ENHANCED TORTURE TECHNIQUES

How Dare Ye Speak Of A Former Vice President So Rudely, You DNC Vulgarians

Well look at this! The DNC has made the decision to go out of its way, now, to engage Dick Cheney and his cartoonish teevee babble about murder and blood and global sadness. Maybe now that the mighty DNC has spoken up, teevee anchors will be too scared to bring Dick Cheney on their shows to tell his lies! This is how things work, on television. [Greg Sargent]

    Oh yes, I’m sure this will end well. *headslap*

  2. GreatOldOnesParty says at 3:20 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    send Cheney to the Death Panels!

    He’s outlived his usefulness to society and must be made into mulch like everyone else’s grampa.

  3. proudgrampa says at 3:23 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: Hey, careful!

  4. Gopherit says at 3:24 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Next from the DNC: The sky is blue!

  5. SayItWithWookies says at 3:26 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Shame on the Democrats for playing politics with torture.

  6. Nerdalicious says at 3:27 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Holy Crap, anyone who can come off more evil than Sonny Boy Georgie, Rove, Rumsfeld & Co. is off the charts uber evil.

  7. Canmon (the Inadequate) says at 3:27 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Why is the DNC picking on the defenseless old man? What has he done to deserve this?

  8. norbizness says at 3:28 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    The day he stops getting invited on Fox News to spew fascist nonsense is the day he goes to OCP and has his brain placed in a cyborg body.

  9. Okay, but they should have made it feature length.

  10. loudensspam says at 3:32 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Dick’s got one foot in the grave. Liz is the truth-stretching, lie-telling, fear-mongering Cheney you should be worried about.

    My prediction - (Liz) Cheney/Gingrich Ticket for 2012 - where American will be able to break through that glass cieling, once and for all.

  11. dum librul says at 3:35 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty:
    1) The death panels would not survive such an encounter.

    2) Mulch where nothing will ever grow again. Even after the big crunch/eternal return stuff.

  12. Scruffy_The_Janitor says at 3:36 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Who is this Chaney you speak of??? and why are his glasses not leveled?

  13. memzilla says at 3:36 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    But if Cheneys are outlawed, only outlaws will have Cheneys.

  14. bureaucrap says at 3:36 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Cheney has already sent orders through his loyal Pentagon people to begin carpet bombing the DNC.

  15. Nerdalicious says at 3:38 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Prez is addressing a joint session of congress the day after Labor Day about Health Reform. This is really a huge mess. Several outlets are repeatedly reporting he is also dropping the public option (again) At least 100 Dems in Congress will not vote for bill without public option. Nice tribute to Ted Kennedy sneaking this nonsense thru then naming the bill after him. Shame Shame Shame

  16. I’ve spent my entire life being lied to by some Republican named Dick, and I’m too old to be able to quit now.

    But if anyone has a couple of anti bullshit dependency patches, I’d like to give them a whirl.

  17. This nice little DNC video is all well and good, but will it ever make it onto the “teevee”, the one real americans watch?

  18. Nerdalicious says at 3:44 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    There is nothing he can say on Monday to appease the Progressives if he drops the public option. Nothing.

  19. user-of-owls says at 3:51 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Quasi: I’ve spent my entire life being lied to by some Republican named Dick

    So Eisenhower’s campaign slogan was actually “I Like Dick”?

  20. user-of-owls says at 3:52 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: Do you enjoy these chats you have with yourself?

  21. Instead of making some half-assed TV spot, how about finding some leadership that has actual testicles?

    Oh, wait, these are the Democrats…

  22. trickyrick says at 3:59 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    I say lets waterboard Cheney and then decide. waterboarding…torture? not torture?.
    Only Dick will be able to tell us the truth.

  23. Nerdalicious says at 3:59 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    user-of-owls:
    Yes I fucking well do how about yours asswipe?

  24. Nerdalicious says at 4:03 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    user-of-owls:
    “So Eisenhower’s campaign slogan was actually “I Like Dick”?”
    So classy, is this how they talk at the trailer park hoe down?

  25. Larry Fine says at 4:03 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    The DNC forgot to mention in its little film that Dick Cheney shot that guy in the face on that hunting trip.

  26. Humpback says at 4:05 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Cheney/Torquemada 2012!

  27. V572625694 says at 4:06 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: user-of-owls: Can’t we all just get along?

