VIDEO: Dick Cheney drops Purple Heart Medal. Asshole.

[TOOLZ]

IRONY: Warhawk Dick Cheney, who had "other priorities" during Vietnam, who helped ride the tidal wave of redneck backlash against John Kerry for one of his Purple Heart medals not having been for a bloody enough war wound -- Dick himself can't even hold a Purple Heart as he pins it to some poor soul that had to learn the hard way that serving the Neo-Cons gets you wounded (if alive) with a lifetime of frustration at the VA hospitals, and some insincere tribute at a photo op where the Vice President drops your medal on the ground.

Is dropping someone else's medal as bad as throwing a medal you earned?

1. Maybe it burned his flesh. n/t

3. I was thinking the same thing...

Cheney is shameless!

11. Do Purple Hearts have crosses on them?

:evilgrin:

[whistle]

2. You mean Dick Cheney threw his purple heart away...

[Lifelong Protester]

4. Maybe if he had some familiarity with a UNIFORM

he might know how to pin something ON IT.

5. Could Dick Cheney be.....HUMAN?

I thought he was a cyborg, but cyborgs don't make motor skills errors like that. Asshole?...not so much. I say it's more that he never served and so doesn't know shit about how to pin medals on soldiers. So, maybe because of that, he is an asshole. Afterall, he's the asshole that sent those kids off to the meat grinder in the first place so his company could make a buck.

6. If he stabs himself with the pin, he'll demand a purple heart.

Actually his heart is not purple. It's some kind of grayish metal, zirconium I think.

7. You mean, he didn't just apply a purple bandaid to the soldier?

:shrug:

8. Wait... CHENEY HAS A HEART?!

[Stang8az28]

9. yes...but

it is not red like yours our mine, but black, and it pumps not blood, but a thick black viscous liquid that burns on contact and causes rectal bleeding if accidentally ingested.

10. Hi Stang8az28!!

12. Slippery is

as Slippery does, Slipped smack dab out of his slippery fricking hands, the slippery sidewinder. Not only is he slippery, he's "Snail Trail Slippery". What an asshole, has no respect, What a pecker head.
