President Cheney in Hospital

“Not much to say on this one, but I just figured someone had to throw this snappy little title onto the board.

Now I'll go back to writing bathroom graffiti.”

“Poor guy.”

“Cheney's poor?”

“I thought Bush was prez.”

“Bush may hold the title but Cheney's doing the job.”

“As we reach across the aisle to extend our hands in a show of friendship and unity for the betterment of the country and the betterment of ALL, this is the type of immature jocularities we can expect? And we wonder why America is so divided? And the division is Bush’s fault? Let’s be honest here.”

“You've assumed that I'm a bitter democrat. I hate both party's equally.”

“Nigal.

It was tongue in cheek.

We used to be able to laugh about politics.

Stop the division. Laugh.”

“"....reach across the aisle..."

Is that what Dubya means when he talks of "earning political capital" and intending to "spend it"?

Over here they reckon he means to rub it in.

“That's OK RL, I was kidding too. LOL!”

“Great. Pass me a beer.”

“LOL, when he made the statement concerning political capital that he plans to spend Jon Stewart made the point that he has to pay back the advance he got during his first term.”

“has he resigned yet?”

“So if he quits does the speaker of the house move up or can Bush give it to someone?”

“I think Bush will give it to Jeb.”

“Jeorge and Jeb. Sorry, that ticket is too Bushy even for me.”

“People are already circulating rumors that Kerry will run again in 2008. Damn it. If you just had your arse handed to you by the biggest retard in the country it's time to hang up the gloves.”

“So who is in line for vice president if Cheney kicks the bucket? I don't watch political talk on tv, but has it been mentioned? Would it be in poor taste to consider who will step up if he the situation calls for it? The guy has had about 4 heart attacks. How would that whole process work?”

“The president would nominate a new VP, I assume you mean if GW is still alive?

“He might nominate Condi Rice.

No mention from the Democrats that Condi is the first black woman appointed Secy of State.”

“Condi is all over the local news. She's from Birmingham.”

“I have never been one to use someone's race, gender or religion to tout their credentials for a job. She's already advised the president on one of American history's greatest blunders, so those credentials speak volumes. If you are holding your breath for someone to go with the 'first black woman to hold the job' thing, then keep holding. Maybe you will explode first!”

“One of American history's greatest blunders? I'm afraid we won't know the answer to that question for 10+ years.”

“Condi is hot and I have pictures to prove it! She needs to ditch the haircut though. Here she is with a better style...

”

“Point taken, DH. I still don't buy into that crap about her race and gender. No reason we should still be defining people that way, if we really are the "equals" in this country...”

“Condi is Black?????????”

“Come on guys, she's a double minority! I figured the left would be praising Bush for this appointment? LOL!

"Nope. Not gonna do it...wouldn't be prudent..."”

“I think the point bacpac was making is that if this was a Dem admin and this promotion happened it would be heralded by the media as evidence of more enlightened times.

Agree with her or not, but her life achievements are pretty impressive. Combine that with what Birmingham was like when she was a pre-teen and teen and it's a good story. The hate did hold some back, not her. Sometimes the biggest part of high achievement is believing you could. She did and she did. To me, that's her story.”

“I bet she has a few stained dresses.”

“Hey, hotness crosses all political boundaries. A BBW is a BBW weather demo or prepub.”

“bbw?”

“Beautiful black woman.”

“So, that's what Bacpac fancies himself as? No wonder he's such a hit in all the rest areas and truckstops...”

“"Big Beautiful Women" is the definiton as used in the classifieds.



.......not that I use the classifieds or anything.”

“Yeah, he's a real lot lizard...”

“She reminds me too much of Jim Carrey in The Mask.”

“I wonder if his pacemaker is made in China?”

“No, he's on the governmental health plan so he's got the best money can buy. Probably German or Swedish...hey I wonder if it's a Swiss Army pace maker?

That guys got more by passes than Atlanta!”

“He rarely speaks in public and closely guards his privacy. But there's a growing consensus in America that it's Dick Cheney who calls the shots at the White House, on everything from the war in Iraq to climate change policy.

Is this the real president of the United States?

Zoom down on Washington via Google Earth and you get an extraordinary eagle-eyed view of the world's greatest powerhouse. There's the White House and its West Wing. There's the spot where they put the national Christmas tree festooned with lights. Sweeping south-east across the Potomac you soar above the pentagon of the Pentagon; then back up a bit north and you can sit for hours counting the tiles on the roof of the Lincoln memorial. But there is one thing you can't do. If you scroll over the site of the vice-president's official residence, all you will see, mysteriously, is a blurry fuzz.

The 46th vice-president of the US, Dick Cheney, has a fondness for remaining invisible. It doesn't matter whether it's Google Earth or a bank of television cameras, he won't play ball.

“Ok, I give up. Why would that scare me?”

“his snarling face alone scares the snot out of me

who is really calling the shots? the guy who was elected or the unelectable pit bull?

if its ok for the vp to call the shots, youre gonna love it when hillary is elected and bubba once again runs the country!”

“Actually, she called the shots when bubba was in office, so I guess they'll play switchem.

OK, so you don't like Cheney, so what difference does it make to you if his house shows up on satellite photos. I don't see why you would care.

I'm guessing he had nothing to do with it anyway. But since it angers you so much, I'd have to say that's a nice benefit.
