So, if you were portfolio manager for Cheney's blind trust,

[Ilsa]

where would you (perhaps maliciously) invest his money? I'm thinking alternative, green energy sources, and a bicycle company.

1. I'd give it all away to the poor,

and then tell Uncle Dickbird that it is ok that he is now broke, because, his reward will be in heaven.

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. Or say "Hey! Look! It trickled down!"

"Well I'll be damned, but those tax cuts DID help the poor! To the tune of your portfolio you evil clown!"

[ComerPerro]

3. Wow, that is hilarious

Great line.

"Look, Mr. Cheney! Trickle-down economics really DOES work!"

[Rabrrrrrr]

6. Thanks!

an inspired moment.

4. This is exactly the point.

Blind trusts are not "blind." The person making the decisions makes the decisions that the beneficiary wants.

5. You're absolutely right,

they are not blind. Who would want to be on the receiving end of a VEEP's threats when he doesn't see his portfolio's net worth increasing, tracking right along with Halliburton, et al stock?
