6. Yes. What that means is Cheney ignores the empty part.
In other words, it's never "half full" ... it's always "full" and the part that isn't just doesn't exist.

Sounds like he's got Cheney pegged. :evilgrin:

8. Sure he is--totally optimistic
He is totally optimistic that the war will be generational.......
that the profits of Halliburton will swell as a direct result of that war......
and there is a ton of money to be made from the chaos.......

He doesn't see the chaos as being a bad thing see?
It all comes down to profit.
He doesn't see the death and destruction as a negative thing.
He only sees the potential for profit.

So.....sure he is optimistic.
What is a few hundred thousand dead here and there?
What is a few thousands injured?
What are a few thousand dead US soldiers?
PIFFLE......compared to the billions and billions of money to be made.........

Sarcasm ON.
