Anyone else tracking the wheelchair movements?

1. Well in fairness
He was supposedly just injured yesterday. Not much time to plan. Of course, things should by default be more accessible in my opinion.

5. There was no way Cheney was going to pass up the chance...
...to attend the Inauguration dressed as Dr. Strangelove.

6. When I heard Cheney had hurt his back ...
and he was going to be in a Wheelchair for the ceremony, this is what came to my mind.



As soon as the event was over you knew he was going to get out of that wheelchair ala Guy Caballero

7. Guy Caballero was the first thing I had in mind
What a faker/liar. No one gets put in a wheelchair because of a bad low back strain. In fact, sitting down is even WORSE for your back.

I'm not playing Bill Frist. I only know this because I had a bad low back strain that put me out of work for a week a few years ago, and they told me to refrain from sitting in a chair for long periods unless I had lumbar support.

9. I heard he injured it "moving boxes" yesterday.
I laughed out loud. Dick Cheney DOES NOT move boxes, he has people to do that for him. What a load of crap.

I doubt his back is injured at all. I suspect this was his petulant protest and means of refusing to stand for the inauguration.

8. I saw him enter in his chair;
I saw him smirk and *smile* in his chair; now I've forgotten him, the miserable fuck.

Sweet.
