Dick Cheney: A Voice Of Reason Among Vipers And Fools!

by John W. Lillpop

http://www.postchronicle.com/commentary/article_212276611.shtml

Granted, Dick Cheney is not a cool rock-star dude who oozes charisma and charm from every pore of his being.

Rather, he is a balding, bespectacled, overweight, 60-something multi-millionaire who just happens to be very conservative.

Besides being photographically and PC challenged, Dick Cheney has the heart of a lion-a very, very sick lion!

Above all else, Dick Cheney is a dedicated American patriot who sincerely gives a damn about America and the future of our great nation.

He has the guts and fortitude to 'tell it exactly like it is," which he does with gusto when the subject is Barack Obama's idiotic pandering to Muslim terrorists.

As reported at politico.com, in part, Cheney was in firing on all cylinders in recent comments about our befuddled and confused president:

"Former Vice President Dick Cheney accused President Barack Obama on Tuesday of "trying to pretend we are not at war" with terrorists, pointing to the White House response to the attempted sky bombing as reflecting a pattern that includes banishing the term "war on terror" and attempting to close the Guantanamo Bay detention center.

"We are at war and when President Obama pretends we aren't, it makes us less safe," Cheney said in a statement to POLITICO.

"Why doesn't he want to admit we're at war? It doesn't fit with the view of the world he brought with him to the Oval Office. It doesn't fit with what seems to be the goal of his presidency - social transformation - the restructuring of American society."

Hooray for Dick Cheney for having the cajones to speak truth.

His words are like mana from heaven in an era dominated by vipers and fools.

Please continue to speak out, Mr. Vice President!

9. Can somebody recommend a punch line?

Here is my shot:

Please continue to speak out loud, Mr. Vice President...except when you need to plead the fifth.

10. If America = Global Power

Then yeah, he gives a damn.

If America has anything to do with self rule and opportunity, equality and justice for all, well, then not so much.

20. Wow, that pizza delivery was fast!

Nice work, mods! And with extra cheese too!

[CJCRANE]

17. Except Cheney hid in a bunker for most of the Bush era.

Cheney left his puppet boy out in the open on 9/11 while he was in a secure bunker running the show (and I do mean "show").

[Berry Cool]

13. No, Dick Cheney does not "ooze charisma and charm from every pore of his being."

What he oozes from every pore of his being is...well, too disgusting to relate here.

[dalaigh lllama]

14. I first read the guy's name as "John Lollipop"

would that be a.k.a. "Sucker"?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

18. Same here...

...I thought "John Lollipop sounds like a perfect name for a satirical Cheney booster."

Then I took another look and saw that it wasn't his name.

Then I took ANOTHER look and saw it wasn't satire.

Then I had to stop looking.

:rofl:
