Who is tired of the Cheney threads already?

[Jamison]

It seems like one out of every two threads on DU is about him. Aren't there more important things to be discussing? Seriously, this is getting old.

[ShortnFiery]

1. I love it ... daylight helps rid us of such a vampire n/t

[babylonsister]

2. Patience; this too shall pass! A topic has to be beat to death

first on DU! :D

[rodeodance]

13. maybe some of them should be in the Lounge?

[babylonsister]

22. I'm kind of enjoying all the hoopla; nice to have a bit of levity

around here for a change, and not at our expense!

[MrBenchley]

3. Not me....

We'll always have Paris.....

[ncrainbowgrrl]

52. Right there with you, MrBenchley!

:hi:

[MrBenchley]

53. The plea by this gang was "Just trust us" and Bwana Dick blew a hole in it

for all to see.

And then they tried to cover it up....and when the news emerged, blamed the victim.

[Theres-a]

4. Maybe they should startup GD:Cheney and GD:Everything Else!

[Jamison]

6. For real!

I hope this topic doesn't get beaten worse than Terri Schiavo.

[Cobalt Violet]

9. That's what I was thinking.

We do need that.

[Fridays Child]

5. Technically speaking...

...isn't this one of them?

;)

[skooooo]

7. Are you kidding?

This is bigger than Ford hitting someone with a golf ball. This one's going to be here awhile. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, either.

[hippiechick]

8. Yeah, and 17 threads on the SAME EXACT THING!!

Jebus, how retarded are we. Really ??? :freak:

[rfranklin]

15. Better than the Three Stooges...

I am looking around the floor for my ass right now!

[ShortnFiery]

17. The Vice President of the United States SHOT a man ...

This issue should lead EVERY main stream media event.

How many people do you know in public office have NOT ONLY shot another human being (outside of war) BUT also put them into the Intensive Care Unit (ICU)?!?

This is HUGE! We need a briefing from the doctors? The victim has not been let up off of the morphine to truly make a lucid statement. Further being in ICU, he could still DIE.

Damn straight, this is monumental!

[Theres-a]

23. It really is

I would like to see a subforum,it would be easier to sort it all out and read the pertient info.Wonder what the guy will say when he is able.

[onenote]

43. just cause someone's in ICU doesn't mean they may die

Get a grip. Ten bucks says the guy's released from the hospital later today or tomorrow.

onenote

[mwb970]

45. I don't know, 2 days in ICU sounds serious to me. (n/t)

[Theres-a]

10. I can't wait to hear Malloy's take on this

Should be a good daily show tonight,too.

[tanyev]

11. If you're tired of them, use the Hide Thread feature.

[Theres-a]

19. There are 40 threads

That's alot of hiding.:wow:

[Joyce78]

12. I'd like to know

where my arse would be if I accidentally shot someone.

[Boredtodeath]

14. Clicking "Hide Thread" like mad

It's ridiculous!

[Sugar Smack]

16. Not me. eom

[stop the bleeding]

18. why what is up with Cheney????

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

[Canuckistanian]

20. This won't devolve into another Cheney thread, will it?

Pretty soon all of DU will All-Cheney, All-the-time.

[demdiva]

21. Yes I agree . . .

Look here :)
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=401191&mesg_id=401191

Well I MENTION the timing of the Cheney press release, my problem is really with what news is getting left out of the mass media.

[Connie_Corleone]

24. It's not everyday that the VP shoots someone.

I'm not tired of it yet. I probably will be tomorrow.

[donheld]

25. I am, so thanks for starting another one

:crazy::crazy::crazy:

[rman]

26. I am. Many other issues are of greater importance. nt

[montana500]

31. yes. But you "Gore Cheney" and that helps the issues...

That's how it works.

[ShortnFiery]

33. That's the problem with us Democrats ...

Yes, intellectually, there are many more important issues.

However, politics is run by hype in Bush-World. We may hate it but WE ALL live in 1984 Bush-World.

If and only if we want to make a difference, we should grab a hold of this issue and NEVER let up until his resignation.

Albeit the nutty fringe of the RW jokes, many average and moderate Republicans can identify with this issue on a "gut level."

You want to get Dick out of the Vice Presidency, drive this issue home!

Yes, the Vice President shooting a man is now *all-important* for the media spin.

