Cheney campaigns for Allen; has to be snuck in via back door
ice President Dick Cheney made a quick trip into Northern Virginia yesterday to raise money for the campaign of U.S. Sen. George Allen.

The Allen campaign did not announce the visit, made to a private home in McLean. It was announced on the vice president's daily schedule.

Polls show that Cheney is one of the most unpopular politicians in the country.

"It is embarrassing that Allen has to sneak the president and vice president through the back door in Virginia," said Kristian Denny Todd, a spokeswoman for Webb.

1. Maybe it is because Bush/Cheney are war criminals and no one likes
them but racist Allen. I hope he loses in a landslide. I wonder if they talked about Bush's new powers and who they want to lock up first.

6. Have You Ever Asked A Republican,How They Feel About Cheney And Rumsfeld?
They will tell you they can't stand them or Bush should fire them. Next they tell you they think Bush is doing a good job, considering... Finally, they play the blame Clinton or congress game.... At this point you realize it is hopeless to argue.

Sometimes Allen just as to take what he can.

9. What an insult for him to be compared to Darth Vader.
At least Darth had the balls to not have to sneak around like this snarling fuckwit.

10. Just like that chickenhawk snuck out of serving his country in Vietnam
Too bad we cannot sneak him into Iraq, but we better hurry since the insurgents are on their last throes.

14. I think it would be cool if Cheney got to the point where he had to travel
around and campaign from inside an iron lung. Then he'd be like a character from a Coen Bros. movie.

Even more than he already is.

15. Felix doesn't want Webb to have pics of him w/Darth. Webb campaign
needs to make this REAL public. This will help get out the very important N.VA voters. We hate him.
