There is a reason Cheney will not be running in 2008.

[originalpckelly]

He will be a de facto emperor by then.

[Jackpine Radical]

1. Beginning to look that way.

Unless the chickenshit Dem Congress can tie a can to his tail.

[originalpckelly]

4. He's been arranging his pieces and is about to checkmate us.

We all knew it, but now he's getting more bold. Soon he'll have to make his move, because he's about to be exposed.

[Jackpine Radical]

26. Gonna be an interesting next 6 months or so.

I think his daughter, in her novel, had a passage based on the Cheney family philosophy she learned at the breakfast table. I can't quote it exactly, but in essence she was saying, through one of her characters, that if you have enough power you get to make your own rules, you can do whatever you want. The only trick is to make sure you hang onto the power.

[originalpckelly]

27. Yes, I think the Libby trial is his downfall...

it's starting to really crumble around him, and I'm worried about that.

[Jackpine Radical]

28. The cornered rat syndrome.

He is so obviously a psychopath that he's totally scary.

[whistle]

2. Cheney needs to be put behind bars long before the 2008 election

[CrazyOrangeCat]

3. his evil, clotted heart will give out.

that cold heart will not last.

[DainBramaged]

8. How do you know he isn't an alien?

[CrazyOrangeCat]

13. yer right. that "face" ain't quite right . . .

Hey, I used to work in Denville. Eaton Aircraft Control next to Lockheed, there on Ford Rd. 1989-90. Lived in Morristown.

NJ rocks!

:thumbsup:

[DainBramaged]

They are gone (I am pretty sure), and that whole area is crap now

Morristown is overpriced, and Denville is being McMansioned. Too many extra wealthy who think it is Bergen County.

[CrazyOrangeCat]

20. figures.

[tblue]

5. Is there anything to indicate that's even a possiblity?

[originalpckelly]

6. Yes, everything.

That's all.

No, but seriously, if you look at Iraq and the centralization of power, Cheney's been the prime mover. He's the one who met with the oil executives. He's the one that pushed us into Iraq. He's the one who directed the leak against Plame.

And even this Pelosi plane story, I'm willing to bet he's behind it, because she'll be using his airplane.

[tblue]

12. Oh she should most definitely NOT ride on his airplane!

[originalpckelly]

16. It's not just that, remember when Specter was writing that bill for the NSA spy program?

Cheney did the negotiations.

[stevedeshazer]

7. By then, at the rate things are going, he'll have a new undisclosed location

Lompoc, Leavenworth, Fort Dix, Guantanamo.

These remain options.

[originalpckelly]

9. No, that's the problem. The game is almost up for him...

and I don't take him for a gracious public servant willing to resign.

[leveymg]

10. His approval rating is 18 percent, and dropping . . .

[originalpckelly]

14. I think it has to do with the prosecutors being fired...

can't exactly put my finger on it, but that was something sneaky. That's his style, and so I wouldn't doubt it.

[CrazyOrangeCat]

15. LOL!!! He's lookin' like a crooner there!

"Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall . . .

BLURP! ZORP! GREEP!

[leveymg]

22. That was Act 1 - November 2000

Who are those bizarre extras on the stage with him? I know, the "blonde" is Lynn. It's like the Mod Squad.

[melody]

11. Cheney is a grade A psychopath

I doubt anything is beyond his doing. I'm sure he's murdered before and will murder again.

So Emperor ... hell, that's a piece of cake for that monster.

[smalll]

17. Even with his 18% approval, he WOULD run for President, except

he's fat, bald and not aging well. He always knew he could never be President for those very reasons, I bet. Al Gore, Giuliani and McCain each have a part of that problem. At least Gore has the part of it that is somewhat addressable.

[originalpckelly]

18. Nixon.

That's all.

[smalll]

21. Nixon wasn't fat, he wasn't bald, and he aged better than

McCain and Cheney are these days. Hell, it could be argued that he was better looking than Hubert Humphrey and George McGovern - how else could such a relatively unattractive stick get to be a two-term President?


Both good men, but both rather homely.

[leveymg]

24. Are you saying this guy is better looking? Sorry, never smitten.

[Wiley50]

19. I Hope He's Running.....From Justice n/t

[KelleyKramer]

23. He has checks to cash

Heck, he will have already been prez for 8 years

He made his friends over a trillion dollars on iraq alone

That makes for lots and lots of stock and dividends to cash in on

[barb162]

25. Oh I thought his pacemaker needs a battery change then

That guy is too old, sick and mean
