Is Dick Cheney Alive?
Has anybody seen or heard anything from him this week? Has his office even issued a statement?

Have I just missed him on TV explaining how he's involved in this disaster (no pun intended)?

Doesn't the media find it odd that he's not around?

Is it just me?

2. There's an APB out for him.
He's working with Halliburton to see how they can maximize his options in light of this crisis.

5. He is scheduled for a fundraiser later this month in MO
Cheney to hold St. Louis fundraiser for Talent

SAM HANANEL

Associated Press


WASHINGTON - Vice President Dick Cheney will host a major fundraiser for Sen. Jim Talent in September, as the Missouri Republican gears up for a challenge from Democratic State Auditor Claire McCaskill.

Talent spokesman Rich Chrismer confirmed Wednesday that Cheney would host the event in St. Louis on Sept. 19, less than three weeks after McCaskill launched her bid to unseat the first term senator.

Chrismer declined to state how much the event would raise. Talent already holds a sizable advantage over McCaskill with about $3.4 million in his war chest. That includes more than $1 million from a June event that President Bush attended in St. Louis.

"We expect the event with the vice president to be very successful," Chrismer said.

8. Who cares about Cheney. Where's Fats Domino?
Cheney is a worthless fuck with no redeeming value.

Fats is/was a treasure.

9. He was due to arrive in Alberta, Canada, I believe, to visit the
OIL SANDS! I don't know if this was cancelled but I suspect not. His priority is consistent as well as despicable.

Cheney joins the oil sands pilgrimage

10. What was the fist line of defense in Iraq? The Oil Ministry...Not the
Iraqis people, whose 'freedom' we care so much about! NOLA is Cheney's second Iraq, which he had planned on long before 9/11 gave him an excuse to do so. 25% of US oil is in NO. Decline aid for correction of their levee system and outdated pumps, wait for a hurricane (or make one happen by seeding the clouds), deny people aid, wait for them to revolt, call in military service, and Voila! Our own citizens, hardworking taxpayers (unlike B*'s ilk) are now in a state under seige.

Cheney's sitting back and gloating about this. He is evil, and cares NOTHING for people.

all the chaos he and his pals have either caused or chose to ignore.

16. the rumor that he would run in '08
