Is Dick Cheney dead?

[MichiganVote]

[SmokingJacket]

1. That would quite the topper, wouldn't it?

Crazy days...

[givemebackmycountry]

2. No...but BUSH is. At least politically.

[Pharlo]

32. Cheney knows this as well, and that's why he's hunkered down in an

undislosed location writing his inauguration speech

[Inland]

3. I'm going to hold my tongue.

[MichiganVote]

33. "Dick Cheney can be Vice President" George Bush, 2004

Can he?

[graywarrior]

4. I guess that's what you could call it.

[whistle]

5. Seems like it....maybe just working in the underground shelters

...Colorado.

[smirkymonkey]

6. We can only hope.

[rzemanfl]

7. I'm not dancing, so I guess not. n/t

[chomskysright]

50. ON THAT WHITE ASS CRACKER'S TOMBSTONE....

[stevedeshazer]

8. In a manner of speaking, yes. n/t

[LittleClarkie]

9. Like Darth would be much of a comfort

I don't think he even knows how.

[Boomer]

10. I'm beginning to wonder

Didn't he go up to the Northwest for some medical tests a week or so ago?

And then Bush unexpectedly went to the Northwest during his vacation.

Now, the government seems to be paralyzed by incompetence over NO, and Cheney is a no-show in what little government response can be seen. So, yeah, I can't help but wonder if the puppet has lost it's puppeteer.

[etherealtruth]

16. Boomer ... I didn't make the links you did

I am sure you are correct ...at very least Cheney is incapacitated.

[SamBass]

56. Incapacitated?

For one sweet minute there, I thought you meant "decapitated."

Oh well, we can only dream.

[chomskysright]

51. Crashcart Cheney has Crashed? awwwwwwwwwwww

[OneTwentyoNine]

11. Nah,probably over at Halliburton rolling around naked.....

on piles and piles of cash from looting Iraq and rip-off pump prices. Most likely the only way Oil Dick can get a real woody anymore....

[marbuc]

13. Very bad mental image

must seek therapy, thanks alot! ;)

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

66. I'll second that...

EWWWW!!!

[howmad1]

44. And probably scheming to figure a way for

Halliburton to make billions on rebuilding Ira.... oooops, New Orleans. }(

[Raster]

12. God I hope so.

[benburch]

14. We couldn't get that lucky. nt

[whalerider55]

15. sheesh

how can you tell? i mean, he already looks like he's satan's roommate.

whalerider

[Beelzebud]

17. I fucking hope so.

[aquart]

18. Not yet.

Bush would announce it in a second to get the sympathy for his administration.

But the Republicans should really be thinking about the next Veep. Because the way things are going, they may want to move George out in a hurry and Hastert just shot himself in the foot about rebuilding NO. So, think Frist will insist on being Veep? So he can be Pres without an election? I don't think George will go for it.

McCain has certainly done his time. But George won't go for it.

Who do you think George will allow to be Veep?

[uppityperson]

19. Oh I thought you had good news for today.

[MichiganVote]

23. Well actually I was looking for some myself. LOL

[xray s]

20. Cheney is licking his chops writing up the contracts for halliburton

they are going to get RICH on this thing.

[villager]

21. his soul? Sure. For years.

n/t

[Canuckistanian]

22. Maybe it's like the last days of Stalin...

Stalin was left to die by himself and no-one went into his room to find out how he was because they were so paranoid and scared of what he might do to them.

[LisaL]

24. Nobody have seen him in how long now?

Where in the world is Dick?

[MichiganVote]

26. Been over a week. Maybe we should find him and camp out

with a few of our questions. Like, 'why are you a worthless bag of wind?'

[GreenPartyVoter]

34. It makes you wonder....

25. my dog has an ass worm that I named Dick Cheney

and no it's not dead.

[chomskysright]

53. ....dragging his ass around on the carpet, humiliatin' style, I bet....

[SledDriver]

27. Probably just keeping a low profile.

Just like Rove is.

They KNOW * is going down soon and it will be their turn.
He takes the fall and they get the WH.

[MichiganVote]

28. Rummy the dummy too. Putting out all the new faces the last few days

Like we're stupid enough to buy that bullshit.

[applegrove]

29. No. Let's get back to Katrina.

[npincus]

30. wishful thinking

[dflprincess]

31. I hope so

It would make me feel better about impeaching Bush... Not that I don't want to see him impeached (indicted and doing the perp walk would be better), but even if we get rid of him we're still stuck with Cheney and the rest of the cabinet.

[mmonk]

35. He's in an undisclosed location

[mtnester]

36. In undisclosed condition

[MichiganVote]

37. So he's a mummy?

38. Hopefully, yes? Please say it's yes.

[MichiganVote]

43. Wish I could

[TheCowsCameHome]

39. He looks great for a man of 105

[chomskysright]

54. ..he smirked himself to death....

[LibDemAlways]

40. The last person on earth who'd be

able to muster any sympathy for hurricane victims is Cheney. He's probably royally pissed that the government has to spend a dime on the relief effort. If it was up to him, Army recruiters would be dispatched to NO to sign up anyone remotely eligible and ship them immediately to Iraq. Everybody else he'd leave to die.

[MichiganVote]

41. Don't you remember....

42. could America be so lucky?? Slap me! Shame on me!!!

[TheDonkey]

45. very possible. might wheel out the coffin when dubya's #'s bottom

[OneTwentyoNine]

46. No,no...a real simple answer. He just flat out doesn't give a SHIT...

Live or die in New Orleans,he doesn't care. Doesn't look like the "have's and have more's" from what he's seen on TV.

