Cheney: No, we don't want him dead

[LuckyTheDog]

I am glad that Cheney was not hurt in the apparent assassination attempt.

Whatever one thinks about the vice president, it would be an outrage if he were injured or killed by the likes of the despicable Taliban.

It is, however, tragic that others died. Let's not let them die in vain. Let's get serious about finishing the job in Afghanistan!

1. We? You got a frog in your pocket?

;)

[LuckyTheDog]

10. Oh come on now

You can't really say you hate Cheney more than you hate those woman-hating Taliban, can you?

If anyone kills Cheney, it should be the God, via a thunderbolt that comes out of a clear, blue sky, followed by an audible: "Take, that, you bastard."

[Horse with no Name]

12. Hmmmm

What a choice:
Woman hater Cheney vs. Woman hater Taliban?
Hard question.
I can tell you one thing though.
Cheney is in a greater position to hurt me than the Taliban is.
Therein lies your answer.

[LuckyTheDog]

15. Cheney is a sick man

He will not long be able to harm anyone. And giving a "victory" to the Taliban (whom I despise even more than I despise Cheney, Bush or Scooter Libby) would not make me happy. The thunderbolt... much better.

[Horse with no Name]

21. Every single day that he breathes

people die.

And dude, get a clue. The Taliban has flourished because they took their eye off the prize.
THAT is their victory handed to them on a golden platter from Bush and Cheney et al.

[LuckyTheDog]

24. I agree

Buch and Cheney allowed the Taliban to make a come-back in order to concentrate on their neo-con nation-buiding/oil stealing project in Iraq. But that does not make the Taliban any less vile.

[Horse with no Name]

27. Well not sure why we are having this protracted conversation

Is this being cross-posted somewhere else to show how vile DU'ers are?:hi:

[LuckyTheDog]

47. What?

What is your implication? I would not want to hand any "victory" to the vile Taliban or provide any pretext for responsive "action" by the puke neocons. And, frankly, as much as I despise Cheney, there is a part of me that remembers that he was voted for by my fellow Americans and is, himself, a fellow American (of a sort). Hence, if he is to be brought to justice, I think it should be by us, by our rules, and in open court.

[dogday]

45. I am glad he is not hurt. I want him to stand trial

and suffer and have the shittiest legacy on the face of the planet.... Dying is too good for him...

[valerief]

2. You forgot your meds today, buddy! nt

[Phredicles]

3. It's better that he's alive to stand trial.

But if he did die, I can't say I'd grieve a whole lot.

[Taverner]

7. No I wouldn't grieve much either...

[SoFlaJet]

4. no we never wish

for our opponents in football to get injured-politics either

[BlueStater]

5. I'd rather him die in prison a disgraced and hated figure n/t

[JuniperLea]

6. Sure we did

Take a deep breath... and never, ever forget...

Cheney is NOT human. Don't waste your empathy on him.

[tridim]

8. Whew, thank gawd The Dick has more chances to shoot his hunting partners in the face n/t

[shadowknows69]

9. Sorry, this man has raised too much hate in me

for me to be happy that he's still breathing our air. He should suffer for every life lost in this war. Iraq or Afghanistan.

[muntrv]

11. No need to make a martyr out of Cheney. I'd rather he die in prison.

[951-Riverside]

13. LuckyTheDog I'm just curious....

What compelled you to post this topic?

Let's get serious about finishing the job in Afghanistan!

Here you go! http://www.goarmy.com/contact/find_a_recruiter.jsp?hmref=cs :patriot:

[LuckyTheDog]

18. We have neglected Afghanistan

That we neglected Afghanistan and invaded Iraq... was one of (if not THE)worst foreign policy blunders in U.S. history.

[Cha]

14. Hell NO I don't want that freaked out

piece of shit to be martyred by the fascists. That's all we need is a week of the cheney dirge..talk about distraction.

[BlueStater]

22. No kidding

The worst thing that would happen if Cheney was killed would be the week long orgyfest from the media painting Dick as some sort of great man. :puke:

[Bluebear]

16. Agreed, he needs to stand trial for his war profiteering. nt

[Forkboy]

17. I don't wish but there's gonna be one hell of a celebration if it happens

:evilgrin:

[Demobrat]

32. Where I live

they'd have to close the streets to traffic to make room for the PAR-TAY!

[teryang]

19. Cheney is the best thing to happen to radical Islam

He's a source of invective and outrage. He's a source of funding and weapons. He provides a world wide market for Taliban drugs. Terrorists harming him is the most unlikely event in the world. He's their sugar daddy.

[marlakay]

20. Don't want the repubs to have new VP

to run in 08...so better evil cheney stays there, staying evil...in fact I hope he says more evil things...every word he utters is hundreds of more votes on our side.

