Right on que? Cheney has health problem days before Libby jury verdict is in...
If Libby is guilty, many believe Cheney will be next for Fitzgerald to investigate. This health problem will be the perfect excuse for Cheney to resign, diverting attention away from the misadminstration.

And if Libby is found innocent, Cheney can stay on and treat the ailment with blood thinners.

Seems a bit too convenient to me.

5. it was fake. My mom had bloodclots and had to spend weeks in the hospital
she certainly didn't go back to work the same day...the docs rushed her admittance to the hospital as if any little tiny jar could kill her



I call BS

8. so does that mean every case is identical to your mom's?
My mother-in-law had a DVT and they treated her exactly as dicky boy was treated...blood thinners. Here's an article on current treatments for DVT:

7. I think they made an educated guess.
They just wanted the health issue to be in the news before the verdict came back. And with Cheney out of the country prior to, it would have been easy enough to back track and say the condition developed while he was on the trip, but nothing was said so that he could finish and return home.

9. Cheney is ill...
...because he is pure evil--a psychopath--and he's rotting from the inside out.

One cannot live a life, clenched up in contempt and selfishness--without
health consequences.

Psychopaths seem to skate through life. However, it takes a boatload
of physical and emotional energy to repress the self loathing they
feel.

A 60-year old man's emotional defenses aren't as sharp and efficient at burying
white-hot self-hatred. That's why most psychopaths slow down in their elderly
years. They literally don't have energy required to cork the malaise
of rot that has built up in their system.

People like Cheney, live their lives on a treadmill--running away from themselves.
Hurting others, causing suffering and manipulating people, provides "supply" that
fuels that treadmill. Pretty soon, they just can't keep up--and the body wears
down.

See Dick run. Run Dick run.

10. JUST RELEASED: Internal memo from KKKarl Rove:
OK, guys. The verdict is in. Damage control level 1 now in action.

Dick's health will deteriorate rapidly, he will be forced to step down on doctor's orders.

Bush will appoint new VP.

Scoot will be pardoned before Bush leaves office.

Someone call the decorators for Condi's new office.

That is all.
