Rogue Diva of Doom (Dick Cheney)

“I think the president should be doing what he thinks is best as commander in chief,” Gingrich said flatly. Now, however, Gingrich backs Dick Cheney when he asserts that President Obama has made America less safe.

Asked by Bob Schieffer on Sunday how America could torture when it made a mockery of our ideals, Cheney blithely gave an answer that surely would have been labeled treasonous by Rush Limbaugh, if a Democratic ex-vice president had said it about a Republican president.

“Well, then you’d have to say that, in effect, we’re prepared to sacrifice American lives rather than run an intelligent interrogation program that would provide us the information we need to protect America,” Doomsday Dick said.

Cheney has replaced Sarah Palin as Rogue Diva. Just as Jeb Bush and other Republicans are trying to get kinder and gentler, Cheney has popped out of his dungeon, scary organ music blaring, to carry on his nasty campaign of fear and loathing.

The man who never talked is now the man who won’t shut up. The man who wouldn’t list his office in the federal jobs directory, who had the vice president’s residence blocked on Google Earth, who went to the Supreme Court to keep from revealing which energy executives helped him write the nation’s energy policy, is now endlessly yelping about how President Obama is holding back documents that should be made public.

Cheney, who had five deferments himself to get out of going to Vietnam, would rather follow a blowhard entertainer who has had three divorces and a drug problem (who also avoided Vietnam) than a four-star general who spent his life serving his country.

This publicity is WAY out of character and makes me think he is truly very scared and therefore going on the offensive.

It's almost sad in a pathetic kind of way....:P

Prolonged Worrying has a laxative effect

it says at the bottom "Signed Epstein's Mother"

"Rogue Diva of Doom!"

Great article! It's good that a lot of people (not just us) are suddenly noticing Cheney's sudden and pronounced prominence within recent weeks, as well as the abject hypocrisy of the wingnuts in their criticism of Obama in contrast to how they addressed criticism of Bush, particularly by Al Gore in 2002. Cheney almost seems to be hoping (pining?) for a terrorist attack just so that he can prove Obama's approach to combating terrorism is wrong and his and Bush's (well his, anyway) approach was right- even though none of what they did post-9/11 would've actually been necessary to possibly prevent it from happening AFAIK. He is a sick, ghoulish man and the sooner he is locked up for the rest of his natural life the better our country will be.

Oh yeah, cheney will get Medieval on your ass.

Bottom Line..
"But with W., “Back Seat” — Cheney’s Secret Service name in the Ford administration — clambered up front. Then he totaled the car. And no amount of yapping on TV is going to change that when history is written."

Imagine all the bushes and cheneys reading this:)
