Republican. His lies still work very well. There's no good reason for him to stop, is there?

...and sometimes it is just jaw dropping.

I think the idea is to accuse the other guy of your own weakness, so that it gets shrugged off as a "both sides" thing.

And the fucking "liberal" media eats it up and lets assholes like Cheney still have a voice as an "expert." The only expertise he has is destroying shit.

The amounts of urea and ammonia that will be deposited there is going to overwhelm any natural bio-remediation.

Now, I'm not a fan of asparagus, but I would eat a plateful to go visit him after he kicks.

From the article:

"If you had somebody as president who wanted to take America down, who wanted to fundamentally weaken our position in the world and reduce our capacity to influence events, turn our back on our allies and encourage our adversaries, it would look exactly like what Barack Obama's doing," Cheney said.

For eight long years that's exactly what I thought of what the Cheney/Bush administration was doing.

Cheney/Bush did very well for their allies. It's just that those allies were at odds with the well-being of America's economy.

Your crying is music to our ears. Anytime you whine about somebody, that's a good sign.
