I mean, the oil spill/leak/deluge is a real big deal....and he's quiet as the grave.

3. If I had real power
I'd dunk him in the oil swill until he confessed his crimes - oilboard that war criminal.

6. Cheney's culpability
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.... traced a clear path of oily footprints straight to the former "co-president"

"...between January and March of 2001, incoming Vice President Dick Cheney conducted secret meetings with over 100 oil industry officials allowing them to draft a wish list of industry demands to be implemented by the oil friendly administration. Cheney also used that time to re-staff the Minerals Management Service with oil industry toadies including a cabal of his Wyoming carbon cronies."

Cheney needs to be hauled before a grand jury and forced under oath to tell us what deals he made, so that the people can see how ideologically radical free-market deregulation, (otherwise known as greed), is the fond of disaster. Of course, Cheney is a grand master at eluding such scenarios, but if the will can be found, if enough people want it, we just might get him on the stand. Grill, baby, grill.

9. And he is an "expert" who has been in the oil business his entire life
But yet when it comes to war which he avoided and received 5 draft deferments which he doesn't know anything about he has plenty to say.

10. He's roiling in a vat of venom. Give him time. The level of toxicity
has to take time to raise to his normal level.

(It's from his type the fictional fire-breathing dragon was created. A thinly veiled metaphor.)
