Cheney Makes Surprise Appearance At CPAC
Rachel Slajda | February 18, 2010, 12:58PM


Former Vice President Dick Cheney just made a surprise appearance at CPAC after his daughter, Liz Cheney, finished her speech.

The crowd went wild, standing up and cheering for several minutes before he began talking. One man yelled, "Four more years!"

"Knock it off!" Cheney said. "A welcome like that is almost enough to make me want to run for office again. But I'm not gonna do it."

He spoke briefly and offered his predictions for the November mid-terms.

"2010 is going to be a phenomenal year, and I think Barack Obama is a one-term president," he said to wild applause.

4. Coming from a VP who was appointed by the SCOTUS once, and then stole a second term...
...Cheney can take his own advice and FUCK HIMSELF.

What a lying piece of crap. The man oversaw the worst terrorist attack on American soil in history--ignored warnings that could have prevented the attack and saved lives--and his opinion is suppposed to mean something?

Not hardly. Shut up, Dick.

5. Also, he picked himself to be Jr's running mate
Tasked to find the best VP candidate, he picked himself.

Who woulda thunk it...

7. "2010 is going to be a phenomenal year". He forgot to add .. If.
IF the Obama Administration continues to ignore it's base

IF the Obama Administration continues to Suck up to blue dogs and Lieberman's

And the Obama Administration continues on with its bi-partisan wet dream

Will he ??

If NOT then he WILL be rewarded with a second term and the midterms may be saved.

If SO then ....

"2010 is going to be a phenomenal year, and I think Barack Obama is a one-term president"
Dick Cheney

Help Obama , Help himself by confronting him over re-pug concessions and backing him over true progressive reforms.Blind personal partisanship at this point only benefits the Cheney's of the world.

8. Is that a threat against the President?
I mean, this is a guy who thinks waterboarding is not torture, so I have no idea what he might do to make his statement stick.

Bring him in, boys, and waterboard him until he confesses to the plot!!!

No sarcasm implied or intended!

10. This from a man who lied to start a war to make money?
Dick & Rummy need to be held accountable for all the lives, blood, and trillions
of dollars that have been spent.

You go CPAC and tie your fortunes to a man w/ a 15% approval rating.

14. Hmmmmmm
I think Cheney is a great life-term maximum security prison convict candidate!

Honestly, who in America still believes anything this fool says?
Doesn't he know he's a complete idiot and incredibly hated insect?

24. Cheney continues to be an asshole however ya know what, he might be right.
Edited on Sat Feb-20-10 04:42 AM by cstanleytech
Ya its shocking to think but Obama might be a one term president and its not the republicans fault for it but rather people who claim to be democrats who have done this to him and i dont mean the liebermans either.
/rant on
I mean the ultra wackos (you know who you are) who kept demanding things from Obama and the dems like "they better do this or else" be it Gitmo or other stuff, you are who helped the GOP regain what they lost, your actions and whines gave them the wedge they needed to rally and to be complete honest I found it as disgusting as the stuff i see the far right pull on a daily basis and yet you dare claim to be better than them and not at all like them.
So pull your heads out of your backsides because if ya keep this up Palin might be president come 2012 and then we can all kiss our butts goodbye because that lady is an idiot
/end rant

26. Well, Cheney was a two-term president ...
..., with his tamed chimp GWB as front-man.

And, that Palin/Beck ticket is awfully tempting ...

:hi:
