Not that it is a good thing but I am old enough to remember R. Hilhaus Licksom during his entire career.

Cheney is every thing good that slimey Dick pretended to be.
Call former VP Cheney what you will, that is your right, however sir it is my right to call you a mattery eyed lying SOB.

What a piece of trash written by an obvious piece of crab ridden, lefty loving scum!!!!

Cheney is a patriot, were it not for poor Jerry Ford, Nixon would have died in prison, or before a firing squad.

“Translation: reminding the left when they were wrong, dead wrong.”

They didn´t fare so well in the ´60’s either. JFK sent troops to Viet Nam and initiate the fighting, then, after his assassination, LBJ ramped up the numbers big time using as a reason the trumped up Tonkin Gulk Incident.

Those 58,000 plus deaths in Viet Nam are primarily in the lap of the Dimocrat Party as is the case with most all the wars from 1880 to 1990. Mugabe was courtesy of Carter, Ayatollah Khomeinei, thanks again Jammah and finally the KorComs nuke program - Jammah, you just never take a breath, do you?

Coming from the ex-husband of Sharon Stone — the man stupid enough to get in a cage with a critter that caused him great bodily harm and added that this is San Francisco he speaks from — I think his brain cells are scrambled and Cheney should be pleased he has upset people of that ilk.

This Cheney role comes just in time for those of us who were reminded by "Frost/Nixon"...

Wow, somebody saw that movie.

Isn’t this the loser who went to the zoo for his birthday and a kymodo dragon lizard bit him on the toe?

Yeah, those birkenstocks don't protect very well.

The pictures don’t look at all alike, but the young Nixon looks a lot like Obama. I’ve seen Precious One scowl like that, with shadowed eyes.

What is it about Dick Cheney that makes the liberals foam at the mouths?

It must be because he so obviously has what they’re so obviously lacking:
Masculinity
Intelligence
“Gravitas”
and a shootin’ iron!

Former VP Dick Cheney is indeed a PATRIOT, and a whole lot more than that if you look at the many many years of his life devoted to America. He is the ONLY ONE standing up for the GOP, as Rush said over and over this morning. I for one would have loved seeing him as the top dog during the last eight years because of his no nonsense approach to business and obvious love of God, country and the Constitution. Need I add, he doesn’t take sh— from anyone!

Cheney’s a guy who’s very existence causes countless attractive conservative ladies to swoon. I wish I’d met him first.

Well if the Tricky Dick comparison applies, then Cheney will make a comeback in 2012 and liberate this nation.

Wow, this is enough to give hope!

A modern day Tricky Dick to give the straight skinny on the Sacred Cow may be just what we need!

God bless President Nixon!

Cheney is a case study in the power of demonization. The image of Cheney as a unsympathetic figure worthy of scorn and derision is the fruit of an unceasing 9 year campaign waged by the Left and its allies in the mainstream media.

Prior to being selected as Bush's VP nominee in 2000, one would be hard pressed to find a more respected public servant than Dick Cheney. He was held in the highest esteem by colleagues on both sides of the aisle. For decades Cheney was widely respected and publicly lauded as a gentleman politician, an example of a firm, fair-minded leader who treated others with dignity and respect. He was an absolute model of how to be a principled politician in the cesspool of Washington.

But then began the drumbeats and chants from the war camps of the Left. And now the quintessential good guy politician who gave most of his life to public service is reduced to a dark caricature. The hero is now a villain. Not because the hero changed, but because those with the power to control the national narrative of the moment made it so.

Everything I detest about the behavior of the mainstream media and the Left is crystallized in what they've done to Cheney.

Everything I admire about principled and steady leadership under fire is crystallized in Dick Cheney.
