Cheney: My book will have ‘heads exploding’ in D.C.

    Unfortunately, a lot of innocent people's heads have literally exploded due to Cheney's policies.
     
  2. Dick Cheney is the type of jerk who demands loyalty from others but shows none himself. I'm sure we'll see his lack of loyalty to others throughout this book.

    I've long thought Bush might have been a decent president if he had made a better VP choice. Bush allowing Cheney to run roughshod is one of the biggest disappointments to me in the last 25 years.

    Bush wouldn't make a decent janitor.

    I'd love to see this book head to the $1.99 rack in a week.

    Also very funny that he's pitching it in an NBC interview. Goddamn liberal media strikes again.

    Cheney's always been a smart operator who knew how to play to the media. Who else would leak something to the NY Times then use that "story" as proof that action was needed without disclosing that he was the original source? Who else would time his book's publication around the 10th anniversary of 9/11? Who else would wait three years to complete his memoir allowing him time to settle all of the scores from earlier books from members of the administration? And time to second-guess how the succeeding administration handled his unfinished business.
    I really would have liked to have read the chapter on bin Laden that was written before the Seals road trip to Abbottabod.

    Every single Republican Presidential candidate must be ready to turn a microwave oven on right next to Cheney and his pacemaker. If there's one thing they don't want, it's a lot of publicity for the previous administration's least popular figure. They're hoping to shove 2001-2008 down the memory hole, and who can blame them?

    Take him at his word. He made that one guy's head explode with a light load of birdshot.

    Welch no longer runs General Electric, and GE no longer is majority owner of NBC. Do try again.

    Say what you want, but Dick Cheney was a pretty good dictator while he lasted.

    Drudge claims to have exclusive excerpts...

    Miller testified that it was Libby who told her that Plame worked for the CIA. Libby testified that Cheney instructed him, before his meeting with Miller, to "get everything out" about l'affair Wilson. And Time's Daniel Cooper testified that it was Libby — shortly after that "get it out" edict — who confirmed to him that Plame was CIA.

    And Cheney's still playing the "it wasn't me" game. Ugh.

    I beg to differ. So, in his estimation we might as well carpet bombed the entire Middle East, get it all done at one time.
