, you are all over the map with these comments. Let’s try to keep focused and stick to the issues presented here.
First, I think (yes, my opinon) Cheney has a guilty conscience and is trying to rewrite his legacy. I also think (again, my opinion) he fears prosecution. And yes, you can argue compensation packages from here to eternity. Bottom line – It makes him money.
Second, I think Iraq was a war of opportunity and I feel civilians in charge abused our military for personal gain. They removed men in charge of the military who were not “on board”. “Yes men”, if you will. Those Generals who raised any objections were reassigned. Their opinions and expertise ignored. I should not have to remind you how many of our young and brave citizens have sacrificed their lives for our “crusade”. Our democracy building or nation building effort, if you will. I think it was a poorly planned war and we sent our best soldiers over there (again and again) with little and insufficient preparation and no true regard for their safety. And even before we finished what we started in Afganistan. A diversion of resources and focus. A bad idea by civilians in charge (my opinion).
I am well aware of our ties and obligations to Israel. I am well aware of their enemies on all fronts that want them destroyed.
I also know we put Saddam in power to begin with. I don’t have an issue with his demise, at all. He was not a good person. His regime, however, did keep Iran in it’s place. That balance has been destroyed.
Jesse Ventura served as a navy SEAL and is a hero (my opinion). In your OPINION he’s nutbag. Please provide evidence of his nutbagginess.
The topic of this post is Dick Cheney. We address other people in other posts. This one post is not to be a complete airing of the populace in politics. “We people” as you seem to want to categorize us, do post and discuss other topics. “Bama”, as you refer to our president, deserves to be given the respect of his position. This slur alone shows your disrespect. I guess you are no longer in service of this country to not address the commander in chief by his true name. If you are (or were) truly a marine, John, you know these things. All the marines I know may not agree with him, but they respect his authority. They also tell me “once a marine, always a marine.”
And if you are going to quote “Bama”, please provide the reference and not just opinion and heresay. Are you insinuating that is was our president who issued driver’s licenses to the terrorists involved in 9/11? That is absurd.
If you want to discuss Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, and other cronies, that is not the topic of this post. Please consider the topic at hand and provide your evidence to support your convictions and rants.
The balls in your court, sir.

In regard to those terrorists who have birth certificates like you and I Poolman. Bama says “its the right idea to give 12m illegal aliens a drivers license. Did you know that 13 of the 19 terrorists who attacked the trade centers initiated this operation by obtaining a Driver’s license?
Also, to insuiate that the Vice President knew about 9/11 specifically and did nothing is absurd, he is not the only one sitting on those briefings which means others knew of the impending attack as well, where are they on this blog?

Poolman, are you speculating on Mr. Cheney’s motivation now? Suspecting that he is trying to clear his conscience before he dies? Thats a good theory pal, but thats all it is, theory. Also you should take a look at executive compensation packages and options which you may not even understand. So he sent us to war to make money, is that what you truly believe? Yes, I agree that WMD was perhaps misguided and I also believe that we liberated Iraq because of a much larger picture than anyone on here may fathom. I will give some which I received from a more reliable source than any of these little links. That is we (US) took out a hostile regime that did in fact aid in terrorist organizations and provided a safe haven for them to operate. The US also took out a threat who was making Isreal very nervous, don’t ignore their political clout Poolman.
Also, Generals have their motivations as well and there are plenty who don’t get air time who are proponents of our tactics. Ventura is a nutbag with his own agenda, please don’t disregard that.
But on a larger note, is this what you people want to use time discussing, going round and round about former Vice President Cheney? Why don’t you use the same passion to address things like Bama saying that he voted against the war? Interesting claim since he was not yet in the Senate at the time of the vote on the Iraq war isn’t it?

Mr. Hoge,
These ladies have been very popular for almost a year now – featured in newspapers, magazines and TV shows along the way. They were even named to the Top 50 Women in Technology by Fast Company Magazine. Several like you have come and gone. We will survive your drive-by as well. In case you haven’t noticed, they have already posted twice since this one and most of the gang has moved on… maybe you can too… move on that is.
Good luck to you.
With Love,
Another Proud “Liberal Scum”

Mr. Hogue III,
Both sides can learn to use good etiquette when presenting their arguments. Even though the results at the end of the day will not be changed, it at least opens up the possibility of understanding instead of condemning.
I thank you for your latest post. That was a class act post, especially compared to how you first came in blazing with both barrels firing insults.
Thank you also for serving our country.
Sally
