DEVELOPING STORY: According to the Washington Post, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and Vice President Dick Cheney have been indicted in South Texas County over a strange political battles involving a South Texas federal prison.
The indictment was handed down Monday morning and has not yet been signed by a judge. No action can be taken against either man until this happens.

By Darnell Washington, Newsophile Staff WriterNEW YORK -- Immediately after it was reported that Vice President Dick Cheney had been experiencing atrial fibrillation, or an abnormal heartbeat in the top chamber of his heart, several national polls reported rising levels of schadenfreude among likely voters.

Dick Cheney was spotted riding through Washington D.C. on his way to his office. Mr Cheney was participating in the world naked bike ride day to highlight the affects of oil on the environment.

It's funny that the media buys into the idea that Barack Obama is an "elitist" because he may have gotten a low bowling score or made a misunderstood comment about voter sentiment but ignores the reality that Republican elitists positively drip with disdain for ordinary Americans.

Is that really a naked woman in Dick Cheney's sunglasses?: He shot his hunting partner, but Vice President Dick Cheney apparently doesn't fly fish with naked women. Since Wednesday, the blogosphere has been atwitter over a photograph on the White House Web site of Cheney with a caption that said he was fly-fishing on the Snake River in Idaho. The photo is a tight shot of Cheney's face sporting dark sunglasses and his trademark grin.A close-up of the image in Vice President Cheney's sunglasses.Read more here.Click here for the photo posted at the Whitehouse.gov site.
Vice President and Mrs. Cheney filed their federal income tax return for 2007 today.The income tax return shows that the Cheneys owe federal taxes for 2007 of $602,651 on taxable income of $2,528,068. During the course of 2007 the Cheneys paid $466,165 in taxes through withholding and estimated tax payments, and will pay the remaining $136,486 upon filing their tax return.The wage and salary income reported on the tax return includes the Vice President's $212,208 government salary. In addition, the tax return reports a pension benefit of $32,500, which the Vice President received as a former director of Union Pacific Corporation. The Vice President became eligible for this benefit in 2006 when he turned 65. The tax return also reports Mrs. Cheney's book royalty income, a salary from her co
Is Dick Cheney hanging out with Bill Clinton and his Harem?? Huh?Vice President Dick Cheney’s sunglasses are causing quite a stir this morning because some say there appears to be a naked woman in the reflection of his glasses. The story even provoked Cheney’s spokeswoman to respond saying, “Clearly the picture shows a hand casting a rod.” Here’s a better view. Do you really think it’s a naked woman? The situation got so out of hand, one investigative reporter used digital technology to enhance the photo. “In one lens of his sunglasses you can clearly tell it is a sleeved arm of Cheney or a fishing companion. The other lens has an extreme distortion that, without looking at it closely, could be misconstrued,” said investigative photo editor Bridges. via

Vice President Dick Cheney with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.Associated Press photoThere is probably no person more unqualified to lead a Mideast peace push than Dick Cheney. His visit to Israel demonstrates his “unshakable” commitment to the defense of Israel, which is all fine, but he seems to treat the Palestinians as an afterthought. Oh, the US has “goodwill” toward the Palestinians, says Cheney, as if giving a tentative pat on the head to the red-headed stepchild at the family picnic. The vice president got a commitment on oil production from Saudi Arabia, but did he accomplish anything else of significance? The most pressing issue for the Saudis is dealing with the crisis in Gaza. But he leaves the Kingdom without any mention of discussing the issue with King Abdullah.

Cheney: Democrats Can’t Stand Up To House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
WASHIGNTON — Vice President Dick Cheney is suggesting that House Democrats who rubber stamp Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s wrongheaded agenda are lacking a spine.
Cheney expressed incredulity with the majority leadership during an interview published in The Politico newspaper on Wednesday. The White House later released a full transcript of the interview.
Senior Democrats “march to the tune of Nancy Pelosi to the extent I had not seen, frankly, with any previous speaker. I’m trying to think how to say all of this in a gentlemanly fashion, but [in] the Congress I served in, that wouldn’t have happened,” he said.
Nevertheless, Cheney said the Democrats in Congress — who took over the majority after the 2006 midterm elections — have “produced absolutely no

From Dennis Kucinich’s web site:
Kucinich Will Introduce Privileged Resolution To Force Up Or Down Vote On Cheney Impeachment
Washington, Nov 2 -
Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) announced today that he will be offering a privileged resolution on the House floor next week that will bring articles of impeachment against the Vice President, Richard B. Cheney.
“The momentum is building for impeachment,” Kucinich said. “Millions of citizens across the nation are demanding Congress rein in the Vice President’s abuse of power.
“Despite this groundswell of opposition to the unconstitutional conduct of office, Vice President Cheney continues to violate the U.S. Constitution by insisting the power of the executive branch is supreme.
“Congress must hold the Vice President accountable. The American people need to let Members of Congress know how they feel about this. The Vice President continues to use his office to advocate for a continued occupation of Iraq
Most people know that Vice President Dick Cheney is sometimes joked about being “Darth Vader” from Star Wars. Well, on Wednesday President George Bush commented on this nickname, saying that Cheney didn’t even need to dress up to play the “Star Wars” villain for Halloween.
“This morning I was with the vice president. I was asking him what costume he was planning. And he said ‘I’m already wearing it.’ Then he mumbled something about ‘the dark side of the Force,” Bush said jokingly.
However, Dick Cheney himself has also joked about him being portrayed as the Dark Lord of the Sith, in which his most recent comment was at a speech to the Washington Institute for Near East policy. He said, “I’ve been asked if that nickname bothers me, and the answer is, no. After all, Darth Vader is one of the nicer things I’ve been called recently.”