  28. Scruffy_The_Janitor says at 4:08 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    fight! fight! fight! …I got $5 on the owl…

  29. Nerdalicious says at 4:09 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    V572625694:
    Hi, I agree with you completely but check the thread & see who started this nonsense, & who needs to get a life. I never attack anyone here, not even Neilist.

  30. Come here a minute says at 4:12 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Dick Cheney is the best.

  31. Come here a minute says at 4:12 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Get a BRAIN, moran.

  32. Come here a minute says at 4:14 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Come here a minute: You are an asshole. Fuck you.

  33. Come here a minute says at 4:17 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Come here a minute: No, fuck you.

  34. Suds McKenzie says at 4:22 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Somewhere, Chris Wallace is sobbing in the corner of a padded room.

  35. user-of-owls says at 4:26 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: Right up front: sorry. I meant the crack in a “smart alecky” sort of way, but it obviously came out in an “assholey” way. So, again: I apologize. I don’t apologize that “you took it the wrong way”, but in the actual “sorry I did that” way.

    p.s. Oh, and apologies to Scruffy too. I owe you a fiver.

  36. Jim89048 says at 4:30 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Come here a minute: That’s how it always starts…

  37. Scruffy_The_Janitor says at 4:34 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    It’s ok owl..you can make it up to me in other ways…
    and by other ways I do mean in sexual positions..

  38. user-of-owls says at 4:35 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Scruffy_The_Janitor: One Fecaltini coming right up!

  39. Nerdalicious says at 4:36 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    user-of-owls:
    Something you don’t even know: For some reason, I can’t see embedded videos for the last few days on my computer (I’m trying to fix this tonight) so on some of these I just wing it, without being able to see the videos. That aside. I am not an “attacker”. This is pure fun. I don’t even attack Neilist or any of that ilk. The joint session Monday is big news & will most likely be blogged live here. So, it is very timely. I was just passing that info along. I had a bad accident this summer, & I am recuperating & just trying to keep up with things. Anyway, meh whatever. I accept your apology of course, but really read again what you wrote to me out of the blue.

  40. slappypaddy says at 4:38 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    y’all demmer crats better run, he put a fresh battery in his pacemaker and he’s got his shotgun. duck!

    i mean, pull!

  41. Torture is wrong. Who the hell cares if it works or not?

  42. Dick Cheney,
    Do not fuck off gently into that dark night,
    just fuck off.

  43. Scruffy_The_Janitor says at 4:43 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    owl: shaken, not stirred….two olives please…

  44. user-of-owls says at 4:48 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Scruffy_The_Janitor: two olives please

    Pre-digested ok?

  45. slappypaddy says at 5:24 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: recuperation v. things? recuperation wins every time. things will stagger along in their maddening way whilst you recuperate. we’ll keep a light on for you, and won’t forget to feed the snark.

    nice hair.

  46. geminisunmars says at 5:37 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: A snarkilicious recuperation to you. Laughter being the best medicine, after overthrowing the forces of evil, of course.

  47. gurukalehuru says at 5:37 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    The DNC are such fucking pussies its embarrassing. Wrong? Wrong? Try psychopathic,genocidal, delusional, paranoid war monger then, psychopath, genocidal, delusional, paranoid war monger now. Fixed.

  48. Nerdalicious says at 5:43 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    slappypaddy:
    Did ya read my book? “The Governor”? Please read so I can feed the poors & sicks I stole from in the great state of Lincoln (insert poem, Ghandi reference)
    Thanks :)

  49. Nerdalicious says at 5:46 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    geminisunmars:
    Thanks Friends :). As I always say, you all crack me up a lot. So, yes, that’s why me & my blabbering hang around.

  50. Accordion-o-rama says at 7:27 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Ha, ha.

    Shoot ‘em, Dick!

  51. GreatOldOnesParty says at 10:10 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: No, that’s how we talk on the Wonkette.

  52. DoctorCulturae says at 10:27 pm, September 2nd, 2009

    Sorry Dems, ad fail. Since when has ‘wrong’ been deemed a problem for wingnuts? Pitiful Dems, still fighting yesteryears battles.

    Consensus and logic are great for determining policy and education, but governing means leading with your private parts and weathering the inevitable storm. Isn’t it interesting Bill & Hill have gone quiet lately?

  53. ” I don’t even attack Neilist or any of that ilk”

    Oh sweet irony…ilk?

  54. widget09 says at 9:27 am, September 3rd, 2009

    I think he may be Joe the Dipshit’s illegitimate son.
