Dick Cheney, the most powerful VP ever -- some say he is the real president -- was on Face the Nation today. None of the questions I wanted answered were asked, so I'll ask them here:
1) What exactly were you doing hanging around the edge of the Rose Garden while Bush was holding a press briefing the other day? How often do you hang out at the edges? Are you monitoring? What happens when Bush says something you don't agree with?
2) What really happened when you were hunting? That story alone would make any price of admission worthwhile. I'd especially like to know why so much time passed between the accident and the reporting of it. How about it? I'll even buy the beer.
3) A number of your advisers worked on the PNAC the group that advocated for American dominance in the world, the Middle East in general and going to war in Iraq in particular. When did you decide to invade Iraq?
4) Americans are pretty fed up with the War, how it happened, the past four years and the incredible amount of money, resources and especially the sacrifice required of our military. We now have a military stretched beyond its limits and are now less secure than ever at home. What would you do different now?
5) How badly do you want to drop a nuke on Iran or Syria?
6) Do you use e-mail?
7) Can we go hunting?

1. It can't be fun having to defend the indefensible all the time. My guess is that Vice President Cheney is looking forward to 2009 as much as any democrat.

2. Don't go hunting with him unless you're a loyal bushie - or else!

3. I'd like to ask Dick Cheney why he never served in Vietnam.
I want to know who was invited to the VP masion to the "energy" conference at the beginning of the Bush admin. back in 2001. I want to know the agenda and details of the meeting. I suspect they were discussing the spoils of the Iraq oil after the war he was already planning.
I want to know why Americans should pay so much in lives and treasure to free Iraq's people. Dick Cheney doesn't strike me as the benevolent type.
I want to know how much money he is still taking from Halibuton.
I want to know why he thinks its ok for Haliburton to use a loop-hole to do business in Iran.
I want to know what he did exactly for five years at the American Enterprise Institute.
I want to know why he testified on video tape that Arthur Anderson was a "creative" accounting firm.
I want to know why he thinks the American people should trust a man who has told so many lies about the results coming out of Iraq.
I want know why he thinks its ok to out a CIA undercover operative.
I want to know what is his definition of a traitor.
I know how to spell traitor--Cheney. I consider Dick Cheney the worst American traitor in the history of our country. All done for personal and corporate profits at the expense of innocent Americans and Iraqis'. Shame on you Dick Cheney, you sicken the soul of America.

4. I WANT TO ASK MR VP WHATS HE CAN DO WITH ALL THAT MONEY IF HE DIES OF A HEART ATTACK OR BLOOD CLOT?

5. I believe it is a known fact that Mr. Cheney took 5 ()five) draft deferments during the Vietnam Draft, because as I have read, he had "other things to do"
At least he did not get into the Air Natl Guard ahead of hundreds of others, (Because his Father made a phone call) and indicated on his application that he did not want Overseas Duty, Such as our present Decider did. And then was AWOL for last two years of his Air Force Natl Guard Service. Inso far as Cheney is Concerned, I also believe he receives an amount in the Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars from Haliburton each year for some kind of Back Pay, or Severance, I am not really sure of the reason for this, although I also believe it is illegal for an elected official to still have any kind of affiliation for past Employee's companies.
I heartily agree that this man is the Worst Vice President we have had in the history of these United States. He is too arrogant and has a one/track mind.

8. Questions to DICK:
Where did you learn how to use firearms? Because it obviously wasn't in the military.
Who paid for you to graduate college?
How can you send this nation's youth to war, while you haven't fought yourself?
Where do you get the nerve?
Do you like to give it to the country in the ass?
Do you like to take it in the ass?
How do you plan on spending your eternity in hell?
Being as "Christian" as you claim to be, how many times a year do you go to church?
How rich is too rich?
Even thought your not a vet/soldier, how about you get your blood clot treated at Walter Reed next time?
What is your greatest fear? How can we use it to get rid of you?
In person, ss Karl Rove the fat, disgusting pig that he looks and acts like?
Where did you learn to be a puppetmaster (I.E. Bush)?

11. Cheney never looks anyone in the eye when speaking to them or answering the questions presented to him.Imagine hiring him to do some sort of sevice for you and he is looking elswhere when one asks if he is sure he can provide the services he claims to be selling? Wow He is our VP picked by our President that serves us. Great job Voters.
