[...] South Dakota pheasant hunting. This is because of the good hunting and friendly atmosphere…CNN Political Ticker: All politics, all the time Blog Archive – Cheneys to host… Filed under: Dick Cheney Joe Biden 104 Comments | Permalink James Vanders November 13th, 2008 8:29 [...]

Yes, Cheney is a hero… if your definition of hero is – one who stood up to be counted with those who are willing to torture another human being… yes, a very noble, outstanding hero indeed. Surely a man to be idealized.

Does he need help packing his bags? Can he leave early? Tell Biden not to go hunting with him!

The damage Cheney did to this country, especially to it's method of constitutional governance, is immeasurable. Biden had it right when he denounced Cheney's support of the unitary executive theory.

Dick Cheney a Hero? 7 deferrments when it was his turn to fight? He had a chance to be a hero and he chose not to put himself in harm's way. Don't let the door hit you in the you know what on the way out. Good riddance!

Dude, get off the pot, LSD, liquor, and crack. You and the GOP deserve each other because you are both LOSERS in every sense of the word!

Say bye bye to another one, Ted Stevens of Alaska!

Keep your head down and eye on your wallett Joe…

Go Home Barry – Wow…you're delusional. If the GOP truly thinks that Cheney is a hero it signals the end of a once proud party.

It would be nice if Biden's Mother move in with the Bidens. He can see about her better if she is close.

"Go Home Barry", Cheney is that you?

Dick Cheney is a war criminal and should be prosecuted as such. He orchestrated this country's entry into an unconstitutional war based entirely on fabrications, presented to the American people and the world as facts. He is a disgrace to every American and to the office he has held for 8 years.

And by the way, I am a life-long Republican!

The sooner Cheney is gone, the better we'll all sleep at night. Hero??? HA! How about a complicitor in war crimes!

The Grand Old Party, and this country is in shambles, thanks in large part to the reckless practices of the last eight years by a Republican administration.

Mr. Cheney should be a reminder to us all that his party should never be trusted with the hearts,minds and money of the American people.

Goodbye and good riddance!

Thank GOD almighty he is out of office. He is the reason I've been praying that Pres. Bush fulfills every minute of his term. He is a bit scary.

They both have very sweet wives. They will make sure the Boys behave themselves.

I hope Biden keeps both eyes on Cheney because we already saw what he does to his friends in the Duck Blind.

THANK GOD!!!

Cheney should be tried for war crimes charges or crimes against humanity charges and sent to prison for life.

Go Home Barry…you are an idiot! At best Cheney is a WAR CRIMINAL and at least just another SLUG Republican out for himself and his buddies in big oil!

i have to wonder if the article is about cheney or obama and biden. and if the bidens get a dog or not. talk about some hard questions and problems that have to be addressed. 2 dogs and mom. the change were all after. i dont think millions of americans wabt to know who`s getting a dog. 85,000 lost their homes just last month. more american soilders lost their lives. mothers and fathers are grief stricken because of that. their handing out more money to greedy ceos. whats wrong with this picture? and folks its the democrats that have changed since obama became president elect. who`s the lame duck now. jan. 20th can`t come soon enough. maybe the senate and congress will realize obama aint on their side as much as they would like to think they are. after all some of these guys have been in office for 20+ years and they sold their souls long ago to special intrest groups. i`ll vote for a different party next time. thanks

To "Go Home Barry" are you on crack? The GOP and the Democrats are Big (brother) Government enslaver’s of the American citizen.

Long live the voice of Freedom and Liberty coming to America again.

I say good bye Mr. Cheney, do not let the door smack you in the butt as you go.

I got 3 words for Cheney Hit The Road!!!

Wow If I were Joe or Jill I would have my food checked before I ate.

That will be one creepy house tour.

It's like Dracula showing them his lair.

Cheney should be tried for war crimes.

Bush and his master Cheney should both be tried for crimes against humanity. Good riddance to bad garbage.

They should throw him right in jail!

VP Dick Cheney, whom I refer to as the rotweiler, is indeed the most dangerous man in Washington DC, and rivals his boss, President George Bush, as the most despised and unpopular elected official since Richard Nixon. January 20, 2009, cannot come soon enough for me and millions of Americans. Don't let the door hit you on the way out Dick.

Go Home Barry. Please make sure that you go with your HERO next time he goes hunting. Who knows, you might get your wish and end up as his trophy

Dick Cheney deserves to leave office in shackles, criminal that he is. Of course, I fully expect that Bush will pardon him "for any crimes that he might have committed" on the day before he leaves office.

