I love Cheney (him and Rummy are our current times Marshall and Truman IMHO), but I do not believe he has the vigor and the physical stamina to run for President. He has served us with distinction, Fred, let him go fly fishing.

Yeah, as much as I admire Cheney, I don't see him running for '08.

No offense, but PLEASE do not compare anyone to Truman, that is unless you're insulting them.

HST was a 2nd 3rd 4th rate political hack who...

  1. Followed through on the giveaway of Eastern Europe to Stalin which subjugated those poor souls to 50 years of Communism.
  2. Literally gave Asia to the Communists, and specifically China by abandoning Chiang Kai-Shek.
  3. Was oblivious to the infiltration of Soviet spies in the US government, some working directly in the White House. In fact he IGNORED the intel to that effect given to him by the FBI.
  4. Was absolutely weak on the spread of communism. Which gave the North Koreans the impression that he would do 'squat' if they invaded the South.
  5. Then after CAUSING the Korean War, the SOB limits the military targets and 'fighting' NOT to win.
  6. Oh he also reneged on promises (lied) to Ho Chi Minh regarding France and their little empire, which ultimately led to the Vietnam War.

This MSM fallacy and propaganda about 'give em hell Harry' must end. The only Hell he gave was to people in Eastern Europe, Asia and the USA - you know, basically the entire world.

As such, I personally believe that POS should be dug up, tried for treason, shot and dumped in a swamp.

Hello, all --
Have I suggested Donald Rumsfeld for 2008 lately?
OK, then, let me suggest....Donald Rumsfeld - 2008.
If the Vice President wishes to step aside after this term in office, then I think Rumsfeld is best able to continue a strong stand against terror, and least likely to be dragged down by PC concerns.
His vigor and energy are twice that of younger men, and we have clearly seen that he has conceded nothing to age.
Interestingly, in a recent speech to the National Press Club, when Rumsfeld was asked if he were planning to fade into the sunset, he said, and I paraphrase closely, "Dick Nixon said that you wouldn't have him [Nixon] to kick around anymore. I'm saying no such thing!"
Go, Rummy, go!
