What does a man who has been legally dead a few times and has had to use a mobile heart to live, and a man who straps a dog on top of his car and leaves him there even after he gets sick and has diarrhea all over the car have in common? Well, how about Cheney and Romney? These two men have plenty in common.
Both are as rich as God, both are crooks who have off-shore bank accounts and have headed companies (Halliburton and Bain) that sucked America dry. One is called Darth Vader for being a war profiteer and sending soldiers to their death in needless wars and the other is called Daddy Warbucks for all the millions he has hidden all over the world.
In news that should shock no one, Dick Cheney gave his endorsement to Mitt Romney at a fundraiser at Cheney's home. But in case a photo of the two of them shaking hands got out, they had Romney come into Cheney's home where he could not be photographed. Why would Mitt take his endorsement and the rumored 4 millions dollars they raised and not have his picture taken with him? Because Romney's base does not read newspapers. They may well look at pictures somewhere and remember Cheney and Iraq and Halliburton and think bad thoughts, so they came in the through the back door. Slick, huh?
According to the NY Times, you need to understand what Higgs boson is before you can figure out Romney's finances. He was at Bain when they created jobs, but took a leave of absense when they were out-sourcing jobs, even though they paid him a six-figure salary for not being there. This from the NY Times: While he was in Utah getting the luge runs in shape, Romney was also still getting a six-figure salary for being a Bain “executive.” Perhaps for Mitt, that was just the going-away equivalent of a monogrammed briefcase. Although it does sort of take the steam out of his principled refusal to accept any money from the Olympics until his turnaround was successfully completed.
'Cheney said that his years in the White House give him perspective on the qualities needed for the presidency'. "Looking back and reflecting on that, I think there’s only one man to be president of the United States who meets those requirements, and that’s Gov. Mitt Romney.'' What a crock of shit. He hates Romney and in his heart, or hearts, who knows how many he's had, Cheney would much rather have someone with who is as dumb as his old boss, George 43.
He would much rather have someone his old buddies, such as Norquist, Wolfowitz, and Perle could handle than a Mormon that has his own crew of crooks. I am not religious man in any shape or form, so I could care less what religion Romney is. But there are higher-ups in the Mormon Church that are just as bad as Cheney's cast of nattering nabobs of negativism and helpless, hysterical hypochondriacs. (damn, I've always wanted to write those words) So why did he endorse him?
The same way that Bill Clinton gritted his teeth and shook Barack Obama's hand and endorsed him after he defeated his wife in one of the roughest and toughest democratic presidential primaries in our nations history. They both went for the throat and when President Obama won, Bill and Hillary both campaigned for him in what had to be one of the hardest things they ever had to do. But when Obama named Hillary his Secretary of State, it surprised the Clintons as much as the rest of the world. Romney does not now, nor will he ever have the balls to make a decision like that if he is elected president. Bet on it.

Spiro Agnew was a larcenous cretin who got what he deserved, mostly because of the nattering nabobs. Too bad that scumbag Cheney won't.
mitt? for a grown man? ludicrous.
cheney i wont even talk about.
Walter, you're right. Maybe cap it off with "Pink Houses".
CG, you got that right. No conscious at all and will kill for a dollar,
Smittee, I got a little vomit in my mouth when I typed Cheney's name. Had to go gargle.
mac, yep, ole dope-smokin' Long-Haired Country Boy Charlie Daniels is a conservative republican and proud of it. Maybe him and Ted Nugent bar-b-que out. I hear Black Bear tastes like chicken!
Love the title too.
Thank you for making me think!
Good rant.
Nope.
Too f--k--g stupid. - except when it comes to stealing.

Unfortunately Jmac's probably right :-/. Although I will say that I think Charlie makes use of many more of his brain cells than the Nuge does. I can't pick at him too much, he's done very well for a local charity outfit that takes little to no government resources for support - so at least Charlie walks his talk and I can respect that :).
Rated for hot places and hand baskets.
