The Twisted Mind of Dick Cheney
Interesting article about Cheney's decades long obsession with the imperial presidency and how he and his cabal really do not believe in America. That hate democracy as being weak. They want an authoritarian government and have been working slyly in the shadows to destroy our democracy as we know it.

1. When he is in his prison cell he can live in his special world..
it's just a matter of time before the house of cards come tumbling down....they have lost control of a runaway freight train withought breaks.They managed to keep the train going at top speed on a flat track until the 2006 elections and now they are on a steep hill and the speed is increasing every day........it's coming folks and there is nothing the Neocon Repuglicans can do but jump off the train or wait for the obvious ending.....

Just sayin...

3. Great article! K&R
It pretty much summarizes the reason why Cheney and the other neocons are behaving as they do - they don't believe in American values such as freedom, fair trials, checks & balances, etc. They're fundamentally authoritarians, and will not stop until the U.S. is their pet dictatorship.

4. The unitary executive
Proves why we fought so hard to stop Alito from reaching the SCOTUS bench.
