Under fire from Democrats, Cheney pushes back

[musette_sf]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - With Vice President Dick Cheney under mounting fire, his office together with the White House and the Republican Party responded with a coordinated counter-attack on Tuesday, accusing Sen. Harry Reid of malicious conduct "unbecoming" his role as Democratic leader.

The White House response -- unusual in its hostile tone and coordination -- was sparked by Reid's charges that Cheney manipulated pre-war intelligence about Iraq and was "behind" the leaking of classified information to discredit White House critics.

I just don't want to think about Cheney pushing back... eeewwwww...

[Skink]

1. Does Cheney think he's gonna get a pardon?

[sabra]

2. that is a very disturbing picture

:-)

[UpInArms]

24. truly - is that a colostomy bag?

EEWWWW!

[savemefromdumbya]

36. I was wondering the same thing!

[barb162]

43. maybe it's his you know what

EWWWWW

[ernstbass]

51. Prosthesis??

[free_spirit82]

3. My eyes....MY EYES!!!! n/t

[Der Blaue Engel]

10. Gahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

[Skink]

I didn't see the picture...

:yoiks: :wtf:

[musette_sf]

15. that might be a good thing :-)

you could suffer permanent damage

[Skink]

11. I didn't see the picture...

:yoiks: :wtf:

[ixion]

4. unusual in its hostile tone?

everything they do is hostile. :crazy:

[Mad_Dem_X]

57. Exactly - when are they NOT hostile?

I'm tired of repukes saying that Dems are "angry," "mean-spirited," etc. These s.o.b.'s wrote the book on disgusting behavior!

[princehal]

5. Conduct Unbecoming?

What an ass.

[bettyellen]

19. trying hard not to sound like a chicken hawk...

and failing.

[info being]

53. Conduct unbecoming is VP leaking classified information

[Bark Bark Bark]

6. Oh, Mr. Cheney...

...your Neuticles are showing.

(I thought things were bad when Bob Dole kept referring to his wife by her initials, the same as those of "erectile dysfunction"--which of course tied into his Viagra commercials...)

If you don't get the joke... http://www.neuticles.com

[brer cat]

7. Mr. f* you thinks Reid's conduct is "unbecoming"??? n/t

[Lubernaut]

8. Will someone please get him a lunch box

so he doesn't have to tote his food around in his underwear?

[Oceansaway]

13. LOL....toooooooo funny !!!

[sniffa]

9. bring it on!!

[WorseBeforeBetter]

12. He can push back all he wants -- isn't his approval rating...

down to something like 19%? And what the hell is that mess in his pants?!?!

[calimary]

27. Yes. NINETEEN percent!

I think the "go fuck yourself" is gonna be on the other foot, now. Especially after the election results tonight. His pals don't have a lot to cheer about, or to spin. And day by day he (and the rest of 'em) winds up painting himself farther into a corner.

He and bush and the entire GOP, for that matter, have reached the point where they are NO LONGER negotiating from a position of strength. NO LONGER. That's over. Especially now. bush is officially a lame duck after tonight, especially when he put his own little dick on the line for Kilgore in Virginia - and Kilgore LOST. EVERYBODY was reading things into that one. EVERYBODY was watching that one. EVERYBODY was scanning the fine print and whatever secret messages there were between the lines. And it's all snake eyes. Just like cheney's.

Go ahead and try pushing, dickie-boy. You ain't so tough. Not anymore. And you've made an AWFUL LOT of enemies along the way. You'll meet the same ones on your way down that you shat upon or bullied or intimidated or lied to or cheated or ripped off or ran over on your way up.

[Mend]

14. my God, he has one of the penis implants that stays

pumped up....he picked the largest size made by the looks of it.

[tularetom]

18. Nah he just took a dump in his pants

[DoyBoy]

46. He just has a hard-on because...

they're ramping things up for Syria.

"Dick" sums him up perfectly!:evilgrin:

[CottonBear]

28. That is it according to a Randi Rhodes' (I think) caller who was a nurse

at the hospital where the operation was done...Randi (I think it was her show) cut her off and said it was not appropriate to discuss private medical information in a public forum. His heart and circulatory problems would make necessary such a procedure. I don't really care to further discuss the issue.

Cheney is an evil man. That is what we should discuss.

[bunny planet]

16. Gawd, how I hate that picture. Aside from.....you know.......the bulge....

his head looks like either Beavis or Butthead (most likely the latter, can't remember which is which). Is he drinking milk? I thought he only drank blood.

[Raiden]

17. You know you're gonna fuckin' pay for my therapy don't ya?

Jesus, that's disgusting... :banghead: :hide: :puke:

[hopein08]

20. Pot. Meet Kettle. n/t

[bettyellen]

21. "the gloves are off", you Dick! you made the "new rules" and we're just

starting to play with them.

