Dick Cheney, Vice President of the United
States, is an evil asshole. Not in the physical sense, we all got one of those, but in the
psychological sense. I can easily compare him with a sociopath, or a serial killer and
match up the signs 100%.
Yesterday I watched him give a speech at the Republican
National Lawyers Association lunch, that CSPAN covered, and he is so full of crap I could
barely contain my disgust. Here are his actual words followed by the reality:
"The President sent Congress a budget that meets the
nations priorities in a through and responsible way.".... "Any sound economic
policy begins with limiting the size, scope, and spending appetite of the federal
government.".... "We must also uphold the values that sustain our society:
limited government, personal responsibility, free enterprise, reverence for life, and
equal justice under the law."
Sounds good, and if he were sincere it probably wouldn't be
too bad, but he is not. He also talked about the need to create private accounts for
Social Security, how junk lawsuits need to be brought to an end, and how the voters gave
Bush a mandate to do all the rotten stuff he has been doing, but lets look at the above
quotes first:
"The President sent Congress a budget that meets the
nations priorities in a through and responsible way."
Analysis: Bush
sent Congress a budget that spends every penny of the Social Security surplus (almost $200
billion) and creates the largest budget deficits in our countries history (well over $500
billion). So is that responsible? His budget cuts funds for veterans, police,
fireman, children's health care, family planning services, highways, schools, and other
social programs. So are those really our priorities? I don't think so.

"Any sound economic policy begins with limiting the
size, scope, and spending appetite of the federal government."
Analysis: First
of all, this entire statement is totally untrue. A large healthy federal government can
provide the American people with a number of valuable services and protections if it is
led by good people, and clearly good leadership is where things have gone terribly wrong.
Secondly, Bush & Co. have greatly increased the size and scope of the federal
government. Federal spending is up almost 25% and their legislation on homeland security,
class action lawsuits, and un-funded mandates to the states have increased the scope of
the federal government.

"We must also uphold the values that sustain our
society: limited government, personal responsibility, free enterprise, reverence for life,
and equal justice under the law."
Analysis: Those
are proclaimed platforms and promises that GOP likes to tout, but they are far removed
from the reality that Bush, Cheney & Co. repeatedly demonstrate.
Bush, Cheney & Co. have shown disrespect
for all types of life. Their roll back of environment policies alone are killing lots of
life, only to be exceeded by their killing of humans in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Bush, Cheney & Co. have repeatedly
demonstrated a total lack of willingness to hold anyone in their administration
accountable for any of the huge failures they are responsible for. Starting with the
intelligence failures that led up to 9/11, the Abu Ghraib prison torture abuses, the
budget deficits, the unnecessary deaths of American soldiers and civilians in Iraq and
Afghanistan, the looting of the Social Security lockbox, the outing of a CIA agents
identity, the Enron corruption, the California energy rip-off, and the volumes of lies
that pour out of this administrations official's mouths. They have no shame and they
accept no responsibility for anything. The message this sends to the American people is
that it is up to them to hold these a-holes responsible for their crimes against humanity
and our democracy, otherwise we may be the next ones hanging from their meat-hooks.
Bush, Cheney & Co. clearly do not believe
in equal justice under the law, otherwise some heads would have already rolled for all the
corruption and immoral actions that this administration has perpetrated. I think they
would prefer some type of draconian roman justice for 99.9% of us, and the other .1% are
completely exempt. That is the type of mentality that develops when your daddy has always
gotten you out of trouble in the past and you have a big fat trust fund to back you up
after the people realize your just a big a-hole.
Finally, all his rhetoric about Social
Security reform, lawsuit reform, and mandates is just more smoke and mirrors that will
cost the American people dearly.
Dick Cheney can say anything he wants, and he does, but he is
a sick twisted evil little man. He is helping Bush & Co. ruin this country for all
future generations of the American people; that is for at least 99.9% of us. And we can't
let this a-hole and his a-hole friends get away with it.
Rigged elections have rendered the American people's voices
mute. The Democratic Party is nothing more than a colorful part of our history, and a
powerless annoyance to the ruthless GOP and its puppets in Congress. Therefore, it is all
up to us to save our own country.
Our country has been taken over and is being looted and
pillaged by a handful of shyster lawyers who are whoring themselves for a bunch of soiled
rotten rich kids and their trust funds. Kids who have turned into a bunch of fascist
blood-lusting thug adults. I think their Dads must have gotten together and planned this
ahead of time, don't you? Just like they planned the whole get rid of the estate
tax thing that Bush has been drooling over for the past four years.
We had better toughen up and learn how to fight back, or we better learn how
to live on our knees, because the mega wealthy families in American have great hunger and
more wealth and more power, and the well trodden corridors of Washington are starting to
fill up with the skulls of dead American boys and girls.
