Are Cheney's illnesses getting serious enough for him to resign?

[kentuck]

In the last week week or so, there have been a couple of reports of medical problems from the Vice-President's office. Just how serious are these problems? Will he be stepping down in the near future? Like, right before the indictments come down from Fitzgerald?

(The report of an enlarged rectum diagnosis have not been verified, although the doctor did say he was a "big asshole"):)

1. I'm not sure

But I think his criminality is.

[GetTheRightVote]

2. It must be a cover since he does not wish to be impeached

and surely this would happen with his link to the Rove legal problems.

:kick:

19. The Halliburton debacle is being looked into

now more than before. Would he dare claim illness for sympathy?

[ThoughtCriminal]

3. Bush may need Cheney

For the same reason Nixon needed Agnew. Nobody even dared to think about impeachment until Ford replaced Spiro.:scared:

4. Watch. McCain to the rescue after Cheney resigns.

9. oh now that just made me sick

I was wondering this morning if the entire wh misadministration is thrown in jail, will this country descend into civil war? Would special elections be called? Who from the democratic party would have enough political power to rise up and lead the country? I love the thought of getting rid of chimpy and crew, but looking at the scene in Iraq, would the in fighting here become the same as there (leaving out the blood bath that is occuring and just looking at the political arena)

20. I say that they would put Frist in as VP. To keep the Fundies in line.

[democrat in Tallahassee]

5. Yeah so Jeb can step in as VP. Watch for it,

6. Who goes into the hospital for a physical exam?

11. only the very richest and the very poorest eom

7. Major League. Big time. A**hole, that is.

Couldn't resist. Sorry.

[dajoki]

16. good one!! LOL

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

8. his excessive puking is because he is getting sick

with fear. Scooter and Turd Blossom are just a heartbeat away from him and chimpy. Even if Old Heartless resigns, he can still be tried for war crimes. I would prefer the firing squad for him, but anyway the planet can get rid of his evil self will be fine with me.

[LiberalEsto]

10. He's puking because he's pregnant

with Elvis's alien baby

:evilgrin:

[WhiteTara]

14. LOL

I couldn't think of any better candidates for his impregnator so elvis it is

[wakemeupwhenitsover]

12. My worst nightmare is if he steps down. n/t

[burrowowl]

17. If he resigns

then he won't need to be impeached to be prosecuted. He can be charged directly.

[wakemeupwhenitsover]

18. I worry that dumbya will pick

a veep that would be more electable. That would give the veep an inside track in '08. cheney's poll numbers among independants & moderate repubs is abysmall. He'd never get elected pres. Plus all his ailments.

While I love the idea of cheney being indicted I think he's too smart to get his hands dirty. Someone else did the work for him & he's hiding behind them.

So, what I see is a fat chance cheney being prosecuted or some other repug getting the inside track,

[leesa]

13. Are they real? Or are they cons to allow him to hide and commit his crimes

in peace?

[MoonRiver]

15. Lol, that's what happens when you're chock full of shit!

And Cheney's arse could serve as a one manned fertilizing machine. :D