Dick Cheney is evil incarnate. He & Bush should be tried for war crimes and when found guilty sent to Guantanamo to be tortured and water boarded so they get a taste of what they unleashed on this world and as a lesson to any other people who would be "pre-emptive" and misleading.

Cheney isn't even a veteran. It would be a travesty to offer him military honors, an insult to the thousands of lives that have been lost due to his demented ambition to build a global empire.

He is a war criminal, though. The Geneva Conventions are endorsed in law in the US, and he instigated major violations on behalf of the people of the United States.

If Cheney's your hero, the GOP deserves to be out, as well as down.

Dick Cheney and GW Bush should be tried for crimes committed against America!
Built a case for war built around lies…
Gitmo…
Loss of Civil Liberties…
Bankrupted our country…
And the list goes on and on!
As history unfolds itself these two and their Republican followers in the House will go down as the worst leaders this country has ever seen. They will not be able to hide from the truth.

Thankfully, Cheney is leaving office. He was a diservice to the country when serving in both Bush administrations.

It is time to change the way the government does business; for the people, by the people.

WHO CARES, JUST HAVE MRS PALIN CONTINUING TALKING , AND BARRY WILL BE IN UNTIL 2016. YEAH GO SARAH LOL.

Think God, this jerk is going to be gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like Joe to ask Dick one questions on behalf of all taxpayers.

How did the Bush-Paulson-Pelosi-Reid Hole in the Wall Gang pull off the biggest bank heist in history.

Much to my chagrin and to millions of other Americans, we are now being told that the Democratically controlled Congress gave $700 billion of taxpayer funds to the banks as an investment in stock, and the banks can do anything they want with those funds — anything or nothing – and becasue the Government bought stock, the banks to not have to tell the american people what they did or will do with a single penny of those funds. This is the bank heist of the century – but with a twist – the banks, with the help of Pelosi and reid – have robbed America.

I now understand that Pelosi and barney Frank are planning a second heist – this one by the gang of Ford – GM – Chrysler. The government will invest in those dinosaurs and they can do anything they want with the cash – like pay for union benefits and pensions.

AmI alone here folks. Does anyone else get this?

I just hope that Biden doesn't look at Cheney's rifle collection. He risks getting shot. Remember the last time a lawyer was near Cheney when he had a gun? He was shot by Cheney, and that was a friend.

To Go Home Barry: Cheney never served in the military at all by most accounts. He has served in government for many years as well as the private sector. Cheney has tried to alter the laws and the power the VP's office has. That is not deserving of any praise.

I could not be happier than to see Dick Cheney leave. I personally blame him for the Iraq and Afganistan conflicts. He has not been a patriot but has been a Halliburton liason the White House. His self serving bias has caused many a family to grieve over there brave loved one who paid the ultimate sacrifice. I do not wish him good luck or God speed. I hope he just goes away, much like the last few years.

GOOD BYE TO CROOK CHENEY!

GOOD BYE TO CROOK CHENEY!

GOOD BYE TO CROOK CHENEY!

GOOD BYE TO CROOK CHENEY!

GOOD BYE TO CROOK CHENEY!

GOOD BYE TO CROOK CHENEY!

Good riddance to bad rubbish!

I just want to put one note out there. It has been confirmed that Gov Palin was lied about concerning Africa and other issues stated by MSNBC. The lies of a person who was supposed to be on the campaign team were actually spread by one Eitan Gorlin and his male partner. In other words, if people will not shoot themselves in the foot then demorats will do it for them. Before you liberal bed wetters get to upset remember obama stated there are 58 states in the US and Iran is a tiny country that is no threat to the US even in this world of dirty bombs the size of a shoe box or smaller.

GOOD RIDDANCE TO BUSH AND HIS SIDEKICK CHENEY!!

GOOD RIDDANCE TO BUSH AND HIS SIDEKICK CHENEY!!

GOOD RIDDANCE TO BUSH AND HIS SIDEKICK CHENEY!!

What Planet are you on "Go Home Barry"? What drugs are you taking? Dick Cheney will go down in history on the list of the WORST
VICE PRESIDENTS. Dick Cheney had a energy summit back in 2000, I wonder what type of energy strategic was developed? Check the out trading prices of oil and gas for the past two years. Wonder how's Cheney's financial situation today? Bet you he make some profits! The GOP is a party which is in need of new faces. Faces which reflects the "true" United States of America 2008.

You've got to be kidding – Cheney is the WORST VP this country has ever seen, Instead of Military honors, he should be arrested and imprisoned for misleading the American people into war!

