Watching the evil that is Dick Cheney, on his promo book tour....
... I guess I can be thankful that at least George Bush didn't die in office. Even the fleeting thought of Dick Cheney as President is so frightful one can't dwell on it for very long! Can you imagine?? :scared:

1. For me the fear was if Cheeeeney died and actually Bush would be
"president."

4. What scares me the most about Dick Cheney
is watching him on TV and realizing he truly has no regrets about anything he's done. I don't see any pretense or deceit there at all. He thinks he was right and would do it all over again.

Just as scary, he spawned a daughter with the same world view and has political ambitions.

6. I have no doubt that
with martial law, he would have been a Gaddafi or a Castro.Even the legal restraints of a democracy didn't contain his ambitions. Just imagine what he would have been like without those restraints.

(There are over 100 ways to spell Gaddafi and I'm never sure which one to use) :shrug:

8. Can't go wrong with his name then
I heard somewhere recently that there are over 100 different spellings for his name, so I figure I'll just try to use them all.

:hi:
