9. Relax. Naked Cheney is not something we'll ever see.
I don't think that suit ever comes off, except when its covered with the blood of the guy he's just shot in the face.

2. It was posted here from an article by Wayne Madsen. Which means it's fiction. NT

6. Yeah, I put him in the same category as The Washington Post and The New York Times.
Sometimes reliable; but often not.

7. I put him in the "never reliable" list along with the Washington Times and the
New York Post.

14. can you enlighten me about him some? I just went to his site for the first
time. I know absolutely nothing about him, as I've never heard him or read anything from him before. I quit watching the "news" many many years ago, pretty much all TV actually. Honestly, my attention span limits me to 30 min shows... 1 hour tops, but it has GOT to be funny and make me laugh, or teach me something (think Discovery Channel nature shows). Reading books about politics and/or government?? Who, me? Not likely... my reading materials were limited to hunting and fishing magazines. Yes, I was your typical "I don't do politics, that's for the eggheads in DC to keep up with" type person. I went down every 4 years and pushed the D buttons, not knowing, or really even caring who they were, I just knew that my family voted for Democrats, and I was getting a half day off with pay to go vote.

Anyways, just by reading part of his bio on his about me page, I don't find anything that would make me question his reporting or credentials.

" Wayne Madsen is an investigative journalist, nationally distributed columnist, and author who has covered Washington, DC, politics, national security, and intelligence issues since 1994. He has written for The Village Voice, The Progressive, CAQ, Counterpunch, and the Intelligence Newsletter (based in Paris). Madsen is the author of Genocide and Covert Operations in Africa 1993-1999, co-author of America's Nightmare: The Presidency of George Bush II, and the forthcoming Jaded Tasks: Big Oil, Black Ops & Brass Plates. Madsen is also the author of The Handbook of Personal Data Protection (London: Macmillan, 1992), an acclaimed reference book on international data protection law.

Madsen is a former U.S. Naval officer who was assigned to the National Security Agency during the Reagan administration. He also has some twenty years experience in computer security and data privacy. He has also worked for the Naval Data Automation Command, Department of State, RCA Corporation, and Computer Sciences Corporation."

So please tell me, what has he done to deserve to be dismissed? Is he just a hack? He seems to be a strong voice against this misadministration.

Thank you,

Ghost

21. There's a reason DU does not permit anything of his in LBN.
Read almost anything he's written — it's all fantastic speculation, none of which has come true.

8. Unlike The New York Times and the Washington Post, however,
Madsen hasn't gotten us into any illegal and immoral wars, or covered up corrupt national elections.

3. No way!
There's no way he would seek affection from any other woman than his wife! She's so bright and cheery. :sarcasm:

18. Does the DC Madam have cadavers in her stable?
Maybe she leaves them in a bog somewhere around DC so Cheney can go wallow in the slime and corruption and feel at home in his natural element.

19. Wouldn't surprise me one bit but you'll never hear about it from the M$M
It will be buried so deep ... even deeper than Jimmy Hoffa.
