on dick

So former Vice President Dick "go fuck yourself" Cheney is "offended as hell" that he might find himself in some legal hot water over the Attorney General's investigations into CIA torture tactics that he himself approved of. See, Dick Cheney has viewed himself as being above the Law for some time now so I believe he genuinely is deluded enough to feel he has some valid point of contention in this but the truth of the matter remains that Dick Cheney broke the Law and he should have to pay for it like the rest of us poor blighters who groan under the weight of the American Justice system. But ol' Dick is rich and his wealth can buy him out from under any legal jackpot so just why is he bitching? Oh sure, Cheney dresses up his bitching in national security issues to make it seem like he cares about America more than his own wrinkley skin but we know that isn't true because he was part of the crew that allowed 9/11 to happen and made huge profits off the so called "good wars" of Iraq and Afghanistan not to mention his lucrative deal with the U.S. government to build all those detention cells down in Guantanamo Bay. So what are you trying to tell us Dick? What are you afraid the American people might find out about? When Karl Rove approached George Dubya Bush he already had key players like Dick Cheney in place. So while Dick Cheney began selling of pieces of Iraq to the highest bidders in the world and planning his administration over the American people, Rove pitched his scheme to Dubya who ate it up. Dubya would have to do no real work or decision making as President all he had to do was be the face of the White House just as he was the face as governor of Texas where his staff strip mined the state of every natural resource they could get their greedy hands on. Dubya was skilled at doing nothing and winning over simple folk with his not-quite-right Texas accent and charm so this would be easy for him. As for decision making, it would be split between Rove and acting President Cheney. So for 8 years Dubya kicked up his feet, had a drink every now and then and vacationed, vacationed, vacationed even after 9/11 happened. Why? Well why not? Nothing at the White House was ever his problem after all. And if a few Americans like me thought that was inappropriate (a commander in chief should always be on duty during times of war especially when they go around procliaming themselves the war president) so what? Just call them disloyal aiders of the enemy and problem solved! So while Karl pushed his social agenda on America, ol' Dick Cheney went to work on his shadow government and if you don't believe Cheney was really in charge all I can ask is 'who was rushed to the bunker in an undisclosed location first?' while Bush circled the skies haplessly aboard Air Force One and there and there's your answer. Cheney had done a fantastic job of selling Iraq before he even hit office in 2000. Now all he needed was a war to make his schemes come true. Now folks if I have a list of Iraqi investors in my pocket and I needed an excuse to invade Iraq, what do you suppose I might be willing to do to insure that money makes it into my coffers? Worse still, this is all fact. Look it up yourself. It is a matter of public record. What would you do to make millions? What would Dick Cheney do? Well he might allow or help participate in a crime so unimagineable that no American would ever want to believe it even though there's a lot of reasons to be suspicious. Evidence goes overlooked because the American people need to believe terrorists attacked us on 9/11 rather than members of their own government! Unfortunately there's too much evidence to the contrary. From the Army helicopter that shot a missle into the Pentagon (you can see it on the doctored footage released by the FBI when you adjust the settings right) to yellow cake uranium to Cheney's staunch refusal to swear under oath about the events of 9/11 because of some imaginary executive priveliege cooked up just to keep him from testifying. And don't we all wish Clinton had executive priveliege? Anyway so Cheney is in deep but protected but needs to look and act the part of concerned acting president so he began to advance torture practices as sure proof the American government was taking this whole terrorism thing seriously and would stop at nothing to prevent another 9/11 (which he helped with). It's a famous strategy when a white person is involved with a crime to blame colored people and so that's what he did. Blamed the Arabs and tortured them to stop crimes he himself committed! So yeah, I imagine Cheney is a little upset that his war crimes might still come to light and he still might have to answer for them with what little life he has left pumping through his plastic heart. So shut up Dick and go fuck yourself. I for one would like to know exactly what you did during your illegitimate time in office. If you have nothing to hide, that shouldn't be a problem. But we all know you do have something to hide don't we you old fossil? Or to paraphrase Shakespeare, The old man doth protest to much, methinks.
