Cheney on Kerry and nukes: "You have to get your mind around that concept"
Seriously, what is WRONG with this sick fuck? I'm past the point of even being able to make jokes about this shit, it's just textbook psychosis.

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/20/politics/campaign/20cheney.html?ex=1256011200&en=e2241c958453e05c&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt



"The biggest threat we face now as a nation,'' he said, "is the possibility of terrorists' ending up in the middle of one of our cities with deadlier weapons than have ever before been used against us - biological agents or a nuclear weapon or a chemical weapon of some kind - to be able to threaten the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans.''

"You have to get your mind around that concept," he added.

Mr. Cheney, seated on a stool at a forum in Carroll, Ohio, went on to list steps President Bush had taken, including the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, to protect the country and diminish terrorism abroad. He then questioned Mr. Kerry's judgment and strength.

"John Kerry would lead you to believe he has the same kind of view that George Bush has, that he would be tough and aggressive," Mr. Cheney said. "I don't believe it. I don't think there's any evidence to support the proposition that he would, in fact, do it."

5. Isn't a threat like this an act of terrorism?
According to the American Heritage dictionary, the definition of terrorism is:
"The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons."


Crashcart O'Sneer's threat that if Kerry's elected, terrorists will nuke cities fits this definition of terrorism; therefore, that makes Cheney a terrorist.

6. Idiots. Have these people never heard of retribution?
Bush made it MORE likely that this will occur in the US. They seem to forget that we're talking about fricking TERRORISTS who are using Bush's invasion of Iraq as the latest excuse to hate America and Americans.

God, these people are dense. Anyone who buys this crap is similarly dense, if not more so.

7. If there is such an attack while this Administration is in power
it would be proof positive that they have made us less safe. That they are unable to protect us and that as long as they are in power we will have that threat to look forward to every single day of our lives. We must get this pre-emtive line of reasoning out into the Media or three days before the election San Francisco will be hit with a dirty bomb or some other Liberal haven will be attacked in some manner. They want the rallying around the pResident effect and will get it unless we can pre-empt this rational.
