More Dick Cheney please, the last ones were delicious.
Cheney’s decision to serve as the self-appointed defender of the Bush presidency has significantly raised his profile in the first 100 days of the Obama administration and presents a real challenge for a party hoping to put forward new faces and fresh ideas.“He is a face of the past,” said one Republican consultant who spoke on the condition he not be named. “A face of conflict and too polarizing. So, not a good face of the party.”
Cheney is largely unpopular among voters generally and particularly independent voters that proved so critical to Obama’s across-the-board victory last fall. A late March Gallup poll showed that just three in ten voters had a favorable opinion of Cheney while 63 percent felt unfavorably toward him. Those numbers are consistent with where Gallup has shown Cheney for the last three years — a period long enough to demonstrate a hardening of opinion toward the former vice president.
The only way this could be better for the Dems to have an unpopular discredited ghoul like Cheney out there is if Cheney shot somebody in the face. Again.
Only Cheney is such a black hole of dignity that he can shoot a friend in the face and the friend gets on T.V. to apologize.
Oh, let Cheney be the campaign advisor for Palin/Jindal 2012.
As you can see, I’m still scared of Palin, tea parties, and
massive fail whales.

Nothing to be concerned about. Just release the entire document/memos that verify that the interrogation tactics didn’t reveal anything.
Torturing Arabs gives Dick a stiffy
Yeah jr, and it keeps American from dying.
And joaqin gets his wish.
Yeah jr, and it keeps American from dying.
Unless you wear a uniform.
Fucking liar.
it keeps American from dying.
I’ll be interested in seeing any evidence you have for that.
Wait, you made it up? Well then, you are what we thought you were.
Never mind.
If torture is all it takes to keep a country safe, then Saddam Hussein would still be in power.
Yeah jr, and it keeps American from dying.
Pardon me, but did you people suddenly give up your previous insistence that “America doesn’t torture”? Are we now in agreement that America does torture? And now you’re willing to own up to being in favor of it?
I’m just glad he hasn’t shot anyone else in the face yet.
I’m just glad he hasn’t shot anyone else in the face yet…that we know of.
So if you’re keeping score at home on ‘right-wing fantasy land paradise:’
1) Everybody’s packing weapons
2) No government except national defense
3) Great big walls to keep out the foreign weirdos
4) Government tortures suspects
Dick will not release the attendees of a meeting when ordered as lawful. So that the nation as a whole can see what it’s government is up to?
But he’s got a full head of steam to get it out in the open that we committed war crimes?
The arrogance astounds and the idiocy amuses.
Not content to actually use torture and then lie about it, now feckless Dick is admitting to torture and lying about how effective it is.
This creep is so utterly devoid of awareness regarding his supreme lack of credibility it’s literally astounding.
Parthy, it’s starting to sound like a hybrid of North Korea and Somolia.
