Cheney taunts male democrats for not standing up to Pelosi
Edited on Fri Dec-07-07 09:58 PM by Enrique
he's just pissed about the energy bill that passed in the House...

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1207/7234.html

(...)

Most striking were his virtually taunting remarks of two men he described as friends from his own days in the House: Democratic Reps. John Dingell (Mich.) and John P. Murtha (Pa.).

In a 40-minute interview with Politico, he scoffed at the idea of two men who spent years accruing power showing so much deference to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) in the big spending and energy debates of the year.

Murtha “and the other senior leaders … march to the tune of Nancy Pelosi to an extent I had not seen, frankly, with any previous speaker,” Cheney said. “I’m trying to think how to say all of this in a gentlemanly fashion, but the Congress I served in, that wouldn’t have happened.”

But his implication was clear: When asked if these men had lost their spines, he responded, “They are not carrying the big sticks I would have expected.”

1. Back them into a corner and they show their true colors...
They * and Cheney can't stand the fact that the Speaker of the House is a woman.....

Granted Pelosi hasn't fared as well as I thought she would but if it's any solace she is like a needle in their eye.....bwah...haw...haw

2. Cheney: "If these guys had any balls at all, they'd pepper her face with bird shot."
Cheney's "not carrying the big sticks" double entendre is actually pretty funny.

"They are not carrying the big sticks I would have expected. You know what I mean? Got nothing in their coin purse. Their noodles are a bit limp. Swinging an empty sack. Are you guys gettin' this? No lead in the pencil."

3. I bet their sticks work whereas Cheney's clearly doesn't
and his cardiac condition clearly contraindicates the use of Viagra, Cialis or Levitra.

A little projection anyone?

But Lynn doesn't care anyway, she has her Sisters.

5. And yet Pelosi continues to fawn over Bush and Cheney in public.
She is the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the office the Founding Fathers thought would be the most powerful in the Republic.

She should treat both Bush and Chaney with contempt for the crimes they have committed, tempered only by her respect for the offices they have stolen.

Our representatives should steamroll past Pelosi and impeach his worthless ass. Good point, DICK.

17. Mighty powerful words....
...from a five-deferment, fat, small-cocked pussy who needs a battalion of security and medical professionals to keep him alive. Hey, fuckface, why don't you take a stroll in any major city (try New Orleans) with your horse-faced, flippy-floppy wifey at night without all your protection?

What's that you say? Other priorities? I thought so, you fucking sissy.
