Dick Cheney Gone Wild
Vice President Dick Cheney rolled out the heavy artillery to try to squash any and all opposition to the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld-Powell War in Iraq. It’s always interesting how “Darth” Cheney always appears from his appointed task of running the shadow government somewhere to don his cape and quell discussion and debate over whatever questionable administration policy has seized the moment. He always adds the “adult” voice to the chorus after all the “young un’s” like Condoleeza Rice have flailed away fruitlessly attempting to sway public opinion in the administration’s favor. The implied message to us all is: “Hush up now. Daddy’s home. Mind your manners.”

Cheney warned us all about the big, bad, boogie day of doom that awaits us all if we don’t toe the line. He tried very hard to frighten as many people as he could with his portrayal of the horrors that are in store if we don’t let these administration cowboys continue to round up and dispose of the terrorist herd at will.

Oh, and anyone who disagrees with him is a wimp.

Well, Dick, I noticed you delivered your bold message at the Heritage Foundation, the well-endowed incubator of conservative thought. Who’s the wimp here? If that ain’t preaching to the choir, I don’t know what is.

2. None of these guys are able to face any debate whasoever...
Hence 'the institutes': CATO-Heritage-Enterprise...

The other day out here @ Simi Valley's Reagan Neo-con Venue, Rumsfeld fielded questions and who pops up first and front row with a big ole meatball?

Pete Wilson...

While Rumsfeld had a thing or two to say here & there; none of the ole Nixon-Bush-Cheney-Rove-Rumsfeld Cabal are even capable of forthright exchange. Never have been never will be. It is not in their personality template. To talk down to; to belittle and demean now that is their ticket out of town.
