Poll question: WTF is Cheney trying to say?
Cheney claims that Obama's policies are making America vulnerable.

But, wasn't he one of the people in the last administration saying that terrorists attack America because of our freedoms?

So, what exactly is Dick saying?


(Something fun)


Dick has a Special Message for everyone!

2. When a man's an empty kettle...
When a man's an empty kettle he should be on his mettle,
And yet I'm torn apart.
Just because I'm presumin' that I could be kind-a-human,
If I only had heart.
I'd be tender - I'd be gentle and awful sentimental
Regarding Love and Art.
I'd be friends with the sparrows ...
and the boys who shoots the arrows
If I only had a heart.
Picture me - a balcony. Above a voice sings low.
Wherefore art thou, Romeo? I hear a beat....
How sweet.
Just to register emotion, jealousy - devotion,
And really feel the part.
I could stay young and chipper
and I'd lock it with a zipper,
If I only had a heart.

9. When is Dick going to start whining about Obama not pardoning Scooter?
Since that's his favorite topic.

10. Interesting question.
Maybe Obama should scare the shit out of him and hint that investigations will begin/continue into Scooter's commutation?

LOL!

11. Let's assume for a moment that Dick is right...
just for the sake of argument.

Furthermore, let's expand on Dick and Bush's policies and anytime we can identify a terrorist, we kill said terrorist and/or burn their village or neighborhood to the ground, kill all the men, rape all the women, poison the livestock, torch the fields, plow salt into the soil, and erect a monument in the middle of town that says, "THIS is what happens to terrorists". I'm sure the wingnuts would be all pop a chubby at just the thought.

I have little doubt such a policy would make America "safer" at least in the short term. It worked great for the Romans for centuries.

However, at some point you lose more than you would ever hope to gain.

And THAT'S what's completely fucked up about Dick and Bush's neocon "policies". At some point you become your enemy. Personally I would rather defeat those who use terrorism as a weapon, not join them. Call me crazy.

13. Between that bulge in his britches and the little girl with a bullet hole in her temple
I think I'll just close one eye and fart.

15. I don't doubt we get attacked again.
What I don't expect to happen is that we overreact to it.

Or gut the Constitution in response.

But, that's just me.
