Lookee here, Dickie made an observation that HURT our side 100 days before the election. Instead of beating up Obama he beat up Palin. Why the hell didn't he make an observation about Obama. God knows Obama is target rich.
Instead he wasted a precious sound bite beating up our side. Now granted you may not like Palin. Big deal. That DOES NOT EXCUSE POOR STRATEGY on Cheney's part. That sound bite played locally over the ALL country ALL freaking day.
It is obvious that you are a bit dense when it comes to Palin. SHE IS NOT RUNNING. SHE IS NOT IN CONTENTION FOR VP. WHY WASTE TIME TALKING ABOUT HER?
Exactly what don't you get? Cheney screwed the pooch big time here. It was a poorly timed attack against a Republican whom YOU DESPISE. I get that. But that DOES NOT excuse Cheney's very poor strategic choice of words 100 days before the election on national cable/TV replayed over and over again.
As for the so called wails and shrieks made by Palinbots, to the best of my knowledge, none of them got air time, UNLIKE Cheney's nasty attack on Palin.
Cheney's comment stating that Obama is worse than Carter DID NOT make the local news cycles. So, save your contempt for the Palin supporters. CHENEY'S PALIN ATTACK DID MAKE THE LOCAL NEWS CYCLES ALL DAY. DO YOU GET THAT NOW?????
Finally, whether I adore Palin or not IS NOT the point. The POINT that we are discussing is Cheney's timing of an attack on a conservative (whom you and Bill Mahre despise) 100 days before the election.
Do you get it now, or do you belong in Bill Mahre’s camp?

I agree wholeheartedly.
The man has been around the block, and knows what becomes a soundbite. There was no need to even answer a question about Palin.
As you said,he should have made the whole interview about Obama and his failures.
Palin had more executive experience than Obama,Biden and McCain combined. She was more ready to be President on Day One than any of these Senators.
She can never be forgiven for exposing the corrupt Republicans in Alaska.
At least Cheney’s daughter had the guts to say the right thing.
Her dad knows better, so I have to assume a message was being sent.

Well put! That’s what is so exasperating about this. Cheney doesn’t have to say anything, but here he goes and gives the jackals in the media a nice little kissy-kissy valentine to go on yet another day-long, anti-Palin/anti-conservative/anti-Tea Party orgy. It’s ammo to the enemy, to further their propagandistic agenda.
And, it happens time and time again... the GOP-establishment guys cozying up to the media scum to deep-six genuine conservatives. Palin has been on the receiving end of this constantly, to the jollies of the libs. From Barbara Bush telling her to stay the hell up in Alaska, to Krauthamer telling her to “leave the room” on the Obamacare issue (while he then totally repeats the message she expressed) to even Chris Christie rolling his eyes and making a stupid face when asked about Palin.
Palin has gone out of her way to speak well of GOP folks, abiding by Reagan’s 11th more than any other Republican out there, yet she’s constantly on the receiving end of these tawdry backstabs. It burns me up, and has ripped to shreds the respect I once held for the Party, which seems more populated by cowardly weasels than I ever imagined.

Oh my oh my, let's begin wading through your Chicago-style equine feces here:
Lookee here, Dickie made an observation that HURT our side 100 days before the election. Instead of beating up Obama he beat up Palin. Why the hell didn't he make an observation about Obama. God knows Obama is target rich.
Oh but of course, how could we forget that Dick Cheney is the Chuck Norris of politics. That's why he scares you so much. Get a clue, chicky-boo, he's only one man although a very significant man. He hasn't hurt conservatives, your teeth gnashing not withstanding.
Instead he wasted a precious sound bite beating up our side. Now granted you may not like Palin. Big deal. That DOES NOT EXCUSE POOR STRATEGY on Cheney's part. That sound bite played locally over the ALL country ALL freaking day.
Don't spew idiotic lies, nowhere have I said that I disliked Sarah Palin in fact I like her very much, I was among the first to call for a brokered convention in hopes of her becoming the nominee instead of Mitt-Witt. As for Dick Cheney's sound bite, you're displaying your own ignorance with your statement because if you knew anything about news cycles, you would know that after one "freaking day", a news item all but goes straight down the memory hole in the mind of the public.
It is obvious that you are a bit dense when it comes to Palin. SHE IS NOT RUNNING. SHE IS NOT IN CONTENTION FOR VP. WHY WASTE TIME TALKING ABOUT HER?
Sounds like YOU are the one with the dislike for Sarah Palin, the lady is a significant force in politics, she remains a highly paid political commentator on Fox News, and it matters not one whit if Dick Cheney makes a comment about her or not, there are MILLIONS of her supporters who refuse to talk about anyone else.
Exactly what don't you get? Cheney screwed the pooch big time here. It was a poorly timed attack against a Republican whom YOU DESPISE. I get that. But that DOES NOT excuse Cheney's very poor strategic choice of words 100 days before the election on national cable/TV replayed over and over again.
Don't be a dumb cluck. You're behaving just like the worst of Sarah's zombies, screaming that I "DESPISE" Sarah Palin all because I refuse to trash Dick Cheney who YOU clearly despise. Hey look: classic liberal projection on your part, assigning your emotions to others due to your own political myopia.
As for the so called wails and shrieks made by Palinbots, to the best of my knowledge, none of them got air time, UNLIKE Cheney's nasty attack on Palin.
"best of your knowledge", LOL - now that's a howler, you spend your days and nights monitoring the airwaves to see who got air time, and who didn't?
I'm sure. Be it air time or bandwidth time, Sarah's defenders have been out there beating the drums.
Cheney's comment stating that Obama is worse than Carter DID NOT make the local news cycles. So, save your contempt for the Palin supporters. CHENEY'S PALIN ATTACK DID MAKE THE LOCAL NEWS CYCLES ALL DAY. DO YOU GET THAT NOW?????
Screaming in cap letters does not validate your assertions, and your hand wringing over one "DAY" is laughable.
Finally, whether I adore Palin or not IS NOT the point. The POINT that we are discussing is Cheney's timing of an attack on a conservative (whom you and Bill Mahre despise) 100 days before the election.
Once again, I do not despise Sarah Palin, so shut your lying piehole about that. As for your adoration of Sarah Palin, you must adore her, otherwise you wouldn't be screaming murder most foul. Sarah herself would tell you to calm down and take a chill pill.
Do you get it now, or do you belong in Bill Mahres camp?
Grow up little girl. Bill has nothing to do with this and is irrelevant to the discussion, ya got that Rosie O'Donnell?

Bravo!! Well stated. Where's the clapping man at the theatre pic?!
Cheney lost a lot of ground AND respect with this. Shame on him.
