What does Cheney really do? Am racking my brain here
Sure, he's the VP, but what does he DO?

He's popped in once ir twice to break the vote in the Senate.

He "visits" in town hall forums and lingers on TV press shows, making snide remarks of reassurance and safety.

He discounts all who oppose the PNAC plan by speaking in a passive-cruel fatherly tone of voice that what's been reported is absolutely not true.

He shoots friends.

He goes to Wyoming and the doctor.

He has a bunker.

And for the most part over tha last six years, he is out of sight and sound bite unless necessary to "build the base" to help secure and further the PNAC "get rich quicker" plan.


So.....

What does Cheney REALLY do as VP?

1. The bad cop: To say things they don't want the monkey to say...

Evil, wicked lies, Cheney makes sure that no one will ever call him on any of it....and to have heart attacks...A marvel on how they keep these rich fascist fuckers alive.

Shit, that old Reagan fuck, Schultz, is still alive and kicking & spewing out fascist bullshit...and let's not forget that other fascist old dinosaur criminal, Hank Kissinger...Will he EVER fucking die?

David Rockefeller ---Pure evil

Cheney is a wannabe into their club.

Cheney will achieve this and then die (we hope) and that's what keeps his pathetic old ticker going. To offer & enjoy the torture & the pain of others. He lives for it.

Heinrich Himmler, Cheney's Guru!

13. I always viewed Cheney more as a Goering type. At the end
of the day, Himmler was actually quite capable and a true devotee to Hitler.

I think Cheney sees Bush as a means to an end. He doesn't worship Bush at all, but rather uses him like a puppet.

7. He has his hand up Bush's ass......
operating the puppet. That's a full time job in itself. Other than that, he just moves from undisclosed location to undisclosed location which, when you think of it, is quite difficult when you have your hand up a monkey's ass.

14. I always thought he ran the county as President. and does this
sends Bush out to do the cheer leading. Trouble is Bush now thinks he also can do it. I once read that his wife was going to get all the 'liberals' out of teaching in college and if you look you will see that has been going on some what. Black list?

By this time I would think everyone who has been paying attention knows that the sociopathic punk is only a puppet.

20. What does Bush do?
Cheney's running everything. Bush does what the VP's used to do - show up at photo-ops, funerals, and state dinners.
