Dick Cheney is a man that no one is ambivalent about. People either love him or hate him. But love him or hate him, no one would accuse him of being a "wild and crazy guy." Or would they? Look at the picture above, taken directly from the Vice President's WEBSITE. Think it's a picture of an avid sportsman enjoying a sunny day of trout fishing? Look closer at his sunglasses. Closer...clo-oser. Notice a flesh-toned reflection?
That reflection got DUmmie Growler wondering. In true DUmmie fashion, rather than zoom in on the sunglasses and apply a simple sharpening tool, he posts THIS THREAD. While he never reveals what he thinks he sees, he certainly gets speculation going as to what it is reflected in the sunglasses. To hear the DUmmie theories, you would think that Vice President Cheney was, at his mildest, Hugh Hefner, and at his wildest the Marquis de Sade.
To which I can only say, "It's Dick Cheney! He's about as wild and exotic as Old Spice."
Now on to watch the DUmmies speculate just what it is in Dick Cheney's sunglasses in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble guest correspondent, Paul Heinzman, is in the [brackets]:
Darth Cheney's sunglasses...
WARNING: Dick Cheney picture alert!
Okay, maybe I've gone bonkers, but check out this photo of Cheney from his OWN whitehouse.gov page:
[No "maybe" about it; you're bonkers]
http://www.whitehouse.gov/vicepresident/photoessays/outdoors/06.html
Notice anything... interesting... reflected in his sunglasses? Something that has little to do with conventional "fly-fishing"?
[Nope, looks like a traditional Spey rod in his hands.]
PS: I don't want to say what I think is reflected there, because I don't want to influence any opinions.
[You just want to bait the DUmmies into making all sorts of speculations of their own. Marvelous!]
But what is the reflection? At first, I thought it was a naked man in a rowboat.
[It's Dick Cheney, not benburch.]
I agree with "naked in a rowboat", but honestly it looks like a young woman to me. Of course that could be my own sexist prejudices....
[It's Dick Cheney, not Ted Kennedy.]
It looks naked and human!!
[Could it possibly be a warped reflection of a naked human hand?]
WTF!! Maybe he was getting a little nookie at government expense. Or it could be a naked detainee from Gitmo or Abu Gharib. That explains the smile; the sick old f***er is getting off watching him/her being tortured.
[Go jump to conclusions in a lake.]
I hope this piece of shit (Cheney) rots in hell!!
[Sounds like you already are. I can only hand out LFT and Kewpie Dolls; kevkrom controls the Peace, Love & Tolerance Award. I'll put in a good word for you.]
Have you heard the news today?
[I read the news today, oh boy.]
We "sucker" taxpayers are going to have to foot the bill for his continued secret service protection after he leaves office !!! I would say that he knows how much the Country HATES HIM !! NOT MY TAX DOLLARS!
[If my tax dollars can pay for Jimmah Carter's Secret Service detail as he goes to Syria to commit treason, your tax dollars can pay for Dick Cheney's in retirement.]
Quack Quack torture quack quack quack....
[That's quack-tastic.]
Something to forward to Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert
[Be careful what you wish for. Since both CNN and Fox News ran this story today, I doubt they'll be able to resist these DUmb theories.]
shirtless boy?
[It's Dick Cheney, not Mark Foley.]
but the left side seems to show the naked torso (and maybe more) of a man facing Cheney. Someone with advanced photo imaging software could probably make out better.
[Don't spoil our FUn.]
If it were something nefarious in the reflection, would it be on his official webpage?
[And this DUmmie WINS a Kewpie Doll for having a brief moment of mental clarity.]
It's a cigar.
[It's Dick Cheney, not Bill Clinton.]
A partially dismembered human corpse on a tarp?
[It's Dick Cheney, not Hillary Clinton.]
I see dead people.
[I read DUmb people.]
With the disclosed fact that I've had a few...
[Is that you, Will Pitt?]
I need to sober up!
[I guess it's not.]
young nekked big boobed girl
[It's Dick Cheney, not Eliot Spitzer.]
looks like he's got his hand up a monkey's butt. Like it's a puppet
[Temporary sockpuppet?]
I'm not sure if this is really possible, but to me it looks like the reflections are not the same on both sides. On the left (his right eye) there is a horizontal yellow line that appears aligned with the back of the thigh of the body-like shape. On the right (his left eye), that same horizontal line appears aligned lower down on the leg. Could there be two figures, each casting a reflection in just one of the glasses panes?
[Only if his eyes are on the sides of his head.]
Here
[Thanks for ruining a Cheney feeding frenzy by posting an enlarged and enhanced version of the picture that clearly shows the reflection of Cheney's hands holding a Spey rod.]
Can we at least criticize his grip?
[Well do something fast--he's starting to appear human!]
This place was starting to resemble those people who find Jesus in a tortilla.
[The Jesus in a tortilla business isn't what it used to be, so now I'm selling carbon credits.]
Good find! It was funny, another thread was started this morning and I unfortunately had to burst their collective bubble. It was fun while it lasted though!
[Nothing's ever over in the DUmp. Every DUmb speculation gets recycled.]
You're thinking of Bawney Fwank's sunglasses.
Sometimes a cigar is just a . . . shirtless boy being tortured.
Hillary Clinton partially disremembered the human corpses on a tarmac.
securely contained in in a plastic case. From wherever you live, you can fly this PURE CARBON to Yucca Mountain and throw them into the same orifice where our nuclear waste is supposed to be stored.
Can your carbon credits do that? Well, can they...punk? :p
I see dead fish.
Classic. ;)
. . . in fishnet stockings.
Get a grip!
I'm a Lutheran. WE don't find JESUS in a tortilla. Jesus finds US in a tortilla!
You guys make me laugh!
I wasn’t sure how to handle that. I originally had it as a hyperlink but wanted to keep it in Bolshevik Red and my HTML skills aren’t what they used to be.
You’re 2-for-2, PH! Keep this up and I’ll be out of a job!
Type that up for me and sign it, please, could you? I have someone huffing and spluttering at me over on another thread, with a radically different "take" on the matter altogether. ;)
Funny that the left would criticize Cheny for this after Clinton’s record (when Clinton lied no one died, bla, bla, bla). Thew would do better bringing up Cheney’s shooting skills. But, that might bring up Bill’s skills where he shot at Hillary and hit an intern in her blue dress.
Well, it’s about time I paid you back for years of guffaws.
Tell me where, and he'll have napalm all over him before you know it. >8-)
You can some carbon credits from me. For $50 I'll buy a rose bush, boxwood, osamanthus fragrans or azaleas and maintain it well for up to 5 years and it will consume your $50 of excess carbon dioxide and off-gas some useful oxygen. For $100 I will buy a southern white pine, magnolia grandiflora, or dogwood and maintain that for a period of 5 years for you.
I am working on my tropical hardwood credits, too. I am willing to reforest (for a price) a portion of the jungle of New Guinea (specifically on the slope of Cyclops Mountain overlooking Lake Sentani).
You can do your part for the environment. SAVE THE PLANET MAKE MY YARD THE WORLD A LITTLE GREENER.
[Nothing's ever over in the DUmp. Every DUmb speculation gets recycled.]
Wow, a magnolia. Those are some fancy carbon credits you’re selling:-)
haha!
thats great!
