WASHINGTON, DC - NOVEMBER 29: Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney (L) refuses to answer press questions as he leaves the Senate Republican policy luncheon with Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN) (3rd L) at the U.S. Captiol November 29, 2011 in Washington, DC. The Senate Democratic and Republican caucuses met separately behind closed doors to discuss the annual $226 billion Defense Authorization legislation. The White House has threatened to veto the military spending bill over parts of the bill requiring that al-Qaeda members captured on US soil be held by the military and not civilian authorties. Senate Armed Services Committee ranking member Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said there was a robust debate on the detainee issue during the GOP luncheon, but Cheney did not join the discussion.

1. probably putting the "black spot" into the hands of those voting

a small piece of paper with a black spot on it.

[TheCowsCameHome]

2. Five bucks to anyone that yanks those wires and runs for the door

Takers?

[butterfly77]

10. Damn,I was thinking the same thing...

Lol!:rofl:

[grasswire]

3. what are those tubes?

For oxygen? Or does he plug in to a battery?

[Mz Pip]

7. He plugs into a battery

That's the battery pack and the tubes route the power to his fake heart. It's pretty amazing technology for those who can afford it.

[TheCowsCameHome]

9. Those were left over from when he was operating IdiotSon Bush.

They're deactivated now.

[JoePhilly]

11. when you embrace the dark side, it takes lots of machines to keep you alive.

[Mz Pip]

4. He really looks awful

I'm always surprised when I hear that he is out and about.

[CatWoman]

16. I was thinking the same thing

[geckosfeet]

5. He would just lie and obfuscate anyway.

[Bonhomme Richard]

6. I think God is punishing this country by letting him....

stay around.
It's probably because neither heaven nor hell wants to deal with him.

[onethatcares]

8. ya know, I thought about the same thing

concerning someone else. That God is making his health a nightmare, not enough hurt to die, not enough wellness to live fully, due to that person being an asshole of the nth degree.

It could happen, and only the good do die young. :shrug:

[Demoiselle]

21. I've always assumed that God intended him to die at 37...

...his age when he had his first heart attack, but that God was taken by surprise by human medical advances.
I like your theory better.
I just wish the country wasn't suffering, too...

[CrispyQ]

27. Or hell thinks he's doing a good job & manges to foil attempts to remove him:

;)

[lunatica]

12. Are those plastic tubes hanging out of his torso?

Never mind. I saw the answer upthread.

[gratuitous]

13. He wouldn't answer questions when he was on the public payroll

He sure as hell isn't going to answer any questions now, even though all that machinery keeping him alive is being provided at our expense, as well as lifetime protection by the Secret Service. And his pension(s). And his ongoing health care. Not to mention that sweet little $175,000 annual helping from the Treasury he voted for himself back in 2001 when the Bush tax cuts were first enacted.

A thoroughly loathesome and reprehensible human being.

[Whisp]

14. fucking beelzebub

[madamesilverspurs]

15. Kind of tacky

to start haunting before he's dead . . .

[Kingofalldems]

17. Very pale. Is that rouge on his cheeks?

[Liberal_in_LA]

20. his cheeks are always kinda pink

[grasswire]

28. rosy cheeks are a manifestation of congestive heart failure

he's had them for a while.

[Kingofalldems]

31. That brings up a question. Will he get a new heart?

I am betting yes.

[rug]

18. Oh, look. His heart is wired to his ass.

[Liberal_in_LA]

19. he's lost weight

[Demoiselle]

22. Why does he flaunt his wiring?

He must get off on being Darth Vader....
Eeeyewwwww.

[grasswire]

29. yeah, wouldn't you think he would tuck it inside his clothing?

I wonder if he had a colostomy if he would wear the bag and tubes on the outside of his pants for us all to see.

Not that there's anything shameful about medical aids -- but most people keep such things private.

[Brother Buzz]

23. Where's Serge Storms when we need him

The real die hard Tom Doherty fans should know what I'm referring to

[dhill926]

25. ah yup.....

It's Tim Dorsey, but I get you. Serge would have a field day......

[Brother Buzz]

26. Ouch, Tim it is

:rofl:

[madokie]

24. I hope they keep that mofo alive for years yet

whatever it takes, keep him alive. At some point if he lives long enough it'll hit him the damage done and the lost lives he's responsible for. I just know it has to at some point.

[QED]

30. Evil bastard.

Vile, evil, bastard. His ass belongs in The Hague.

[Snarkoleptic]

32. Heartless bastard.

[spanone]

33. dead man walking

war criminal

[Solly Mack]

34. Just one of America's several war criminals.

Oh well...

[sabrina 1]

35. What is he doing there? The only reason he should be anywhere

near Congress is to answer questions about war crimes.

He looks as evil as he is. I guess after a while the poison inside shows on the outside.

[MilesColtrane]

36. The Undead still control GOP policy.

Are cyborgs, vampires, and ghouls considered the 1%?