U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney left a hospital in Washington Saturday following a scheduled operation to replace a battery in a device that monitors his heart.Mr. Cheney has a history of heart trouble. He has suffered four heart attacks, the most recent in 2000.An internal defibrillator was implanted in his chest in 2001. The device monitors his heartbeat and administers an electric shock to the heart muscle to correct irregular beats.During Cheney's routine physical examination last month, his doctors noticed the defibrillator's battery had weakened to the point that it should be replaced.Cheney's office said the device had been operating normally and had not had to correct any irregular heartbeats.

Washington, DC - A las 7:21 AM del sábado, Dick Cheney se convirtió durante dos horas en Presidente de los Estados Unidos cuando George W. Bush fue anestesiado para una colonoscopía de rutina. Utilizando la enmienda número 25 de la Constitución, el Presidente transfirió todos su poderes a Cheney durante el tiempo que estuviera inconsciente, y el mundo nunca volverá a ser igual. Considerado posiblemente el Vice-Presidente más poderoso en la historia de los Estados Unidos, atribuyéndose poderes legislativos y ejecutivos dependiendo de la situación, todo el mundo temía qué pasaría cuando finalmente tuviera poder verdadero: el hombre no desilusionó. Lo que sigue es un desglose de cómo utilizó Cheney su tiempo como Presidente.Señoras y señores: El Presidente de los Estados Unidos, Dick Cheney: si esa oración no les hace sentir el temor de Dios en sus entrañas, no sabemos qué decirles7:22 AM: El Secretario de Prensa, Tony Snow, es destituido y reemplazado por el afamado
Liberalism stands for the proposition that intentions and desires are always more important than results. This is why liberals almost always support failing endeavors so long as there were good intentions behind it. In the political arena, this phenomenon is magnified by liberal politicians; their continued support for failing policies demonstrates they are suffering from collective amnesia. While in the past, liberals solely engaged in economic malfeasance, liberal politicians today have demonstrated that they stand for nothing more than meaningless gestures. Evidently, that fact extends far beyond Congress, and is now leaching into our city councils. For example, West Hollywood Mayor John J. Duran said his city joined 80 other U.S. towns or cities in the political effort to protect constitutional ideals. What were those “constitutional ideals?” Well, Duran felt that it was the place for West Hollywood officials to pass a resolution calling for the impeachment of Presid
Well, yesterday when Baby Boy Bush officially transferred his presidential power to ole Dick this is what happened:Cheney was at his Chesapeake Bay home in St. Michaels, Md., with his wife, Lynne, and spent his short time in power reading in the back yard and hanging out with his dogs, spokeswoman Lea Anne McBride said. "He had a routine Saturday morning," she said by e-mail. "Nothing occurred that required him to take official action as Acting President." (Washington Post).Maybe if a certain president would spend more time reading and playing with Barney instead of sticking his nose in everybody's business, the world would be a better place. I assume that if Cheney had been president for more than a few hours, he would not have spent his time in such a useful way.tags: Bush Cheney president 25th Amendment
Recent headlines underscore the dire situation in Palestine, once again proving (as if there were any need of further proof) that the obstacles to be overcome in maintaining a secure, successful Palestinian state are as intricate as they are numerous. The region, for decades synonymous with violence and confrontation, has seen any progress voided by subsequent regression. The result has been, at best, a zero sum game, and not for lack of trying. Few are the nations who have not attempted to influence either one side or the other, with some of the brightest minds in various sectors working on the cause. Nevertheless, the problem persists, and proposed solutions usually revolve around the same sets of ideas. It’s therefore an encouraging thing when one hears a proposal which is not only fresh and exciting, but also viable.