This is for GO HOME Barry…. I do believe that Cheney did not serve in the military….. But it is true with the wars that have gone on since he vetted himself for VP…. all the services might want to play their bands to see him go home.

Your name says it all……Go Home Berry and stop drinking the koolaid. Hero- full military honors? You are jesting, right?

We will celebrate all right – just not for the reasons you state. OMG

PLease JOE , Just DON'T GO on a hunt trip with him !

I notice that no one even tries to calculate the approval/disapproval rate for Dick.

I can't imagine anyone with less credibility in this Administration.

I wish Dick the best of luck in his transition to the obscurity he so richly deserves

You have GOT to be kidding. He should be in jail

The name fits. He ran this country into the ground. GOP is done. They are out of touch and out of ideas. Who is going to save them Sara Palin, oh please. I wont vote republican until they change their ways. Jindal is the only one who can save them and he should just wait till 2016.

Dick Cheney is a loser who is a serious liability to this nation. There are a lot of Republicans worthy of respect, but he isn't one of them.

DICK,
GODSPEED.

I wouldn't take any food from them….

Dick Cheney is a coward, draft dodger, and convicted drunk driver.

This is ONE AMERICAN, let's all act accordingly.

Dick Cheney deserves to be handed over to the international tribunal in the Hague to stand trial for war crimes. 800,000.00 dead Iraqis demand it!

Dick Cheney is NOT a HERO and deserves to leave office and GO DIRECTLY TO JAIL!! It should be televised, and if he's convicted of treason he should be publicly hanged!!

The GOP has gone down in flames, and as long as their party is controlled by right-wing radicals that are out of touch with the common voter, they just won't win any offices back. The only thing they can do in an election is spread fear and use negative campaign tactics and our nation's voters have tired of their lame rhetoric.

I love and admire The Bidens as much as I do The Obamas. They make a great team. I just love Jill, she is so smart and an educator, too.

A comendable job CNN has done Photoshopping a smile on this ogre's face. Must have taken tens of manhours.

Then again, I hope thats a fake smile. Cheney actually smiling with this few days left in office could mean the Bush Adminstration's biggest blow to the American people could still be in the wings. Merry Christmas, everyone….and duck.

Cheney is a war-crininal who authorised torture and a war of agression in Iraq and war-profiteer who has made a lot of money for Haliburton in Iraq with no-bid contracts. He should be impeached and led out of the Whitehouse in handcuffs.

Dick Cheney is a CRIMINAL and deserves to leave office in handcuffs. In fact, it should be televised to serve as a warning for future would-be-tramplers of the constitution.

"Long live the GOP"? Whatever….

Biden! If he asks to show you where he keeps the safe, dont go!!

He might just try to lock you up in his man sized safe!! That evil evil man.

Hey Dick. On your way to where ever it is that you are going, could you stick Sarah Palin in your sock and take her with you?

Joe and Jill, please watch your back and if you hear shots run like heck.
And to Go Home Barry – they have hospitals for your affliction, you ought to check yourself in. Hopefully cheyney will be tried for his numerous crimes.

W? Is that you!?

The grownups leave and Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber now take over. God help us!

You keep clinging to that raft, Barry Butkiss. They should all be in jail soon.

HOPE JOE BRINGS A FLACK JACKET

To all you people to include many woman who are bashing Palin give it up. The only reason all of the woman groups dislike her is A) She doesnt look like the typical liberal woman (Short haired and manly looking) and B) She doesnt believe in killing babies.

Give it rest I thought you were the party of Peace, love, Gay and happy

Hey Look ,
Dick Cheney's Come out of his bunker!

I hope that Joe Biden will get to like living in Washington DC. His advice and councel needs to be that close to President Obama at all times. In my book, Biden should have been President a long time ago. He & Obama are not just good men…but Great Men!

OK all you liberals, get out your best bashing of the Bush/Chaney years.

We'll see how safe Obama keeps this Country and where his socialist/marxist beliefs and programs take this Country.

Your hate and lies about both Bush and Chaney are just disgusting.

Cheney's endorsement for McCain three days before the election says it all, my friends.

And I'm betting Cheney relishes all the negative things said against him as a "badge of honor." He knows what he is and what he is responsible for. He has to live with it but having a leather conscience, he'll be fine.

Biden better sit with his back to the wall….and don't drink the water!!!

Cheney's hands are covered in more blood than Bush's are…he was the Puppet Master behind a lot of the Bush policies…

So long Dick….good riddance!!!!!!

sooner the better. Cheney agenda and ego cost this country a lot of lost lives and damaged our reputation.

