Huff Po: "Was Cheney Hiding His Lewinsky?" (he had a "female companion")


http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bob-cesca/was-cheney-hiding-his-lew_b_15705.html

Sirius radio's Alex Bennett just broke a rumor that the delay in reporting the news that Cheney shot an old man in the heart was due to an effort to hide or spin Cheney's female companion.

Pamela Willeford (shown right), ambassador to Switzerland and -- yes -- Liechtenstein, was part of the hunting excursion with Cheney and Whittington. And according to Willeford's account, Cheney and the ambassador were side-by-side when the shooting of Whittington took place.

The vice president's Secret Service detail had to decide what to do with Willeford by way of perhaps covering up her relationship with Cheney, and thus the delay in reporting the news.

The rumor goes that Lynn Cheney isn't happy with Cheney's close relationship with Willeford. Again, just a rumor. UPDATE: For more details and analysis, read RJ Eskow's latest article here.

3. Why not?
Was cheney drunked up and having sex in the field before he shot the man? Is that why he disappeared for at least 14 hours after the "incident?" To sober up? To put distance between he and his squeeze? But as any flag waving right wing zealot with a microphone would say, this is no big deal.

Gosh didn't some raving lunatic liberal once say that cheney could shoot a man in the face and absolutely nothing would happen to him?

4. Well, well, well. That would explain a lot of the secrecy,
wouldn't it? Now if they find out that there's a bj involved, we could impeach him, right?

9. Indeed--it is ok to shoot your rifle, but don't get caught shooting your
gun!! After all, one is for fighting, the other for fun!!! They had to whisk away Dick's little hottie--I wonder what undisclosed location she's hiding out at?????



Geez, I think an aggressive Lois Lane needs to snag an interview with this VeePee hottie, and find out just what was going on that day at the Armstrong Ranch....

5. "just broke a rumor"
No he didn't--several publications, including Molly Ivans masterful editorial, mentions it...

The woman was also buddies with the host as well--the rich like to keep it in the family. Besides, who cares where Dick puts his dick...irrelevent.

7. We don't
but this might have been a factor because of the invasive purient nature of his base. Right now, good old boys who had supported Bush/Cheney for years are either talking with disgust about the shooting or are very very quiet. If the woman involved comes into the picture, the good old girls might suddenly get very disgusted, too.

10. Irrelevant? To quote John McEnroe, SURELY YOU CANNOT BE
SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!

They MADE it relevant when they specifically, precisely, and with full awareness and malice aforethought, ran AGAINST White House blow jobs. Remember that bullshit about "bringing honor and integrity back to the White House?" All of the GOP operatives making snarky comments that found their way onto these here internets about cleaning the carpet, and so on? A GOP Congress authorizing millions and millions and millions of taxpayer dollars to investigate said blowjob? The mouth-breathing Ken Starr, salaciously including every prurient detail he could dig up, throwing log after log on the inferno??

They RAN ON THIS ISSUE. They milked it for all it was worth.

Thus, it is relevant, if only to point out yet one more sterling example of GOP hypocrisy in all of its stunning audacity.

Chickens coming home to roost....or are they quail???

12. Anything that caused Cheney to hide this incident is relevant...
I don't care about his sex life...I'd rather not know ANYTHING about it.

But if this incident was hidden from the media because of "where he put his dick"...or being intoxicated, or anything else...it's relevant.

20. Exactly...
The booze thing has 'traction'--and one of the real reasons why he waited. In fact, my theory is that Cheney probably has anger management problems and when drunk, he's probably the biggest bully there is on Capitol hill. He was the one that belted Shrub during the Pretzel period--I am sure of it.

As far as balling the Swiss Miss, sure...balling the lobbyist host...probably at one time. She said they were good friends and she wouldn't DARE lobby the VP while they were hunting. Yeah right.

These Bohemnia Grove types are pigs anyway--immoral, hypocrites, scum, but it is the stupidity of the public that allows them to play the 'sex' card against the Democrats and ONLY the Democrats.

Look at Neil's divorce proceedings...hardly an upstanding family values chump...look at chimpy cokehead, ignored...Pickles the hit and runner...that shit ONLY sticks one-way. They slam gays and many of them are gay--oldest trick in the book. They encourage creationism, but half are Straussian atheists. etc etc

Sure if you can trash the guy for an affair--fine...but it ain't going to happen when there are tons of other more interesting things going down.

Insistence on this front is frankly prurient.

BUT ON ANOTHER ASPECT:

But what happens if Whittington gets better and has a press conference telling everyone it's an accident?

Then what? Case closed? Pretty well...nobody laying charges against the guy

Stick to the theft, the wiretaps, the lobbying, illegal wars, Haliburton kickbacks, the Leak, etc etc...

It's not like there isn't enough for any of these guys to be serving hard time and Cheney just got nailed with the Plame leak...this is a hunting accident.

I think it is -- in the context of THINGS -- Highly Relevant. And important.

26. your damn right it is relevant
Ignoring the fact that anything that helps to drive these evil people out of power is good, we have the highly relevant issue of her obtaining one of the plum (if not the plumiest) positions in the federal government. Did she obtain it because of her relationship with Cheney? Was she pressured into a relationship in order to get or keep her job?

If there is any possibility that there is a relationship, it stinks to high heaven and NEEDS to be exposed.

Some blood pressure meds can. So can some other commonly prescribed drugs.
