1. Just heard it on MSNBC, too n/t

[NRaleighLiberal]

2. I am always reminded of Thumper (Bambi's friend) at times like these...

"If you don't have something good to say..." etc.

[opihimoimoi]

3. He was Fucking himself again??? Fuck that Toad POS....

[DemoTex]

4. I pray for his speedy recovery.

Harry Crews: "Pray in one hand and shit in the other and see which hand fills up first."

[LLStarks]

5. Resting at GW Hospital.

[rateyes]

biting my tongue.

6. Per your request. "to stay classy"....a little musical accompaniment

to motivate us all ;)

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go

To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star

This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far

To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause

And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest

And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star

7. I understand the urging to stay classy

Beyond the wishes of men and women is the reality of karma. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. What happens to Cheney is predictable. He will get back what he gave out in his life, one way or another, this life or next.

[JuniperLea]

20. Indeed...

Well said.

[bdamomma]

31. ..................

well said x2

[Chemisse]

8. I don't want to wish bad health on anyone

Especially when they have not paid for their crimes yet. But I will be happy if he shuts the fuck up for a while.

[XemaSab]

9. I hope the pains cease quickly

:P

[DemoTex]

12. Well put!

[JuniperLea]

10. The Cosmos' will be done...

I wish him no harm.

He's been "corrected" by many in the press lately, most recently by Colin Powell: “To suggest that somehow we have become much less safer because of the actions of the administration, I don’t think that’s borne out by the facts,” Powell told CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday.

That may be hard to take... Cheney isn't used to being countered... certainly not from "his own side."

[dgibby]

16. Maybe that's the cause of his pain. n/t

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

23. or Colin Powell

[CTyankee]

30. Well, that is the part ofour "living well" being the best revenge.

I live and let live. I don't have this life that he has, all revenge and bitterness. It is no big deal to me. He does not controlmy life nor I his. So what on earth do we care....really?...what goes around, comes around, right?...

[barbtries]

11. i had to bite my tongue.

cause i'm better than that.

[Beaverhausen]

13. Did anyone hear RFK Jr. this morning on Stephanie Miller talking about Cheney?

he said he spokewith people who have known him a long time and that after his heart attack (I guess a big one) his personality really changed and he got really paranoid.

[JuniperLea]

26. This syndrome is well documented...

Google "heart surgery personality change" and you'll find a lot.

There are some RWers trying to say that this has happened to Bill Clinton... maybe it did, but I think, as many of the medical stories will tell you happens, it was temporary. He seems to be keeping his lips zipped recently.

I took my dogs to the family vet my grandfather used for years... my dog at the time was very docile, but seemed to be a good judge of character... he snapped at the doc (didn't bite, just snapped a warning) and the vet said, in front of my three kids (all under the age of 12 at the time), "This dog needs taken out in a field and beat in the head with a board until he dies."

Compassionate, no? I later learned his personality changed drastically after heart surgery.

Same happened to an elderly neighbor... but he was just paranoid... he had me lock up some valuables in my china cabinet... then came over daily to check on them. I convinced him to get a safety deposit box... then he drove the bank crazy instead.

I think Cheney was born evil... but it's likely he got worse with his heart surgery.

14. No. Comment. (But, my God I'd like to say something.) nt

[Goldstein1984]

15. I have a confession...

I made a little bald doll with a familiar sneer;
I stuck pins in it;
I microwaved it;
I threw it and had my dogs fetch it;
This is probably all my fault.

[Mojambo]

17. I am entirely indifferent on whether Dick Cheney lives or dies.

I don't wish him the best. I don't wish him the worst.

[devilgrrl]

18. What's inside his chest?

It can't be a heart.

[hlthe2b]

19. Toyota electronics?

Bad... very bad.. shame on me :spank:

[Politicalboi]

22. "stay classy now"

Party Pooper. LOL! I will only say this. I will keep my fingers crossed. LOL!

[eleny]

24. I recommend the deep fried butter...

What?!

[indy legend]

25. His seat in hell is warm and waiting for him.

[surrealAmerican]

27. Perhaps this health scare will cause him to reconsider ...

... his goals in life, and make him try to atone for his past mis-deeds.

Well, if he wasn't Dick Cheney it might.

[malaise]

28. I'll try to stay classy

but should I chill that champagne yet?

[eleny]

32. It's DUzy heaven around here tonight

:rofl:

[TheCowsCameHome]

29. Maybe it was Brown's vote today that brought it on.

[jonathon]

33. Well, at least we know it isn't his heart...

He doesn't have one.
