My Gawd! By Gawd! Read this and give me a believable reason why this guy shouldn't be removed from office.

Me neither, wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him.  I always thought Bush was just a figurehead with the name to get elected; Cheney was the real one calling the shots.  Can't wait to see the both of them leave office.

Chicken Little

Cheney may resign.  Just a rumor, but Norah "Noron" O'Donnell is a blue-chip WH flack.  You never know.  

She's asking Andy Card and Panetta...careful responses.

Reality of this whole thing is actually hilarious at this point. OK, who the hell would be Che Knee's replacement? Let him resign, go for instant Bush impeachment, and let Pelosi take command.

"McCain Blames Cheney for Iraq War"
"Said McCain: "The president listened too much to the Vice President... Of course, the president bears the ultimate responsibility, but he was very badly served by both the Vice President and, most of all, the Secretary of Defense... Rumsfeld will go down in history, along with McNamara, as one of the worst secretaries of defense in history."

Pretty pathetic....

sgrizzle

And to think Cheney was originally paired with Bush to give the pair more experience and credibility...

Bush tried to surround himself with the "A Team" and got the "F Team." A bunch of people who may have initially looked competent on paper or did a good interview, but should be working at McDonalds. Cheney should've left with Rumsfeld.

Now if we had Face, Murdoc, Hannibal, and BA, the war would've been over long ago.

Because he needs to do time in jail. But Bushtard will pardon him. This is incredible stuff even while we have known Cheney was the man behind the curtain.

Pay particular attention to Hardball!

A defenseless defense.

And this stuff! I am not a huge fan of Blitzer, but the interview yesterday was incredibly revealing. In it I see Dick Cheney coming unglued.

"Bottom line is that we've had enormous successes, and we will continue to have enormous successes"

The man has too many heart meds messin' up his fat head.


And them we have these goons....

Blitzer, you are not to ask trouble making questions! He should work for TulsaWorld then?

"Daffy Does Doom"

Maureen Dowd

"Delusional is far too mild a word to describe Dick Cheney. Delusional doesn't begin to capture the profound, transcendental one-flew-over daftness of the man."

http://select.nytimes.com/2007/01/27/opinion/27dowd.html?th&emc=th

"Has anyone in the history of the United States ever been so singularly wrong and misguided about such phenomenally important events and continued to insist he's right in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary?"


You will not see this fine editorial opinion in TulsaWorld...

Ed W

In a rare television interview, Maureen Dowd described Dick Cheney as "barking mad".  I loved that phrase and it seems appropriate.

May you live in interesting times.

I'm not surprised there is very little outrage about this on TulsaNow Forum.

To those of you brave few who do reveal your outrage, I say thank you.

Makes you wonder what kind of ethics our society has remaining.

Rico

Yes, Ax Man... there are a few things that should bring outrage and they do not...

I have noticed there was no mention of what the fellow that lives in Crawford Texas......no not George......the other fellow.. did at the Texas Gubernatorial party the other day.


Party Texas Style

Would you believe the Vice President refuses to divulge names of who works in his office?

"Wouldn't you say the public is entitled to know?"

Let me recommend a good book to everyone: State of Denial by Bob Woodward.  The book really makes me see Bush as a puppet of Dick Cheney.  The relationship between the US gov't. and Halliburton makes me sick.  "Cheney directly profits from the Iraq war and even shoots a man during his term as Vice President of the United States."  Now that's a headline you won't see on Fox News...

Really...I'd like to see your "evidence" on this one.

"While recent news coverage has speculated on the post-war reconstruction gravy train that corporations like Halliburton stand to gain from, this latest information indicates that Halliburton is already profiting from war time contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Cheney served as chief executive of Halliburton until he stepped down to become George W. Bush's running mate in the 2000 presidential race. Today he still draws compensation of up to a million dollars a year from the company, although his spokesperson denies that the White House helped the company win the contract. "
