Cheney: U.S. must show 'stomach' to win in Iraq (REUTERS)
WASHINGTON, Jan 14 (Reuters) - Vice President Dick Cheney said on Sunday the United States must show it has the "stomach" to win in Iraq or it will confirm al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden's view that Americans can be pressured to leave.

That ZELNORM ad with the women showing their stomachs popped into my mind when I read this headline.



Would make an interesting video parody, no?

1. Me: The U.S. must show it has the stomach to impeach Dick&Bush.
Followed by trial and conviction for high crimes & misdemeanors. And, hopefully, a trip to the Hague in appropriate & fashionable orange.

Then my stomach will feel much better than it does every time I even think of those two criminals.

3. You know, I'm getting really fucking sick of those two chickenhawks in the WH...
...calling the majority of the nation spineless cowards.

And no matter how you look at it, that's what they are doing every single time they say something like this.

8. Yep, he's telling the grieving mothers and
fathers and wives that they don't have guts. That's exactly what he's saying. The ultimate in "blame the victim" mentality. I call that emotional terrorism. Dick Cheney is a fucking terrorist.
