Odds that Cheney's heart explodes like a baked potato before he leaves office?
I'm saying.....4 to 1.

Before his little tirade with Leslie...I would've put it at 8 to 1. Which is pretty high really. Those of us without heart conditions...our odds would be like 50,000 to 1.


I've got a steak dinner riding on it. I made the bet with my Republic Father in 2000 when Tweedle-Dum and Tweedle-Evil were stolen into office.

CMON BAKED POTATO!!!!

32. Then Dick can join Kenny
on an island somewhere. I'm cynical enough to wonder whether Kenny really died and instead is holed up in an island compound. Call it the BFEE Retirement Community.

2. Right. And that was with Blitzer. Good thing for Cheney he wasn't
Edited on Fri Jan-26-07 01:09 AM by Old Crusoe
interviewed by Christianne Amanpour or Amy Goodman.

They'd scallop his taters right pronto.

3. Dick Cheney doesn't blink. They did this bit on the Colbert report...
unlike like Nancy who blinks a little too much, Cheney never blinked. Dumbshit looked to blink at a normal rate.

There was a glitch in his software.

7. Hey...I live in Colorado...
We love our beef here. Stock show still the biggest draw in Denver every year.

To go without steak, for me, life wouldn't be worth living.

Though I have several friends that are vegetarians and respect that as well (trying to put the kibosh on any flame fest ensuing from our vegetarian friends...love ya guys).

9. Okay, but if he *does* die in office, the odds are 1 in 4 that by the next week...
....he's in Tahiti sipping mai-tais with Ken Lay. It would be just so much like that Lex Luthor of a human being to fuck up the country and leave a helpless child like Dubya behind to take the rap.

22. Ha! Like Cheney has a heart.
He had that replaced with a nuclear-powered turbopump years ago. The supposed heart attacks he's had have just been cover for refueling and maintenance checks.
