Dick Cheney needs to come home to planet Earth

Barack Obama only reminds us every third day, that he's a President at War. And apparently, Dick misses those? Maybe Dick watches too much Fox and Friends, and not enough CNN or MSNBC or even BBC America, or even CBS, ABC, & NBC? With the Obama administration, we are not at war with Terrorism. Why? Because that is not a solvable problem, there will always be crazy people, foreign and domestic, out to kill in large numbers. No the War is on a particular group of well funded nutjobs, and the relentless pursuit of those nutjobs, across the whole globe.

Why does this make Dick angry? Let's look at the facts. Without George/Dick letting two key men go from Guantanamo, the Christmas Underpants Bomber wouldn't have been trained. Now why did they release them to Saudi's for Arts & Crafts training and therapy? It's because Oilmen take care of each other. So what did Dick do to make this country safer, much less lower prices at the pump?

SHUT UP DICK! You're a looser, who up to his armpits in this shit, and spin will not help!

As a personal note: What I fear here is exactly what men like Dick try to exploit: Because people (mostly white, and not well educated), are angry and polarized. They will believe anything he says against the current administration without any fact checking. And because they read polarized newspapers, magazines, and watch polarized propaganda cable news. They refute all real facts, as being liberal bias conspiracy. They do! This is why Conservatives are waisting your money in Washington, sitting on their hands, not even funding the War they started and like to criticize now, and pretend that it's Obama that abusing our blood and treasure, for his own idealism. And with 30% of you, they will get away with it. I've stop saying; You must be kidding? And have started asking; What planet are you from?

Facts are that Republicans are blocking the confirmation of the TSA chief.
Facts are that Republicans are blocking the image screening devices and sniffers.
Facts are we went to war with Iraq because Saudi's wanted us to.
Facts are that Saudi princes 90% financing of Al Qaeda.
Facts are that there is nobody left in Guantanamo that the Saudi's want.
Facts are that Republicans were in favor of closing Guantanamo before they were against it.
Facts are that it's okay to prosecute terrorists in criminal court under a Republican Administration, but not a Democratic one- for what reason?
Facts are that Republican's have done more to help them, than to stop them, as is evident by the underpants bomber.
Facts are that you're dupes, that have been lied to by oilmen for 9 years! Isn't that right Mr. Koch, Mr. Army, and Mr. Cheney?
Facts are that the British and Dutch have grabbed up the oil fields in Iraq (after all that). So the American Tax Payer is just out of his money on that war?

How about some fact checking before you take everything said by anybody for granted this next year? Even just 10 minutes on the Internet. I'm not expert at anything, but I'm an expert at being lied to, and I've even lost friends to having a spine of my own. I'm not the one that is polarized, I like conservatives. And I'm still worried about YOUR cult like behavior to your brand of politics. There's no great liberal conspiracy to destroy America. But there is elephant brand shit sandwich spread, that you fund at the pump everyday!

Players

Tiger Woods is Player of the Year!
Holy crap, you can't make stuff like that up, no one will ever believe it!
I'm sure Tiger has ducked under the radar right now, because of embarrassment. Tiger tries very hard to be a good man, and the world discovered his secret life. I'm sure, he knew it would come out, but I'll bet he never expected it to be so dramatic as putting a car into a tree.

They foreclose on banks on Friday, to prevent runs, that would even worse bust the bank. Doing this on Fridays give another bank a chance, to absorb the balance sheets, and adjust costs, without complete bankruptcy. It's a good idea. It also puts such things out of the news cycle these days- Because shamefully, it's not it's not 24/7/365 a year news cycle anymore! And that's really a budget cutting, lack of professionalism. If you notice, the Jr Reporters read lead-ins on story that were done during the week, at almost every station. There is no politics on the Sabbath.

Congress and the President have noticed this 12/5/207 work schedule, along with the rest of us. So, there is a rush to get bad news out LATE FRIDAY, when all the researchers have gone home or about to! Like just sneaking it in. I noticed that the Senate just did this with all of it's end of the year budget tasks. They played politics all week long, making it look like everybody can't get along on anything, and by EARLY Saturday morning, the fuss is over. We're ready to dead lock on one remaining issue; Health Care Reform for another Sunday Morning Chat-room Cycle. This about politics being politics. The movement for change? What change? Meet the new boss, same as the old boss!

Tiger Woods should have to share his title of "Player of the Year" with John McCain, and Barock Obama, for all this gamesmanship.

To all my cynical friends; You were right, there is no hope of getting real Health Care Reform this session, it's been watered down to nothing to gain conservative votes that aren't even going to happen. And frankly, this is not OVER! Everyone against is going down, to an angry populous- Republicans, find yourself good candidates other than "Incumbent", because we will not forgive or forget, who is on the wrong side of history. This is not Obama's Waterloo, it is yours! This is not a normal political year, all eyes are watching, there will be a price for being stupid- I've focused on you Republicans because you were the most foolish, and have the most to loose, I'm not kidding, Run NEW voices. Conservative Democrats will be very very luckly to retain their seats, if they can at all. This is war with the public, and we're not going to take it!

We now know who the whores are. Tiger's sluts are not important- players!

A prayer for the season(s)

I am the person that has said, any number of times; Never give Afghanistan back! It's ours, forever! Look at what they have wrought on the world. From the stupidest to the greatest, they are dreck, incapable of good governance. Yes, that is all me!

Now Obama has committed us to 30,000 more troops, and 18 more months of war. And in this season of "Peace on Earth, good will towards men." I look at it, and realize that means two Christmases that miss the mark. Many families living in daily fear. My ego is now beaten, I am dirt. I still believe in the righteousness of this battle/war, to restore world peace. But the cost is almost too much to bare (even the loss of one more).

My prayers are for all the fine men and women in our uniform. In the fight or not, the pray for your safe return, is for you. The prayer that have God's Speed to complete your mission, is with you. For I am so horrified by the number we commit, because of the hatred of so few.

May there be peace on earth, and good will toward men, sooner, not later. Let us all pray that 18 month, need not be required. That is my holiday wish. God bless you all.