[bhunt70]

22. I'm glad I wasn't the only one to notice which way Dick leans.

[CoffeeCat]

23. Ohmygoodness--he borrowed the "thingee" that Bush had stuffed...

...down his pants when he landed on the aircraft carrier during "Mission Accomplished!"

Man, do these guys keep that thing hanging in a closet--and they take turns using it for important photo-ops?

Maybe it's a colostomy bag?

Sorry--any possibility is going to be outrageously offensive.

[AndyTiedye]

32. It's a Pickle

Sometimes they forget to take it out of the refrigerator in advance
of the photo op, so it's reeeealy cold.

That explains some of Bush** and Cheney's facial expressions.

[barb162]

44. cucumber or zucchini, extra large

[jamesinca]

49. Hopefully they wash it off after using it

Otherwise it would be like wearing somebody elses dirty underwear.

[slay]

25. I see why they call him "Dick" now

:wow:

[stevedeshazer]

26. He scares me

It'll take a wooden stake.

[fooj]

29. Unbecoming? How dare that evil, maniacal rat bastard!

:grr:

[goforit]

30. WH's "unusual in its hostile tone "? WTF?...Hostile 24/7 all day all nite.

[Carolab]

31. WOW, looks like Unca Dick

really COULD go F*** himself!

[Doremus]

33. That looks like my neighbor with a hernia.

Poor guy, had to have his pants specially made to accommodate his, um, bulge because he was too scared to have the surgery.

Scared chickenhawk ... yeah, hernia, that's it.

[Gman]

34. Not one word denies what Reid said is true

Not one word in the entire article.

No one is denying what Reid claims is true.

[daleo]

35. You are entirely correct.

A classic non-denial denial.

[cliss]

37. I'm just going to come right out and say it -

Dick Cheney is gay. He's a repressed, "closet" gay, a man who's full of self-loathing.

It's become crystal clear to me that Cheney is the one who's pushing for torture. The web site Counter Punch says that Cheney is America's "Marquis de Sade", a man who has pushed cruelty and murder without guilt.

Now, don't get me wrong. There's nothing wrong with gays. It's the repressed gays that have the problem.

And by the way, I don't believe that's Cheney's weiner in the photo above. I think it's a colostomy bag.

[lumpy]

55. Urinary Incontinence

sometimes requires what is commonly known as a 'pee bag'.

[fearnobush]

38. Will some tell him to remove that full diaper from his Pants!

[Doremus]

39. Sheesh! If that's a colostomy bag, doesn't he ever empty the damn thing?

What's he toting around there - like 2 lbs. of crap?

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Hygienically challenged in addition to all his other faults.

Ick.

[flordehinojos]

40. "malicious conduct unbecoming his role as Democratic leader?"

since when has dick cheney given a darn about conduct, malicious or not, unbecoming ...??????????

only when said unmalicious conduct speaks truth to power against him, his holy war, his infantile charge in diapers and his greed for oil.

bastard, amoral liar!

[Erika]

41. Cheney pushes back?

Get real. He's got ice water in his veins and our troops blood on his hands.

[Spiffarino]

42. Fixed

[barb162]

45. LOL, that's great, you have talent!

[cliss]

52. LOL! That's more

like it! Good job.

[Hekate]

47. Cornered rats can be dangerous

Still nice to see him cornered.

Unflattering picture, that. You sure someone hasn't -- um -- enhanced it?

Hekate

[kevinbgoode]

48. Oh please, Dick. . .

Now how can you expect us REAL Americans to believe the word of a man who produced a lesbean daughter with a wife who writes lesbean porn? :-)

[Polemonium]

50. HA HA, keep pushing if that's the best you got

My favorite part: When the naked emperor still doesn't know that everyone can see him nude.

Number of lies required to loose ones close in todays big money, short attention span climate = ? well it's in the thousands anyhow.

[Tight_rope]

54. I can't believe he's mad because Reid told the truth...

:sarcasm:

I loved watching the MSM whores spin Reid's comments over and over again last night on the TV. It was one of the best night of TV news in a long time.:evilgrin:

[babydollhead]

56. donkey kong

[katty]

58. F/U Cheney

[truthisfreedom]

59. hey dick... go f^©< yourself.

[Kierkegaard]

60. That's rich...

Someone who stands up and tells the truth is guilty of 'conduct unbecoming,' but telling a Senator to 'go fuck himself' isn't. Wow. Someone needs to rebut this garbage with that little jewel.

[jazzjunkysue]

61. You know, I had forgotten all about that photo. Now I have to have my

memory wiped, all over again.

Geesh.