Dennis Kucinich will announce articles of impeachment against Dick Cheney.
On what grounds?:
“One, they misled the nation into war, an aggressive and illegal war that has obviously been catastrophic,” Park said. “They are currently violating the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act” by ordering wiretap warrants without FISA court approval and they are committing torture in violation of the Geneva Conventions.
Same old story again, Bush lied people died. It doesn’t matter if everyone thought the intellegence was correct throughout the ’80’s and ’90’s. All that matters is revenge for President Clinton’s impeachment.
If you want to have a trial for impeachment because the president is trying to protect the American people, I have only one thing to say:

Thanks to AT for the tip. Check out the source story hereWashington, DC (ABSP) - Associated BS PressA recent book by renowned primatoligist Dr. Frans de Waal claims that the roots of morality can be seen in the social behavior of monkeys and apes. The renowned scientist claims that "human morality would be impossible without certain emotional building blocks that are clearly at work in chimp and monkey societies." In related news, DNA evidence proves that Dick Cheney is not descended from monkeys.Skeptics rushed to point out that if monkeys had morals, then this video or this video would never be possible. Other critics, including the Bush administration argued that monkeys never existed and the earth is only 5000 years old and dinosaurs walked with humans and The Flintstones are based on reality and therefore humans couldn't be descended from monkeys so nanny nanny poo poo. Supporters of Dr. de Waal, including Dr. Philip Kitcher are smart and say lots of philosophical things like "th

In 2002, ABC made the decision to not renew Bill Maher’s contract after he made some disgraceful comments on his program “Politically Incorrect” concerning America’s military response to 9/11. After what transpired on ”Real Time” Friday, the heads of HBO should be equally outraged, if not more.
As the discussion moved to the attempted assassination of Vice President Cheney last week, Maher asked his panel why it was necessary for the Huffington Post to remove comments by readers concerning their disappointment that the attempt failed. As the conversation ensued, Maher said one of the most disgraceful and irresponsible things uttered on a major television program since Bush was elected.

Another Democrat speaks his mind honestly and people are again shocked. I dont see why though. Anyone that is paying attention knows that the left says this exact sort of thing on a regular basis. Wishing death on the vice president or even the president is a staple of online liberal blogs and forums. Their hypocrisy is so blatant in that the same people having fits over Ann Coulter using the word "faggot' won't condemn fellow Democrats when they say something like this, which is obviously much worse. I suspect that a large percentage of Democrats dont think this way but you wouldnt know that if all you had to go by was what is routinely said at the places they congregate online. What makes it worse is that the mainstream Democrats seldom denounce this sort of vile behavior on the part of their fringe element (I think I'm being generous by assuming it's their fringe element). ~RJH Newsbusters article link Bill Maher Sorry the Assassination Attempt on Dick Cheney Failed
It's nice to see that I am not the only one with a clear idea of what the left is usually like. About four years ago when I first started participating in political discussion forums and blogs I was so naive. I would register at forums and then read the most insane spewings from the moonbats and then when I would ever so gently ask if they actually had anything to back up what they were alleging I would be promptly banned and my posts deleted. And I did not know why. *COUGH*Democratic Underground*COUGH* Back then I really had no idea that the same people who claimed to single handedly maintain freedom of speech for the nation would indulge in such draconian measures of censorship. Like I said I was naive at the time. But it didn't take long to realize they were every bit as two faced and hypocritical as they seemed. Did I leave out how they are so hate filled and angry? And they can't utter a single sentence without dropping the "f-bomb" a half dozen times? Or how every time they h
This Cheney thing leaves me a little conflicted. One the one hand, it's rude or out-of-line to comment on somebody's non-political daughter (especially when he has nothing to do with her decisions). On the other hand, Mary Cheney's situation is an example of a current societal issue today. If I had another hand, I'd say that to use an issue in Cheney's family against him is also very bad form.
The real issue is the Pragerian dialectic, standards vs. compassion. Chaney loves his daughter, but may not approve of her behavior. Many people find themselves in such a position and it must be a difficult one. An acquaintance of mine is in that situation, with his son declaring his unheteroness. He's a traditional man and I'd never dream of bringing it up to him. And why would I except to make fun of his values or his family? Now, if he wanted to bring it up, then I'd give him a sympathetic ear.
Before Tuesday, the president has said he was keeping Rummy on and we know now that he was fibbing in that case. Do you believe W when he says this:
Q This is a very competitive environment. No, but we asked you about the fate of Secretary Rumsfeld and Vice President Cheney. Vice President Cheney, of course, has made — takes many of the same positions that Secretary Rumsfeld did on the war. Does he still have your complete confidence?
THE PRESIDENT: Yes, he does.
Q Do you expect him to stay –
THE PRESIDENT: The campaign is over. Yes, he does.
Q And he’ll be here for the remainder of your term?
THE PRESIDENT: Yes, he will. Thank you.
Any one taking bets as to when the Big Dick Cheney is asked to take the walk off the Whitehouse plank?

Dear America,You want to know who shot Tony Soprano? I did. That's right. I shot that fat bastard. He was a terrorist. Or in the mafia. Or something bad. Grrr! I shot him. He lived in New Jersey, which is a Blue state, so it's understandable why he was in the mob. Now I'm not saying that all Democrats are in the mob, but the fact is that they are. Which is why I shot Tony Soprano. It may have looked like Junior did it, but it was actually me. It's easy to confuse the two of us, but I assure you it was me. I take full credit. You should thank me for it, America, because you're a lot safer now. Now I'm not saying that Democrats were making you less safe, but the fact is that they were. But not any more thanks to me.
