Will They Go to Court? (191 comments )
READ MORE: Dick Cheney, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Scooter Libby, Valerie Plame
So, I suppose the question is...what kind of civil trial will we see, or not see, between Cheney and Whittington? Whittington is certainly no stranger to a court room and to civil litigation. Will Cheney pay him off, preemptively? Will they go to court? I would imagine if a guy with a few beers in him shoots you in the face on a hunting trip, how could you turn down that opportunity?
What would Cheney do about the whole secrecy thing then? I mean, this is the guy that sicced Enron on Gray Davis and the state of California to embarrass Davis, trigger the recall and then watched Arnold Schwarzenegger become governor of California. (To this day, perhaps, still the low point in American political life.) Then Cheney covered it up.
Cheney's the guy who told Libby to out Valerie Plame. The rumor I heard is that someone yelled, "Look out! Shooter!" and Cheney thought he said Scooter and fired in that general direction.
Cheney is a terrorist. He terrorizes our enemies abroad and innocent citizens here at home indiscriminately. Who ever thought Harry Whittington would be the answer to America's prayers. Finally, someone who might get that lying, thieving Cheney into a courtroom to answer some direct questions.
Alec beat hell out of his wife? She must have been very small and out of shape. Or did he sucker punch her when she wasn't expecting it? This punk whipping a twinkie would be news worthy.
The lefties at Huffington Post are only there because they aren't smart enough to sign on at Democrat Underground.
Alec, there is an end point in terms of human girth when the human body simply explodes. However, as you blow up fatter and fatter, we wish you well!
From "Page Six" [March 11, 2002], enjoy...
No wonder Alec "Bloviator" Baldwin takes Al Gore's loss to President George W. Bush so personally - he, too, is an election sore-loser.
In 1979, when Alec still went by his birth name Alex, the eldest Baldwin brother lost his campaign to be George Washington University's student association president by one vote. After he demanded a recount which only confirmed Baldwin's loss, he dropped out of GW and transferred to New York University.
Baldwin served as head of GW's program board, which arranged for guest speakers and the like. According to GWU's student paper, the GW Hatchet, Baldwin, campaigning for the student association presidency, told voters: "GW suffers from one of the most pitiable public relations operations of any university of America . . . the administration is deliberately striving to keep the student body in the dark as to what they are doing with our money and our education."
The soon-to-be actor's platform didn't jibe with the students, and Baldwin lost the right to an election runoff with Mike Karakostas and Pete Aloe by a margin of one vote.
The young and not yet pudgy Baldwin got his lackey and program board underling, Thomas Blood, to complain to the election board and demand a recount.
The move made Baldwin the butt of jokes. In the March 8, 1979, edition of the GW Hatchet, National Law Center senator Dana Dembrow wrote: "Yes, it is possible for Alex Baldwin to not win a fair election. Alex Baldwin lost not because anyone cheated, but simply because his opponents were the choice of the voters."
"Not everyone in the University is enchanted with Mr. Baldwin's administrative ability as a result of the job that the program board has done during the past two semesters. Some of us, in fact, were quite disappointed.
"No Alex, we didn't vote for you. . . That's right, it was fair and square. It's time to stop complaining and congratulate the victors."
Several weeks after Baldwin's loss - and days after he made his transfer to NYU known - all eyes were again on him. The university heaved a sigh of relief that Baldwin's recount efforts were not successful.
An inquiry was started when the board's funds mysteriously ran dry and GW's student activities office accused it of mismanaging money.
Later, on April Fool's day, the GW Hatchet poked fun at Baldwin in a piece that was written about the investigation.
"Phallix Baldweenie, Bored Chairidiot, commented: 'So what if they found anything? I'll be at NYU before they can indict me!," editors spoofed.
Thanks for showing the supreme idiocy of the left. I needed the laugh. (I know, you shouldn't laugh at people who "stay stupid".)
The best approach to Alec Baldwin and the libs is to treat them like wild song birds. Watch them but otherwise ignore them. They are irrelevant. Put forth the republican conservative agenda and keep focused on that. Let's not waste our energy on them. Life is too short.
It must be sad being him. He once had a gorgeous wife who left him because he beat her up, then his career, such at is was went down the toilet, then he is reduced to making ignorant accusations againt the VP, and everyone just laughs.
You can see Bruce Willis kill him in that movie about the autistic kid.
"This is a recording...ATTENTION PASSENGERS -- thank you for flying Ron Brown Airlines on its maiden voyage...
"The lone non-licenced suicidal alcohol pilot reminds you not to pay attention to the lack of stewardess service, the non-existent visibility, thick fog, and low altitude as he foolishly attempts to negotiate through the high and perilous mountain crevices... "
"The keg of beer is at the back of the plane."
Got to disagree with you on that one. I thought Baldwin was great in the role. That was before he morphed into the psycho pig he is now. I would rather watch a church burn than anything he is in (with the exception of Hunt For Red October and Team America: World Police).
He hasn't reached it yet.
That is fantastic!!!!
Before or after...he is an ugly!
LOL! I love it.
