The GOP is the largest group of conspiracy theorists on the planet. Listening to my conservative relatives talk, at this point, sounds a lot like listening to 9/11 truthers.

It's the GOP vs the liberals, the scientists, the elitists, europe, the middle east, the media, the unions, historians, education, and every other group on the planet.

/has heard the following uttered: "Walter Cronkite is the reason we lost Vietnam"

I Said: /has heard the following uttered: "Walter Cronkite is the reason we lost Vietnam"

So have I, word for word. Reminds me of another phrase you might hear repeated verbatim:

Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.

/The GOP would like ~23% of the nation to pass the time by playing a game of solitaire.

Never go full Cheney.

a vast left-wing conspiracy

Not to mention black people, white people, Puerto Ricans, Samoans...

why have i heard more from cheney since he was booted out of office than in the previous 8 years when he was?

can't he go back to living in the secret bunker?

Darth Cheney thinks your lack of faith is distrubing

Dick Cheney was a great vice president, unlike his lame predecessor.

What did Gore do after the first WTC attack? He blamed Global Warming. What a doofus.

"Everybody's in a giant conspiracy to achieve a different objective than the one we want to achieve"

What? Is he feeling lonely? Only crazy people start a sentence with "Everybody", as in "Everybody is out to get me!!!11!".

How does the saying go?

If everyone around you thinks differently and you think they are crazy, maybe you're the crazy one?

I wonder if he's just (very skillfully) working up to an insanity defense for his upcoming war crimes tribunal.

Weaver95: lajimi: I wish this evil troll would just go back to wherever he was hiding for the last eight years.

actually, I'm kind of enjoying his meltdown. It's probably the most horrible thing in his life, watching a black democrat in the white house run the country. I'll bet Dick's stress level is through the roof right now.

*sigh*

it just don't get any better than that.

It truly must be stressful and embarrassing to see the fruition of your life's work and the ideals you held be so strongly challenged and refuted. Also to see the real place you will hold in the history books.

Wondering if Cheney is thinking that he should of just gone to 'Nam and just taken a bullet and gotten this all over with?

The Man is keeping him down.

Well, Dick was probably the driving force behind 9/11, so he probably knows a lot about giant conspiracies.

The man is a master. And a monster.

Thread Over.

elections are conspiracies?

FTA

The former Vice President characterized the Iranian goal in negotiations on ending that country's nuclear program as mere stalling for time, and the Europeans as trying to "restrain the U.S." from military action.

"Everybody's in a giant conspiracy to achieve a different objective than the one we want to achieve," Cheney said.

The negotiations are "bound to fail unless we are perceived as very credible" in threatening military action against Iran, he said.

"Most of the other nations out there are willing to live with a nuclear-armed Iran" he said, citing France, Germany and the United Kingdom in particular.


The "Everybody" is clearly referring to the Iranians and Europeans. Whether you agree with that or not, it's an at least plausible take on what's happening, and those equating Cheney with truthers are just demonstrating what jackasses they are.

But so many lefties are so batshiat crazy with hatred for Cheney that neither facts nor logic stand in the way of bashing him.

Aren't political parties essentially just open conspiracies?

exactly, Cheney has nothing to do with facts or logic.

What'll truly be interesting is the bullshiat tribute Cheney gets when he dies.

And Cheney can't even kill someone over any of this. he's stuck in suburbia, completely powerless and unable to influence anyone in D.C. at all.

that has to be driving him nuts!

How long until he needs to take a hunting trip with a few friends?
His heart must be in better condition than I thought.

SixPaperJoint: It truly must be stressful and embarrassing to see the fruition of your life's work and the ideals you held be so strongly challenged and refuted. Also to see the real place you will hold in the history books.

I don't know how he can stand the cognitive dissonance. He's clearly not stupid, but there's only so long you can insist that up is down before your intestines leap up into your skull and choke your brain.

Cheney doesn't die, he just changes forms.

No, its not a "plausible take". Its Dick throwing a temper tantrum screaming "I want to kill Iranians!!!!"

Mr. and Ms. Cheney can go out and fight Iran if they want.

And yes, it's everyone else Dick.

Regardless of Iran's intentions, getting Iran to NOT see us as an enemy goes a long way to getting people who would actually listen to us, work with us, to the position of representing Iran. Threatening harsher sanctions, strikes, and outright war only puts them on the defensive.

Cold and alone you arrogant self-righteous individual, cold and alone with peace in the place of your wars.

atleast the nazis, the mormons, and the klu klux klan still support them.

Of course, the more logical explanation is that Cheney's in a giant conspiracy to achieve a different objective than the one everyone else wants to achieve.

/has heard the following uttered: "Walter Cronkite is the reason we lost Vietnam"

Christ almighty. I have heard that same phrase from MY right-winger relatives. Once they get a talking point they repeat it verbatim regardless of whether they know what they are talking about it not. It's like they think these statements are self-evident.

These kinds of conservatives would probably do very well in a tribal situation or a very small city-state where everyone is militarized. But in a large, advanced society they seem like a vestigial organ of some kind that contributes very little but occasionally causes problems.

Leave my Dick alone!

Wow, the tinfoil hat/WARCRIMES!/dumbass brigades are strong in this thread.

"Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it. You know, I just... do things. The mob has plans, the cops have plans, Gordon's got plans. You know, they're schemers. Schemers trying to control their little worlds. I'm not a schemer. I try to show the schemers how pathetic their attempts to control things really are. So, when I say... Ah, come here......When I say that you and your girlfriend was nothing personal, you know that I'm telling the truth. It's the schemers that put you where you are. You were a schemer, you had plans, and look where that got you...I just did what I do best. I took your little plan and I turned it on itself. Look what I did to this city with a few drums of gas and a couple of bullets. Hmmm? You know... You know what I've noticed? Nobody panics when things go "according to plan." Even if the plan is horrifying! If, tomorrow, I tell the press that, like, a gang banger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics, because it's all "part of the plan." But when I say that one little old mayor will die, well then everyone loses their minds!"

Because crazy is the only way to describe you mindless agenda driven zealots.

I'm not a lefty - i'm just enjoying the fact that one of the most evil men I've ever seen is completely out of power and throwing a temper tantrum in public because nobody is listening to him any more.

Yeah, I know I shouldn't revel in the misfortunes of others....but it's hard to give Cheney the benefit of the doubt. especially when he keeps acting in such an immature and unprofessional manner.

ramen, except I am a "lefty"