[MichiganVote]

47. Like I said, "Dick Cheney can be Vice President" GWB, 2004

What a crock.

[mtnsnake]

48. Probably stroked out. He & Bush alternate for stroke of the month.

Both of them become more and more disfunctional every month, so much so that there's gotta be a medical reason.

[Dr Fate]

59. Cheney has heart attacks- Bush has cocaine induced aneurysms.

n/t

[belle]

49. I've said it before: Cheney is a head in a jar, with a "body" hologrammed

on for necessary public occasions. He's not dead; he's Undead. has been for years. You'll see.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

52. Most likely he's one of the Undead.

[chomskysright]

55. ZOMBIFIED

[TankLV]

57. God I certainly hope so.!

And the entire gang of criminals.

The world can't stand another minute of their negligence and crimes.

58. Must..not...post...mean--fuck it. One can only hope.

And I am.

60. Darth is on vacation.

Surprise, surprise.

[Panda1]

63. Amazing. Thanks for the link.

Where's Cheney?

Vice President Cheney, who has spent part of August at his home outside scenic Jackson, Wyo., remains there today -- although his spokeswoman, Lea Anne McBride, doesn't call it vacation.

"He's working from Wyoming today," McBride told me this morning.

So what is his day like in Jackson? Any fly-fishing on the Snake River during his work day?

"He's already had his morning briefings," McBride said. "He'll have some other internal staff meetings." Beyond that, McBride said, she would have to check and get back to me. I missed her call back but will try to reach her again.

And when is he coming back? "He will certainly be coming back. I'm not able to tell you the day right now. I don't have that handy."

I cannot find ANY recent press coverage or quotes.

62. ...but found he is planning a trip to Alberta

http://www.rabble.ca/news_full_story.shtml?x=41335

Cheney to visit Alberta for Big Oil

Here in Canada, we should greet Cheney as a war criminal, as his (nominal) boss Bush was greeted last year.

>by Derrick O'Keefe
September 1, 2005

U.S. Vice-President Dick Cheney will make a visit to Canada in early September. His itinerary, though, isn't likely to take him near the nation's capital in Ottawa, as he plans to stick to the more familiar territory of oil-rich Alberta. Cheney's trip highlights once again the priorities of the U.S. administration. Dick will be here to size up the vaunted tar sands of Alberta which, despite still difficult and costly extraction, some tout as the world's largest reserve of hydrocarbons. On September 8, Cheney will have a high-level “invitation-only” dinner in Calgary with western premiers Ralph Klein and Gordon Campbell, with the evening's host being none other than the “non-partisan” Fraser Institute, an influential right-wing “think-tank. ”

The Fraser Institute is a familiar source for dissemination of conservative ideas, particularly for those on Canada's West Coast. Its press releases are all too often run as news stories — especially in CanWest-Global productions — no matter how recycled their latest “findings,” such as their tiresome annual school “rankings” aimed at discrediting public education. Nevertheless the swagger that the Institute's long-time mouthpiece Michael Walker displayed in announcing the V.P.'s dinner is worth noting. “It's a private dinner for a few friends of ours with the vice-president. It's by invitation-only,” Walker told the Edmonton Sun.

In an interview with The Georgia Straight, Walker was at pains to avoid the perception that members of the federal government might deserve some credit for the Veep's impending visit: “We invited Vice-President Cheney to come to Canada, although I heard yesterday, now, the deputy prime minister is claiming she invited him. He is coming up for a private visit with myself and another friend of his up in Alberta, where we'll go off up in a lodge for a variety of purposes. ”

Michael Walker's bombast, though, shouldn't come as a surprise. You might recall him from his delightful cameo in the documentary The Corporation. Playing himself, a right-winger amongst a cast of left-wing talking-heads, Walker delivers at once perhaps the film's most frightening and comic moment, declaring that “every square inch” of the world's air, water and land ought to be privatized. No one should be surprised, either, by this free market zealot's loyalty and devotion to Dick Cheney. They work for the same people, after all. George W. Bush picked Cheney to draft the vaunted Energy Policy that was one of the Administration's first orders of business in 2001. Then, along with the war in Iraq, Bush and Cheney ignored the Kyoto Accord on climate change at the urging of oil giants like Exxon. The world's largest oil company just happened to contribute $60,000 to the Fraser Institute in both 2003 and 2004.

70. Your damn right I'm onto something. The media is hiding something

The media is hiding something very big about Cheney. Press the media about Cheney people. It may seem an insignificant thing in light of everything else but it is not.

Where is Dick Cheney?

[renie408]

64. I think so

My husband says that Dick Cheney is dead and they are in the process of building an animatronic Dick Cheney Robot.

[shayes51]

65. How could we tell?

[LibertyorDeath]

67. Well they don't call him Crash cart for nothing.

[renie408]

68. OK, that was funny. n/t

[liberaliraqvet26]

[MichiganVote]

71. Let's send him to the "Charity" hospital in NO

[paineinthearse]

72. Are we saying....

The VPoUS has passed on! This VP is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-VPoUS!!

Poor Polly (I mean Dickie)!

76. I don't know, but if he is, that might improve his likability factor....

77. Don't make my day.

78. that would be nice but we are not that lucky!

79. Luck or love, we need them both

[Don Claybrook]

80. It's a pleasant thought

but I doubt it.

[rniel]

81. If he is

I think we should go ahead with impeachment plans.

[MichiganVote]

82. Good idea. Let's make sure he stays dead.

[mzteris]

83. That would require a STAKE. n/t

84. Only from the neck up

From all appearences, his ganglia continue to keep his lower body moving.

I was just on GDP, there are 2-3 new ones.

Can we just have one and keep it all in one place?
