"Cheney's Deadly Last Throes"-John Nichols-The Nation
"Vice President Dick Cheney, who predicted on the eve of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, that Americans would be "greeted as liberators," has in recent weeks been peddling a new line of spin.

If Cheney was not in charge of U.S. foreign policy, he could be dismissed as a ranting lunatic. But, because of his title, and because the former Secretary of Defense is the dominant player in the Bush administration when it comes to military policy, Cheney has to be taken seriously -- as seriously, that is, as his bizarro worldview permits..." http://www.thenation.com/blogs/thebeat?bid=1&pid=9968

1. Cheney should rot in a prison cell.
And I'm only saying that because what I'd really like to say about that vile bastard would get this post deleted by the mods.

2. Cheney wants to either kill us or put us all in prison cells
It's him or us. Fitzgerald is our only hope, and even he's not a good bet.

4. There's still Mother Nature and Father Time
The man has had four (maybe five) heart attacks. He's on borrowed time as it is. I know it sounds bad to say, but I almost wish for the good of all humanity that he would just finally keel over and we could be rid of him at last.

Maybe he's like shriveled up old Emperor Palpatine and the dark Force energy is what's keeping him going?
