The Cheney family on the floor of the House

[Bayard]

Former VP Cheney accompanied his daughter today. The only rethuglicans there.

[redstatebluegirl]

1. You know the GOP members are more afraid of Darth Cheney

than the orange one.

[barbtries]

9. i wish.

i don't agree though. not anymore.

[PatSeg]

33. I don't think so either

Cheney is much too yesterday to be considered relevant today.

[Pantagruel]

2. Darth is concerned

about the survival of his beloved GOP once Trump has finished trashing it.

[True Blue American]

16. Cheney said it was a shame

Republicans did not have better leaders!

[Pinback]

32. "Back in my day, we were better at hiding the corruption!" (nt)

[BaronChocula]

34. On the nose!

"Today's Republicans lack the sophistication to finish pulling off the coup we started."

[Mr. Ected]

3. For one day and one day only I suspend all my hatred for that man

Overthrowing Trumpist fascism is the primary goal today. We can battle over policy, politics and everything else once our democracy is preserved. Any enemy of Trump is a friend of mine....today.

[PortTack]

15. EXACTLY! The gqp desperately needs public shaming! He's a good one to do it

What are krappy kevin and the likes of jordan and the other insurrectionists gonna say? We don’t agree?

[dem4decades]

18. Agreed

Just goes to show how far into the dark side the Republicans have gone when Darth Vader isn't dark enough.

[Maru Kitteh]

28. +1 nt

[MyMission]

29. The enemy of my enemy is my friend

Until we get rid of "our" enemy.
Not just today. But hopefully soon.

[uponit7771]

31. +1

[Srkdqltr]

4. Why is he there and what will he say and does the GOP care?

[getagrip_already]

25. Congress is not in session this week....

It's set aside as a district work period. So nobody is there except them.

[Srkdqltr]

26. So why are we so happy he is there and is the point? Why are people saying that they appreciate him

[getagrip_already]

35. that is above the capabilities of my vessel.....

I dare not go there...

[leftstreet]

5. Maybe they're going to finally investigate Cheney for war crimes?

oh well...

[Solly Mack]

6. No shit.

[barbtries]

7. yuck.

to think that snake is standing for democracy at this late date. shudder

[C Moon]

23. We must be in a very bad place if Cheney is standing up for the constitution.

[PJMcK]

8. Fuck Dick Cheney

He's a war criminal and a disgusting human being.

I don't care that his daughter is standing up for our country. Good for her. The rest of her policies suck.

Her father famously told a congressman to go fuck himself on the floor of the House. That says everything we need to know about that criminal. He simply wants to maintain the status quo since that's how he makes his money. He doesn't give a dman about democracy. Want proof? Look at the election in Florida in 2000. Look at his record as Vice President. He's almost as big a problem as Trump.

[Ohio Joe]

11. +1

Well said

[bahboo]

14. I'm with you...fuck that murderer...

[FoxNewsSucks]

30. Agreed. Fuck him, his family, and his conspirators.

I'm sick of seeing "good democrats" praising him and his spawn.

The tRump crazies are simply in the way of the entrenched establishment that the Cheney cabal controls. They prefer to work "in the shadows, if you will". They are seeing the fascists use the loons to take control. That's all there is to it.

They are coincidentally on the same side as us on this one single issue and when it's resolved, they'll resume stabing everyone else in the back.

[Takket]

10. When the guy who lied to get us into a war for oil...

That killed thousands of troops, hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, and cost taxpayers trillions of dollars…

Is one of the only rethugs to show up for this… you know that party is beyond saving and redemption.

[Ocelot II]

12. Yup. When Dick Cheney starts looking like a *good* GOPer, relatively speaking,

you know the Republican Party is no longer a political party, even a shitty one, but just a dead-ender personality cult populated by cowards, sycophants and all-around shitty people. It's tough to be shittier than Dick Cheney, but they've managed to do it.

[2naSalit]

21. +1

[Bev54]

13. I would rather Dick Cheney stayed away from all of this, he killed a lot of Americans

sending them to war based on lies. The fact that they were the only ones does however, prove how bloody chicken shit the GOP are. Every fucking one of them.

[PortTack]

19. It's not how we perceive it that is important, it's how the gqp do

True not all will care, but I guarantee little lindsey, turtle and the others are squirming. And how are they going to respond? It makes them look smaller and weaker

[tishaLA]

17. I'll never forgive the current repub party

for making the Cheneys and Karl Rove look good in comparison.

[Traildogbob]

24. Right!

I heard Karl Rove, an original overthrow Obama scammer, taking it to these repubs. But then you have the Lindsay Graham comment after Biden speech. Trump needs to be force fed Ivermectin to kill all the parasites up his ass. That is the only way to destroy this faction of GQP. Destroy all his parasitic army of treasonous Liars. Totally eliminate every last one of them, maybe even deport them all to there homeland. Putin’s theme Park. Or the Saudi sand box.

[Me.]

20. I Have Long Thought Cheney Would Make His Presence Felt

can't imagine he was going to let his daughter stand alone. I've also though he would wreak his revenge somehow. He is, after all, Dick Cheney.

[Enoki33]

22. Agree Dick Cheney is a despicable person

and war criminal. At this moment in our history when our country faces the very real threat of losing it's democracy to a despotic carnival barker and corrupted political party, we may need to reconsider help once beyond acceptable. It is much more difficult for the GOP traitors and propagandists to smear any truths the likes of Cheney might say in support of his country's democracy. Just a thought prompted by the gravity of the situation.

[gab13by13]

27. Going to have to fumigate the floor of the House,

to get the sulfur smell out.

I got to walk on the House floor, Jack Murtha gave me a tour. He would have made great House whip. They killed him, I mean he died having routine gall bladder surgery, someone nicked an artery. He was a marine vet opposed to the Iraq war, Cheney's worst nightmare. Dick Cheney.
