Would Cheney make your top ten list of the most evil men in history?

[Cyrano]

Mussolini, Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot are no-brainers. But given a few thousand years of major league villains, from Attila, to Caligula, to Og the Impaler, to so many others, do you think Cheney would make the list?

[Karenca]

1. YES! NT

[The Deacon]

2. He holds

1 of the Top 5 spots on my list - beat out only by Hitler, Stalin, Mao & Pol Pot.

3. Easily. In a heartbeat (so to speak)

The plans and machinations of this evil man have already killed hundreds of thousands of innocents.

Worse yet, he's contributing to the destruction of an ideal - democratic government dedicated to the betterment of all.

Diplomacy, International agreements and protections for the weak and opressed are nearly gone.

The oligocracy set in place mostly by this man will end up destroying many more all over the world.

Corporations have taken the place of elected officials and I can see no constraint on their power as long as money can be made.

And he's not done yet.

[Caution]

4. Not even close.

I don't like the guy but gimme a break. He isn't anywhere near making that list.

5. Evil, funny word

No, not evil. Just another in the long line of people using the tools of civilization to do what civilization does. That's domestication, subjugation, and destroy diversity. There have been plenty like Cheney before, there will be plenty like him after. His name just happens to be Cheney, in 2006 America. Other than that, their brains work the same way.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeviiillllll.

6. No...but he would make my "Top 25" list....

[Warpy]

7. As corrupt and vile a human being Cheney is, he pales

against Torquemada, Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin, Genghis Khan, and all the other righteous monsters whose names will shriek murder through history.

8. Well, sad to say, he'd not done yet. And he has access to nuclear weapons.
