Cheney Steps To The Line in Kentucky
Look Ma, they're starting to feed on themselves...TEA anyone?...BWAHAHAHAHA :rofl:

Tea Partiers DON'T have the political backbone to run primary opponents against ALL their Republican brothers/sisters. Republicans would be DOA if that ever happened.


Former Vice President Dick Cheney has injected himself into Kentucky’s Senate contest, endorsing Republican hopeful Trey Grayson as “the real conservative in this race.”


In a statement, Mr. Cheney indicated that Mr. Grayson, Kentucky’s secretary of state, would be stronger on national security and fiscal issues than his primary opponent – Rand Paul, an ophthalmologist and son of Representative Ron Paul, the 2008 presidential candidate.


Mr. Grayson’s campaign, for example, is backed at least implicitly by Mitch McConnell — the senior senator from Kentucky, as well as the chamber’s top Republican. Dr. Paul, meanwhile, is a favorite among Tea Party activists. (He has also received the endorsement of Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor.)


With the primary steadily approaching, both the Grayson and Paul campaigns have both gone on the offensive recently on security issues.

2. I hope that bastard comes to KY to campaign.
I will be there to protest this draft dodging, war mongering , war criminal liar. It seems every time these turds come to town they go to a privileged neighborhood that the police 'protect' from protesters. Cheney needs along, long trip to Holland.

3. They think their shit doesn't ever smell. They believe they are born from the real bloodlines of
of leaders and rulers and NOT servants and slaves. And pukes like Cheney continue to point fingers at Democrats and frame them as elitists. I say call out them out and shine a very bright light on their lying hypocritical ways each and every time these ground slugs decide to surface and begin promoting their drivel.

4. I was kind of hoping Batshit Paul would win it
I can see the ads now:

"Rand Paul claims to be a Kentuckian...but he went to Duke University. Can we trust a Duke graduate with our state's children's future?"

9. Rand will run as Palin's VP on the Tea Party ticket in 2012.
The vote will be split three ways.

There will not be the required minimum electoral vote for any of the three tickets.

This will repeat the Election of 1824.

The Presidential Election of 2012 will be thrown into the House of Representatives (Democratic Party-controlled).

They will vote for HILLARY for President because Barack will be out from a so-called "cigarette-caused heart attack", which you shouldn't buy into. Biden will decline to run and defer to Hillary. They will be dark times.
