Has there ever been a more loathsome family than the Cheneys? |
|
And the hubris to demonstrate their hatred and dysfunction so aggressively. Boggles the mind (and makes me sick).
This rant courtesy of the NBC news spot on the Liz Cheney slime ad, and how Ken Starr (!!!!!!) among others came out against it.
Geesh...

1. Maybe the Phelps family edges them out by one hate-point. |

14. Hey, I just thought of something. |
|
Suppose Liz Cheney were killed in an unfortunate accident. Would the Westboro Church picket her funeral like they did Matthew Shepard's? What would Darth do?

Not just the Bush CRIME Family, of which Darth Cheney himself is a member, but with the Cheney's. only Darth himself has actually committed crimes (that we know of). Lynn and the daughters are evil and vile in their own right, but so far it's just words and rhetoric from them.
Not in the same league with the Bush Klan, which have committed actual crimes (many of them amounting to treason) at least as far back as World War I, when Samuel Bush made a shitload of money from the Remington Arms company. Oddly enough, a lot of those Remington rifles ended up in Russia, just in time for the little party they had over there in 1917.
So arguably, the Bush family, within one century, helped create the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and Al Qaeda.
Now that's a Hell of a record to beat.

15. And they reliably breed corruption, generation after generation |
|
Face it, this country has an oversupply of would be aristocrats and they're all cut from the same evil, corrupt pattern.

Hubris is just the right term. He is a nasty, hubris-ridden, sub-human, power hungry, misanthropic monster of a man Dick-Head just LOOKS evil, and he is probably several times more evil behind closed doors than in situations the public knows about. And, the members of his family are nearly if not just as evil as he is.

but not many. The Borgias and Medicis perhaps. Maybe the Phelps clan if we're feeling generous (as disgusting as the Phelps clan are, they haven't directly got anyone killed AFAIK).
