Dick Cheney - So to Iraq Public Oposition Polls

[gavincurtis]

It feeds on starving children....

[3888799]

And yet the teabaggers believe obama is the anti-christ. Lol

[TikiTubeable]

LOL.

This man is going to HELL.

And I don't even believe in hell, rofl.

[zamodel77777]

cheney is my father

[Jonnybass7]

“When facism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.”

[13stevejohnson]

as much as i disagree with dick cheney, the man has conviction and big balls!

[marcoddy]

@13stevejohnson So did Hitler

[GeorgiaKev]

And conservatives complain that Obama ignore the wishes of the American people. Pathetic.

[Molcinrocks]

By far one of the most Hated politicians in America history! His comment here makes that so understable!

[EvelTwinOfSlogmaster]

You're a politician, you've built a mighty fine career on the fluctuations of public opinion, douche drinker!

The positive thing is, this will be the quote he's best remembered for. Everyone remembers when Kennedy died. "Ask not what you can do for your country..." was all over the media that day! Very fitting epitaph this Dick will have...

[rumplef]

@EvelTwinOfSlogmaster

It was "Ask not what your country can do for you", douchebag. But that's all Cheney has done. Used us like whores. My only reason for hoping there is a hell is that this guy burns in it.

[fuckamerica109]

this dude is such a worthless piece of shit hes not even a person

[BOBSTAHL]

SO? so fucking die already !!!!!

[Castaril]

What a dick!

[rugbynimbus]

"...That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, DERIVING THEIR JUST POWERS FROM THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED.

Suck it, Dick.

[Redboy4]

"So"? <-----that says it all right there

[newyork142536]

My point is, leaders should do what they believe is correct and not side with public opinion polls. Also, public opinion polls are very misleading because they can be manipulated by the people or political organizations who conduct them.

[tfustudios]

Exactly, leaders should do whatever they need to, and have no regard for the public sentiment.

In fact they should outlaw voting all together. Who are 'voters' to decide?

[labouroflust]

@newyork142536 Today's Americans, I'd like to think, have better sense than they did 50 or 150 years ago. So when most of them say they no longer support this war, it's probably for a good reason. The initial excuse (WMD's) was falsified, followed by a few other big ones. There are also well-documented transgressions committed by Cheney dating back to his days as SecDef that exemplify how just he calculating and self-serving he really is. Dick Cheney is evil, plain and simple.

[newyork142536]

In Germany, the execution of Jews and minority groups was embraced by the majority of German people during World War II. So if you side with the public opinion polls, then the Holocaust was justified and correct.

[newyork142536]

Slavery and racism was extremely popular with the American public, but is immoral. So if you say public opinion is always correct over, "the right thing," then slavery is justified and correct.

[soloman81]

Cheney is right here. What's popular, isn't always right. We should always choose rational argument over public opinion. Fighting for a secular and democratic Iraq was right at the time, and continuing the fight is right to do now.

[mcdoler]

Excuse me. The vice-president's job is to represent the American people. When 2/3 of Americans say something isn't worth doing, if the vice-president continues doing it HE IS NOT REPRESENTING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE! Period, end of story.

[camelbackmountain]

cheney can blow himself! hope somebody mugs his ass after he leaves office.

[BeeRad277]

So?!?! And all this time I thought America was a Democracy!

[jbstuff]

A democratic republic, technically. Or at least we are in theory. In practice we're basically a militant plutocracy with imperialistic impulses. Ours is an empire of influence, conquering the world with American-ism in order for the world to better suit ours and our interests: or, more realistically, the interests of the rich and powerful who benefit from our violent expansion throughout the world.

[68W2M072]

The people's voice was heard when we said "lets go!" We didn't say it just because of WMD's, or we would be clammoring for war with over 20 other countries. The point is quite clear: Our government is willing to see to the end a decision made by the people. We made the choice, now we gotta see it through to the end.

[ChuckNorrisBAM247]

This is the guy who's really been running the country the last 7 years. The more I see of him the more I realize that I would'nt trust him to check my mail if I went out of town! He is Shady!

[phonedial9]

Cheney looks like a cool guy. Probably cool to hang with and have a couple of beers.

[megamarsvin]

As long as you're not opposed to ending the day with a face full of buckshot ;)

[deszegheo]

"..you can't be blown off by fluxuations in public opinion."

uh.. wasn't it a fluxuation public opinion that gave him his job?

And isn't fluxuation in public opinion and the following through with that opinion the cornerstone of democracy?

It's America Dick. Try not to be too obvious that you are treating it like a fascist country.

[Makiba08]

You are so right. He just made a slip and let out what he really thinks about Americans

[Silberdachs]

Cheney is laughing all the way to the bank (the Bank of Dubai that is). He's got what he wants: your money. You've heard from GWB that the economy is going through a 'rough patch', but do you really know how rough that patch is? Set aside your political affiliations for a few minutes and take a look at this YouTube vid. The truth is trully shocking:

watch?v=I-16u9x3tfE

[KissMeImPunk]

..That little smug cum dumpster.

[kristinleah]

This man is smug, arrogant, self serving scumbag. Just like Bush and the rest of these elistist pigs.

[Phloid82]

I love her shocked reaction.

"So?" ...Like "are you kidding me?" "You don't care what the American people think?"

The guy is an asshole and I'm ashamed that he is from the state I grew up in. Good bye this election season, dick. History will judge you and your arrogant, misguided reign with contempt.

[MasterShadowRyu]

Fluctuation?! Yeah, the Iraq War is getting more unpopular. When it first began 1/3 of Americans were against it. Now, 2/3s are against it.

[BradE17]

after this video was done shooting he proceeded to shoot her in the face for asking that question....

[jwats1973]

You only have to say that you care what Americans think if you seek re-election. This guy and his crew think they are kings.

[CaribouManic]

Someone explain to me why this prick hasn't been impeached yet?

[trey0007]

Dick puts the "Dick" in Dick.

[Lavenderfairylol]

RADDATZ: Two-third of Americans say it's not worth fighting.

CHENEY: So?

RADDATZ So? You don't care what the American people think?

CHENEY: No. I think two-third of Americans can blow me.

[MarcusHolly]

@Lavenderfairylol WHEN THE FASCISTS APPEAR IN THE USA, LIKE BECK, BUSH, CHENEY, COULTER, SHARPTON AND PALIN, THEY WILL BE WAVING AMERICAN FLAGS AND THROWING THEIR BIBLES AS WEAPONS AT THEIR ENEMIES!

[UmpquaNation]

When should we expect this criminal to be tried and prosecuted for treason? The crimes he has committed in his contemptuous disregard for the constitution and the people of this nation shall not be overlooked by this American.

[thothuc]

So, LOL

[gamrgods]

amazing, yet, im not surprised.
