That SOB Cheney - never changed. So arrogant in the "60 Minutes"

interview and... I may have missed it but did not hear him at least thanking the family of the donor of his new heart.

Thank you, Sanjay Gupta for at least referring him at the end as Darth Vader. Cheney did not even pretend to ask "huh?"

And, of course, never a word about the man from the street who would have long been dead by now, without the access to all the medical marvels that Cheney had.

Can you imagine the destruction to his psyche caused by all the hatred and negativity directed toward him from all over the world?
He may not know it affects him, but it certainly does.
And his karma is not good... He will pay...

I'm afraid he'll die confident that he did the right thing. Not that it matters now.

He is a very lucky man to be born in a time when corruption and greed are the rule in D.C.

and made him apologize. Why should he thank anyone? The f*ing peon owed him that heart.

Dick Cheney is naked evil. He is not the least bit banal. He is just dripping, oozing evil.

rights, arrested and taken to the nearest jail for processing. Being that he has accumulated so much money mostly blood money, he could probably bail himself out while he awaited trial on charges of war crimes, lying the US into war, torture, which he has not just admitted to but boasted about, shown no remorse for and demonstrated the pathological nature of his psyche.

Why he is being interviewed is beyond me. His approval ratings MAY be as low as Congress' and if we were a country that respected the rule of law, he would have been convicted of all of his crimes long ago and we would not be subjected to the constant reminder of what evil morons took control of this country in 2000.

The only positive thing about his survival is that he may yet live to be held accountable for his crimes against humanity.
