For the debate, Cheney is an expert in the following:
Edited on Tue Oct-05-04 01:30 PM by genius
Ignoring warnings of an imminent terrorist attack using airplanes against tall buildings and allowing 3000 Americans to die. (It happened on this administrations watch.)

Creating the largest deficit in history.

Losing (however many) jobs for Americans

Outsourcing good paying American jobs to low-wage earners in foreign lands.

Taking money from education and health care and giving it to his campaign contributors

Making the cost of prescription drugs in America go through the roof.

Breaking treaties and sending a message to the world that America's word cannot be trusted.

Throwing away worldwide trust and goodwill and making the world hate us.


Letting polluters dictate an energy policy that would bankrupt consumers in secret meetings (If that's not what happened, open the books)

Cutting benefits to servicemen while the billions allotted for war were given to special interests, one of which is paying Cheney an annual salary.

Paying mercenaries more and giving them better body armor than our servicemen.

Raising the levels of arsenic and cyanide in the water

Poisoning the fresh waters with so much mercury that most fish in America is dangerous to eat.

Lying to the American public about Iraq, about energy policy, about why Halliburton received those contracts.

4. Buying a company with a HUGE asbestos claim hanging over it
400,000 plaintiffs, $4.2B settlement.

You call that good leadership?
