God bless Dick Cheney.

[Ouderkirk]

How I wish Chaney had run in 2008

[nmh]

I wish Cheney could have gotten to GWB on that one.

GWB was quite moderate ... on way too many issues.

Cheney = backbone

I’d like to see him go after Powell. He has the cujones to take him apart.

[HangnJudge]

Agree

No more socialism support
no more nanny state support
No more income redistribution
— without the expressed personal consent of the taxed

If someone wants a program,
they are welcome to pay for it themselves

All Power not specifically vested in the Federal Gov.
By the Constitution, not the Supreme Court
is reserved toward the States and Local Communities

Cheney is correct. We lost the last election in part because we had a moderate running for President. I wish that these Republicans who have been advocating a shift to the center would shut up and realize this. A return to conservative principles and abandoning the notion that we can be civil towards the democrats is what will help the Republican party win elections.

I’ll never forget Dick Cheney taking apart that pansy John Edwards in their debate.

[SoldierDad]

Ultimately we will all have to answer to God. “Moderating” so that a Repub can get elected is tantamount to declaring that God is not important IMHO. Good luck to anyone who takes that path.

I have moved away from political party identification. I am an American with Christian values and a strong belief in following the provisions of the Constitution as written, not interpreted by progressives with a belief that it is a “living” document. Nor do I hold with a shifting, relativistic moralism that departs from the values set forth in the only Book that matters to mankind as a whole. The Republican Party abandoned those of us with similar beliefs years ago. Therefore I can’t support it as an organized party.

[Jeff Chandler]

Cheney doesn’t know anything about anything. Now Megan McCain, I saw her on the morning shows, and she’s a smart one. She has Gravitas. Big Time.

[PGalt]

Hooray Dick Cheney! Thanks for your continued service to this great nation, sir.

Jeff C
I sure hope you forgot to add the sarc to your post accidentally.

[LucyT]

Ping.

[HangnJudge]

I sure hope you forgot to add the
sarc to your post accidentally.

I think even the most dense Freeper would have
mentally added the /sarc tag

[Jeff Chandler]

I sure hope you forgot to add the sarc to your post accidentally.

Is it really necessary?

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

"I think periodically we have to go through one these sessions. It helps clear away some of the underbrush … some of the older folks who’ve been around a long time — like yours truly — need to move on and make room for that young talent that’s coming along," he said.

There's a bear in the woods.

Cheney’s only 67. Will be 72 during the 2012 election. Darn sure not too old for a strong statesman, his sticky ticker has worked without a glitch for some time, WHY NOT CHENEY-PALIN 2012?

[Mr. K]

WHY DIDNT YOU RUN FOR PRES?????
