I was appalled...It's like the media powers that be forgot what year it is, who the new boss is! I thought it was alarming...to say the least!

1. Set up for a clip so if the worse is even attempted they have a sound bite?
I don't know. Cheney saying it makes me think they got something in the back pocket planned.


My question is how many BUSHITES are around to cover it up until last moment?

5. Mainly I think to make it unthinkable
to prosecute them if something does happen cause "they were right". It's preemptive criminal defense. You can choose to put on your tin foil hat or not as to whether or not there is more than just words to this.

6. I agree
That fat fuck of a monster just wants to let Al Qaeda know that he's all for them pulling something any time they want and he'll be backing them up. Silently, of course.

He even gave hints to them on how to do it.

I thought it was vile. But, hey, I think he's vile.

7. It's hard to get ANYBODY to speak on camera for the Republicans
Media is stuck with the ones who volunteer--and they are all evil with the evil agenda all steaming them up to the size of blimps, like Cheney, Buchanan, Cliff May, Bay Buchanan and others--the only ones they can get, seriously.
