The Curse of Dick Cheney

The veep's career has been marred by one disaster after another

By T.D. ALLMAN

Should George W. Bush win this election, it will give him the distinction of being the first occupant of the White House to have survived naming Dick Cheney to a post in his administration. The Cheney jinx first manifested itself at the presidential level back in 1969, when Richard Nixon appointed him to his first job in the executive branch. It surfaced again in 1975, when Gerald Ford made Cheney his chief of staff and then -- with Cheney's help -- lost the 1976 election. George H.W. Bush, having named Cheney secretary of defense, was defeated for re-election in 1992. The ever-canny Ronald Reagan was the only Republican president since Eisenhower who managed to serve two full terms. He is also the only one not to have appointed Dick Cheney to office.

1. If you think you hate Cheney now

just wait til you finish this article! A must read, revealing an amoral, subhuman dirtbag. I've said it before--I won't be happy until this steaming pile of excrement is hauled off in leg irons.
On edit: and his hideous wife is every bit as loathesome.

3. wrong. his hideous wife is WORSE!

11. I take it you don't like either of them

2. To understand the evil that is Dick Cheney, this is a must read.

:kick:

[Catfight]

4. I don't need to read that Cheney is sub-human, it's evident, he permeates

evil with his growl, grimace and just hunched over Scrooge appearance.

5. delete/error

wrong forum...sorry

6. Kee-Riste! What a screw up!

And this is the OTHER drunk who is running our country?

God help us all!

7. And for all those who think Bush is like a hole surrounding himself with a

doughnut...here's even more hole. Cheney is an obvious screw-up, all things like this considered. And Rumsfeld, Rice (Ms. August 2001), er-ah...even Powell doesn't look so great in the cold clear light of yellowcake and mobile...maybe weather...er...balloon....maybe....not biowarfare....uh....how's about that lack of WMD's?

Nonetheless. Cheney seems to have been Mikey from the Life cereal commercial--hey, there's Cheney...he hates....oh, except money....everything. Crunch. Crunch, hey, Cheney likes war. Hey Cheney!

8. paragraph says it all - why don't we campaign with his record in Congress

snip:> People who find Cheney's extremism as vice president surprising have not looked at his congressional voting record. In 1986, he was one of only twenty-one members of the House to oppose the Safe Drinking Water Act. He fought efforts to clean up hazardous waste and backed tax breaks for energy corporations. He repeatedly voted against funding for the Veterans Administration. He opposed extending the Civil Rights Act. He opposed the release of Nelson Mandela from jail in South Africa. He even voted for cop-killer bullets.<<<

If Kerry's record in Congress is in play, why not Big Dick's?

And for that matter why not break down BUSH'S BUSINESS RECORD from the same time frame. Bankruptcies, insider trading, other crony deals like the baseball stadium.

9. Failing Up

This dirt bag and his wife are worth $70 Mill but they just can't get enough. They need to have more American and Iraqi blood shed to increase their stash. Sociapathetic scum!

[young_at_heart]

10. You have to wonder how society creates such people

I simply cannot stay in the room when he appears on television because his "style" of communication seems so foreign to American "values". The fact that he always wears a flag lapel pin is enough to make a person scream!

[smirkymonkey]

12. This just confirms my belief that Cheney is a classic Sociopath.

What was his early upbringing like? I am interested in what kind of circumstances create such evil. We know W* blew up frogs w/ firecrackers, indicating early his sociopathic tendencies.

Anyone know what's in Cheney's early background?
