Potty mouth Cheney is running the world, right into the ground.

2. I agree. Thanks, great article
I have rarely agreed with Maureen Dowd before, but, it appears, that she's finally getting it. They really had to go entirely over the top to get her attention, but it may have been worth it, as this article will, hopefully, get national attention. And that's what we need, to finally have the "liberal media" in our corner, even if it's only for one story.:shrug:

The Big Dog needs to get his hands on this CENSORED and spank her in public!

4. Just One Quibble, Maureen
Bush was never the nice guy you make him out to be. Ask Texans who are trying to dig out from under his "benevolence".

It was nice, though to see not even one little slap at any Clinton (other than perhaps that question of the definition of Europe).

7. agreed
I think this is the key graph:

"By playing on the insecurities of an inexperienced leader, Mr. Cheney has managed to change W. from a sunny, open, bipartisan, uniter-not-a-divider, non-nation-builder into a crabby, secretive, partisan, divider-not-a-uniter, inept imperialist. Vice is bounding around the country, talking to his usual circumscribed audiences of conservatives, right-wing think tanks and Fox News anchors. No need to burrow in the bunker when you've turned America into one."

In other words, all this bad stuff is Cheney's fault. So when they throw him overboard just before the election, they can say, "See, Bush is really a great guy! He's a uniter, not a divider! Let's give him another chance!
MoDo -- who seems constitutionally incapable of penning a column without taking a gratuitous dig at Clinton -- still refuses to see Bush for what he is: a spoiled,, petty, narrow-minded tyrant who was NEVER interested in real bipartisanship.

6. Whatever you think of her, she often nails it.

As they used to say about the Soviet Union, the defensive Bush imperialists have to keep expanding because they're encircled. Mr. Cheney's gloomy, scary, contentious world view has fueled a more gloomy, scary, contentious world.
