RE: RIP Dick Cheney
Anybody notice that the "left" social idiots , who asked us to tone down our rhetoric, are basically going after Cheney with every name in the book...

But if we were to say something about Biden , "you're evil and all you can do is namecall!"


IMO, cheney will forever be linked with the damnable Patriot Act, but he was the right man for his time, it was just that when times were changing, he wasn't able to change his opinion along with them.. (The temporary death of the "neo-con".)

Of course, they are. Because they suck.

Not the guy who would’ve been at the top of my list, but still a mainstream, consensus choice. For reasons that I never quite understood, Senate Dems chose to draw a line against their former colleague and staged a rather ugly scene, eventually defeating the nomination on the floor of the Senate.
Their war against Tower was kind of inexplicable. Maybe they were mad at him for turning Texas Republican. Until Bill Clements was governor in 1978, John Tower in the special 1961 election to replace LBJ was the only Republican elected statewide since Reconstruction.
Who knows? Obviously, John Tower did something, somewhere along the journey, that turned Sam Nunn into a blood-enemy. No one but Sam Nunn, apparently, has any idea what that “something” was. As far as I am aware, Nunn has never publicly revealed the inside story. Tower himself died in a plane crash in 1991, professing bewilderment about the whole thing up to the end. He was not considered “controversial” while serving in the Senate, and actually got some good reviews from anti-GOP media for the “Tower Report” (autopsy of Iran-Contra affair). Bush/41 was not looking to pick a fight with that nomination, but he sure got one.

How old was he anyway?

There are a lot of mothers and fathers that when they go visit their sons grave....

Charlie Kirk was a good person. Dick Cheney was one of the worst.

Bill Clinton said he rarely agreed, but he respected that Dick Cheney always worked hard for what he believed was the good of America.

I have a feeling his DJT hatred was more personal. No thinking conversative could vote for Kamala and all she stood for.

I love that meme where the guy says, '"oh that's too bad" and now in other news.' That's the way we should react to someone we don't like because reacting negatively won't change a thing.

I may be a hypocrite but the ONLY person that I would probably say bad things about when he kicked the bucket would be Soros, it can't be a sin if you're glad satan's minion joins him in hell.

One thing few consider is how radically the man's life could have changed if he would have went by the name Rick Cheney. We'll never know for sure though.

This is either the greatest troll post in the history of time, or I have officially found the biggest retard on this board. Hopefully he shares a room in hell with Kissinger, and they save a place for John Bolton once he leaves this earth.

I don't speak for the "left" I speak for me, screw Biden his 40 years in the Senate include being loudly wrong on every single issue, being completely corrupt, never seeing a war he didn't want to be a part of, and the crime bill. Name call Slow Poke all you want, my only issue with it is you clowns don't trash him for the decades of evil sh*t he did, you probably agree with most of the things he stood for from the 70's till becoming VP.

My opinion is he came from a generation that liked war. Thought it was a sign of American strength & there's 'an enemy' out there that doesn't like us. A 'product of his time.'

I think that may be well & good, but it doesn't mean you're a conservative

Everybody wanted the Afghan War. We were already at war with Iraq whether you admitted it or not. They were firing at our planes every day. Both wars were won with minimal casualties.

It was the peace that was the issue. The Bush/Cheney problem with those wars is they thought they could rebuild tribal nations into an American model. They should have gotten in and gotten out instead of getting involved in an endless series of tribal wars.

I had nothing against Cheney and thought he was a tough hombre.

I did see a bumper sticker back when he was VP that said “Dick Cheney before he dicks you”

Lolol

Prior to DJT, I don't think the left hated anyone more than Dick Cheney. It was funny to see them slobbering all over him when he and Liz abandoned Republican and conservative politics.