[catabryna]

36. You and I think alike. NT

[Jennicut]

23. Cheney is way worse than the Taliban or Osama

After all, he and Rumsfeld led to there being an Osama in the first place. Wake up people! :mad:

[Demobrat]

25. I wouldn't like him to be killed.

It wouldnt bother me if he lost a few limbs and suffered horribly though.

[BlueStater]

29. He wouldn't suffer

Cheney may very well have the power to re-grow limbs.

[Parche]

26. TALIBAN

What have the Taliban ever done to us????

[LiberalEsto]

28. Nah, I want him to serve time in prison

If he'd died he'd have become a martyr.

Don't you just puke at the thought of airports, highways and schools named after the Dick of Death?

[jeff30997]

30. Just imagine them...

Renaming the Washington monument:the Dick monument!!!

[LiberalEsto]

44. Aaaaaaaargh!

Noooooo! My head is exploding!

[jannyk]

31. I was thinking more poetic justice than...

outrage. There would have been absolutely no rage outed hereabouts

[Disturbed]

33. "Let's get serious about finishing the job in Afghanistan!"

What exactly is that job?

[LuckyTheDog]

52. Come on now

As much as I hate the war in Iraq, I supported military action against the Taliban because of their role in harboring al Qaeda. But the fact that we have in some ways made things worse there (heroin production is an example) is a disgrace. We need to end the Iraq war and concentrate on stabilizing Afghanistan and isolating the nutty Taliban who would ban the education of girls and send the country into the dark ages.

Finishing the job in Afghanistan has a military component, to be sure. But is mainly has a MONEY component. As it does here, economic despair helps spread religious fundamentalism in the Islamic world.

[Wapsie B]

34. In no way would I want any of them Kennedyed.

No martyrs for the gop. Let him go down with the ship and take the rest of his party with him.

[politicat]

35. Agree, with caveat....

I don't want him dead in any way that the administration can use to improve their standing. Dying in an attack while in one of the war zones we've started would give this administration ammunition.

However, if he died in a cheap motel room with heroin and meth in his system, several paid companions of various genders and orientations and ages by his side, while on camera and committing acts that were until the recent USSC decision illegal in Georgia.... I'd have no problems with his death whatsoever.

[LuckyTheDog]

50. Exactly

Good post.

[whathappened]

37. that just about made me blind

here this news whore saying that people were killed but cheney was not hurt , i would have said there were some unfortionet people who died today in a bomb blast and vice was unharmed , she just run right thru the dead like it did'nt mean a thing that these poor people were killed , but gleemed about the vice being alive and well

51. Part of me agrees with you.

The bastard certainly has it coming...

But like mentioned, violence against them only makes them stronger. There are plenty of assholes waiting in line to replace him.

But if he did get whacked, I would be dancing an Irish jig!

[az chela]

39. ok you need to rethink this!!!!!!!!!

Now read my lips
cheney is evil
bush is evil
condi is evil
afghanistan has never been proved to have caused 9/11

[Left Hook]

40. The secret service is breathing down Huffington Post's neck

do you want that to happen here?

[Rex]

41. Holy shit!

What the hell happen while I was at work!?!?!

[Raksha]

43. Hey Agent Mike!!!

I don't want the Taliban making a martyr out of Darth Cheney! Too easy a way out for him, and it would mean bragging rights for them. Way too good for either one of 'em. I'd rather see him at the Hague, if it's okay with you. :hi:

[lonestarnot]

42. Dead is too good for that bastard!

[AnnInLa]

46. Sometimes, some posters here say things just

to get a reaction that they can report all over the RW blogs to show how very "horrible" we are, how we have Bush (et al)Derangement Syndrome. For example, DU threads from the Cheney-near-miss is featured at Michelle Malkin, Red State and Right Wing News.

http://www.rightwingnews.com/mt331/2007/02/the_democratic_underground_pos.php

just sayin'

[LuckyTheDog]

48. Well, that's not what I am doing

I merely wanted to go on record on DU as saying that I did NOT want Cheney killed and was glad that he wasn't (disgusting person that he is).

I would not want to hand any "victory" to the vile Taliban or provide any pretext for responsive "action" by the puke neocons. And, frankly, as much as I despise Cheney, there is a part of me that remembers that he was voted for by my fellow Americans and is, himself, a fellow American (of a sort). Hence, if he is to be brought to justice, I think it should be by us, by our rules, and in open court.

Whether people respond to my posts, how they respond and how others use the information is not my concern. And I don't appreciate your paranoid back-handed accusation.

[AnnInLa]

53. Sorry.....didn't mean you specifically

And, I meant "unintended" consequences of things we say. Should have worded it better.

[ProfessorGAC]

49. So? I'm Seriously Asking

Why would you, or why should i, care what the troglodytes at that site are saying? First, it's not that many of them. Secondly, if we started calling Silverspoon, St. George, they would still loathe us.

So, let them play their silly little, "liberals hate america" game. You know, and i know, they've got nothing else.