He IS the bitter face and attitude of the GOP and will not be missed.

One thing for certain, with Biden's consident gaffs he would be funnier than Cheney was. Maybe Joe will take his boss bird hunting sometime in the next four years.

from office to world court to prison that is the path he desreves. nothing else.

Dick Cheney is a war criminal who deserves to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of international law. He ordered individuals tortured BY NAME. Think about what that means. The Vice President of the United States of America, naming individual people– who hadn't even been charged with a crime, no less– singling them out to be tortured.

If that's the exemplar of the modern day GOP, not only are their policies bankrupt, but their morals are too.

And what foreign country do you live in?

The fact that he is leaving makes you wonder if he ever arrived! His accomplishments other then shooting his hunting partner was nil.

So long do nothing Cheney, except keep the oil companies in money and padding your own pockets. He does not deserve a nod.

Dick Cheney is the worst thing to happen to US foreign policy in my lifetime, and my parent's lifetime. He deserves to leave office in a hearse.

The GOP got its comeuppance a few days ago. It's back to being the party of disaffected Appalachian rednecks, nothing more.

IRRELEVANT.

Let me first reply to the first comment made on this post. Military honors aren't given to those who do not serve in the military. They aren't given to to those who receive five service deferments and make statements years later like "I had other priorities in the '60s than military service." That's not to say that receiving a deferment makes you a bad person, but it does disqualify you from receiving honors from an organization with which you never served.

Also, "Go Home Barry"? That's a little childish, isn't it? The man hasn't been inaugurated yet. Let's give him ten seconds to screw up before we start in with that.

i don't expect Biden to be a perfect VP. The fact that he was hit with substantial charges of plagiarism during his first run for president doesn't endear him to me. Still, I'm absolutely convinced that he will be better for the country than Cheney has been. Cheney seems to believe that his office gives him infallibility, and he has made claims to powers that the Constitution doesn't bestow him. He ran a campaign of fear during the 2004 election and talked loudly about threats that mysteriously dried up immediately after election day. My overall impression of him is that he was interested in molding America to his own ideals, rather than living up to those of the Constitution and the people he was intended to serve.

If ever I have seen the true face of evil, it is Dick Cheney.

If Dick Cheney is a hero, then my name must be jesus christ.

hahahahhaha to go home barry… i needed to laugh this morning

Dick Cheney is a WAR CRIMINAL and deserves to be tried at the Hague.

@ go home barry

If you really believe Cheney is a hero… I want what you're smoking… to give to Palin and shut her up. You all belong on an island where nuclear (new-clear) waste is stored…
Oh yea, if you haven't noticed, you are OUT!
See 'ya

Are kidding? Cheney has made tons of money from the failed policies he helped institute, especially from Haliburton (sp?). He ripped all of us off.
His finally leaving should be cheered. People should dance in the streets.
Good riddance!

"Go Home Barry" sounds like you got John McCain's talking points from the closing days of the election. RA! RA! RA!

nasty inhuman creature!!!

To go Home Barry, I have one question. Are you on crack?

DON'T DRINK THE TEA, JOE.

To "Go Home Barry": Get your meds adjusted.

Good can't wait until he leaves Bye Bye he's been nothing but trouble

Pardon me, but what have you been smoking this morning, sir?

I didn't realize Dick Cheney was still alive.

Thanks for serving our country Mr. Cheney. When the rest of the country is finally made aware of the finding of the 550 metric tonnes of Uranium Yellowcake, and it's subsequent removal on the 'QT' so the bad guys wouldn't get at it to make any dirty bombs, then they might begin to understand the pivital role you really played.

Funny how the MSM just stopped the stories about how 'Lies led to War' without any real explanation as to why…history will be very kind.

Well done and Godspeed.

Hahaha.. Of all things, a HERO? Maybe you should leave your 'office' as a moron. Perhaps w/ a marching kazoo band.

Time for Cheney to put the shredders into overdrive.

He can not leave soon enough, with any luck they will investigate and put him in prison.

The mother of all scourge is finally going to be leaving us. This neo-con has single handedly destroyed our country in the last eight years. Dick Cheyney deserves no less than Benito Mussolini.

I agree he should leave office with full military honors. A FIRING SQUAD!!!!

Dick Cheney is a HERO and deserves to leave office with full military honors. In fact, it should be televised and possibly the NAVY band should play as well.

Long live the GOP !! We are down but certainly NOT out!!!
