Cheney--His Heart Goes On

http://www.theeagleonline.com/article/2014/03/dick-cheney-denies-war-criminal-allegations-at-kpu-event

Former Vice President Dick Cheney refuted accusations that he is a war criminal during his speech to students and members of the AU community in Bender Arena on March 28. The Kennedy Political Union hosted Cheney as part of a stream of speakers coming to campus.

“The accusations are not true,” Cheney said.


I would suggest that if you reach a place in life when you have to deny out loud to an audience you are not a war criminal.

You are.

had he been tried, convicted and incarcerated in a U.S. prison or at Gitmo.

His heart would have given out when he didn't get to sleep in a comfy bed, don his silk pjs, wrap himself up in his robe and slippers, be served a hot breakfast, take a hot shower, sit and read the paper while taking a dump, etc.......

He wouldn't go to Vietnam but had no problem sending thousands of Americans to their deaths for no reason in Iraq.

I suspect when the end times come he will be going to a very warm place.

But the fact that he has to deny he is one suggests strongly he knows he is one.

Cheney's heart transplants - and all his health care - was paid for by the citizens of the United States. Isn't this what is known as Socialized Medicine? The same applies to all politicians who receive Cadillac health insurance coverage, paid for by the people. So again, GOP needs to shut up regarding "socialized medicine".
