Wolf Blitzer just said he doesn't rule out a 2012 presidential run by Cheney...

[Rhiannon12866]

Yikes! That's all we need... :scared:

[polichick]

1. Is it time to "look back" yet, Mr. President? nt

[alcibiades_mystery]

2. I welcome it

Put his record directly on the table.

The man has failed up his whole life. Obama would wipe the floor with him.

[zbdent]

24. like the "liberal media" would expose it then, either ...

I mean, how often did you hear in the "liberal media" that he was defying a SCOTUS order to turn over the list of people he met with in Feb 2001? That he has YET to do so?

Less than two months after meeting with them, Hillary Clinton had to turn over her records as to who she met with, when it came to health care issues ...

[H2O Man]

45. Right.

I do not think he would even win the republican primary. Although they are going to have a relatively weak group running in 2012, it seems highly unlikely that Cheney could win. In fact, I doubt that he could invest the physical energies necessary to compete. His record? Oh, please, let him run!

[spanone]

3. isn't dick's approval rating in the single digit area

i think this was more like wishful thinking from der wolfie

[Rhiannon12866]

I think he's full of it and said that to the TV, LOL,

But just the thought of it makes me feel kinda ill. I've seen more than enough of him for one lifetime... x(

[spanone]

9. for many lifetimes....

[npk]

25. Like he plans to run a fair election.

Poll numbers and ratings don't matter to people like Cheney. They have other means of getting elected.

[Art_from_Ark]

39. The lowest approval rating of any "VP" since Aaron Burr!

And like Burr, he shot someone while in office!

[Solly Mack]

4. Well, it's not as if being a war criminal is a bad thing in America

[tanyev]

5. Doubt it. His ticker barely made it through 8 years of vice-presidency.

[Rhiannon12866]

12. Wolfie said "as long as his heart is good..."

:crazy:

[rfranklin]

33. He'll only be 71 years old! Wasn't Reagan like a hundred and two?

And he can be keep alive as long as there is electricity available.

[Rhiannon12866]

51. In his "undisclosed location..." ;)

I remember when Reagan ran. I was visiting my grandmother who was living in a retirement community. People there were saying that they wouldn't vote for him because he was "too old..." :evilfrown:

[Bitwit1234]

6. Oh yes the MSM thinks it is better news to have one of those

bold wonderful republicans running for president than a real man or woman. After all we wouldn't be in the mess we are in now if is wasn't for bush and cheney.

The main thing I fault the present administration for is not going after these two architects of the plans for an invasion of an innocent country and the ruination of this one.

[spartan61]

7. The only way Cheney could get elected would be for him to

steal the election. Oh wait...Isn't that how bush was "elected?"

[Rhiannon12866]

14. Exactly. Bush* was "selected" in 2000...

And Cheney chose himself for VP... :-(

[theophilus]

8. Blizter is a clown. So is Mr. Dick. Bring him on. n/t

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. His VP had better be ready to step in ASAP

in case 'ol Dickster's ticker fizzles out.

[Rhiannon12866]

20. Sarah Palin? Eric Cantor? Tom Tancredo? How about ol' Lipless Mitch?

The possibilities are enough to cause a national anxiety attack... :scared:

[TheCowsCameHome]

22. Good point. That IS a scary prospect.

[Rhiannon12866]

27. He couldn't pick anybody that wouldn't make my blood run cold...

Just like his. :evilgrin:

[Dont_Bogart_the_Pretzel]

35. Don't foget about Scott Brown...

Looks like the M$M likes this one..

[Rhiannon12866]

40. Paired with Dick Cheney, Scott Brown would bring in the "youth" vote...

:rofl:

[anakie]

36. What about a Cheney/Cheney ticket

n/t

[anakie]

37. how about the love Liz Cheney?

n/t

[Spazito]

11. Did Wolfie have to wipe the drool off his lip after saying that?

He is soap scuzz, both of them are.

[Contrary1]

13. Big Dick vs. Pit bull with Lipstick in the primaries.

Now that's entertainment.

[Rhiannon12866]

21. He was speaking to Candy Crowley and even she looked shocked!

:rofl:

[Motown_Johnny]

15. mr. 15% approval rating for President.... that would make our job easy

[elehhhhna]

16. He meant Liz.

[Rhiannon12866]

23. Nope. He was speaking about the ol' sneer-monger himself...

Had him right up there on the screen... x(

[Captain Hilts]

17. Not. Going. To. Happen. He's just blathering to kill time. nt

[Lil Missy]

18. One can only hope.

[upi402]

19. CNN; Corporate News Network n/t

[Rhiannon12866]

26. I usually watch Big Ed on MSNBC, but he was preempted for Olympic hockey...

:hide:

[upi402]

28. Womens USA hockey are kicking butt

I miss Ed and will wait for the rest. But these women are monsters! Clinic time!

[Rhiannon12866]

30. Thanks for the update! Great news!!!

I was hoping to hear more news about the plane crash in Austin, so switched to CNN... :eyes:

At least he's got Jack Cafferty... :D

[Arkana]

29. Cheney is still hilariously unpopular

in all circles but the extreme right-wing.

He's old, angry, has heart issues, and is just generally unlikable and completely incapable of winning an election with himself as the face of the franchise.

[Rhiannon12866]

32. Wolf Blitzer seems to like him...

That's one vote... ;)

[onecent]

31. Boy, I needed a "good" laugh today. the crooked bastart! n/t

[JackRiddler]

34. As an optimist, I don't rule out the end of Wolf Blitzer's career, in disgrace, by 2012.

[O is 44]

38. If only that were true, a complete waste

of space.

[PerfectSage]

41. "2012 presidential run by Cheney" is secret code for...

...Cheney flying a plane into the Whitehouse in 2012. That way he'll hit the trifecta. lol

[Rhiannon12866]

42. The subtlety of such an act would be lost on Cheney...

He just shoots people in the face. x(

[bluestateguy]

43. Remember him?

[DFW]

44. Statistically, Blitzer is right

0.000001% of a chance is still not "completely ruling it out."

*on edit--besides, the Constitution prohibits serving more than two terms. He just got done
with 8 years as de-facto President.

[Contrary1]

46. I don't rule out that in 2012 Blitzer will still be an idiot. n/t

[Yavin4]

47. Just Shows How Vacuous CNN Really Is

In any other advanced democracy on earth, a real news organization would be calling for indictments of Cheney, not cheerleading his possible run for the presidency.

Not CNN, the network of pandering to right wing criminals and fringe groups in desperation for ratings.

[tkmorris]

48. Wolf Blitzer... Jeopardy...

Since that day the world has known that he simply has no CLUE what he is talking about. What a woefully ignorant human being.

[saltpoint]

49. Wolf will say just about anything. I wouldn't run any farm set to his rooster.

Who knows what CNN was thinking when it hired this guy?

Cheney is widely reviled, and properly so.

I don't believe he has any chance of getting on the Republican ticket. I don't think he wants the job.

[Selatius]

50. You fucking telling me that Palpatine is gonna run for the fucking presidency?

We're fucking doomed. Dooooomed...

[gratuitous]

52. Millions out of work

And Blitzer gets paid six or seven figures a year to spout this kind of nonsense. T'aint fair.