Remember, the average American is too busy working 2-3 jobs or dumbed down with talking points and wedge issues to address the TRULY IMPORTANT issues that effect most of the country.

Bring it on home, IMO, dig dig dig the dirt and don't let up of "Eagle Eye Cheney."

[montana500]

41. It's sad but true...

This is the kind of "gotcha" scenario in which the Democrats have had so few of lately.

*character* "gotchas" count. Facts and details don't. Sad but true.

[montana500]

42. It's sad but true...

This is the kind of "gotcha" scenario in which the Democrats have had so few of lately.

*character* "gotchas" count. Facts and details don't. Sad but true.

[lpbk2713]

27. Not me. Tell me more about Deadeye Dick.

The meanest hombre this side of the Pecos.

[Armstead]

28. Start a serious thread about Globalization and see how fast it sinks

I guess we DUers are just as superficial as anyone else.

(Yes, i posted a couple of Cheney threads myself.)

[montana500]

29. The Cheney threads are important..

making him look like the goon he is in an election year is important. MAking people remember he is the vie rpesident right before Fitz moves on to him is important.

Anytime Cheney gets the spoylight it is VERY BAD for the administration. He has terrible poll numbers. Having all these threads and jokes in the media helps our cause, and brings light + help to every single on of our issues.

[Pryderi]

30. DU The Cheney Poll!

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/cheney_hunting_accident

[Dees]

32. This isn't just anybody. We're talking about the Big Dick himself.

This is something you don't hear about every day. A VP shoots someone.

[ShortnFiery]

35. What's this double speak? "Very Stable" = "Barely Alive"? n/t

[lpbk2713]

37. That begs the question .....

What does very stable really mean when applied to a republican?


:shrug:

[babylonsister]

40. And if he's so 'very stable', what was he doing in ICU? nt

[txindy]

49. Exactly right. Two days after the shooting and he's still in the ICU.

That's not the "superficial" wounding the spin would have us believe.

[mwb970]

38. Aaron Burr was the other VP to shoot someone while in office. (n/t)

[mwb970]

34. He needs to be discussed constantly.

Whether it is this shooting incident or his leaking info to Libby or whatever his latest evil deed is, this monster needs more than anything else to be EXPOSED. No more hiding in dark, undisclosed locations.

More and more people are noticing that every single scandal and evil act of the Bush administration can be traced to Cheney. Every single one! He is the vilest member of a truly vile administration. Let's keep talking about it.

[Ready4Change]

36. Not me. Not yet.

I'm glad Whittington will recover. Allows this subject to me mined for all it's worth.

And it's worth it's weight in gold. Cheney is becoming synonymous with Elmer Fudd.

[ShortnFiery]

46. Do we really know Whittington WILL RECOVER other than a

glib statement by a Hospital Administrator?

Have we heard about his condition through an ACTUAL attending Physician?

[tinfoilinfor2005]

39. DU version of swiftboating.

I feel no guilt. :evilgrin:

[booksenkatz]

44. Wait, let me check........

NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNope. Not yet.

[theHandpuppet]

47. Me.

I agree with you.

[DinahMoeHum]

48. Hey, we're having too much fun right now.

Now pass the popcorn and STFU.

:sarcasm::popcorn:

[canichelouis]

50. Everyone around here deserves a little R & R

It's been rough the last couple of months, years

[seabeyond]

51. ME

[Coexist]

54. ME.

[MoJoWorkin]

55. I say, "Bring 'em on!" Haven't laughed this much in a long time.

WE NEED IT!:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

DU'ers have a way with words that help me get thru the day. I couldn't wait to get online, after hearing the news, to get my fellow DU'ers take on it all.

THANKS DU. I will be donating again.

[Justpat]

56. Not me.

I am enjoying every one.

I like seeing him verbally flogged with such passion.
Now if only he could be slapped with accountability
for his destruction of our country - that would be nice.
One can dream... :evilgrin:

[Beetwasher]

57. Not Me, What Do You Expect??? It's Friggin' Bizarre!!!

n/t

[against all enemies]

58. Have you read the latest? Thery're great, laugh a minute.

Come on, the most evil VP ever shots a man and you want people to shut up. Come back in a few days when the fun is over. Or he shoots another poor bastard.
