I think this column must have been the winner of a creative writing contest.

The writer fantasizes a world in the Republicans are so stupid as to dump the sitting Vice President because the liberal moonbats believe he is the dark lord of the underworld.

Then the Republicans take their most promising presidential candidate, Fred Thompson, and make him Vice President, thereby tying the unpopular Bush around his neck like an albatross.

As I say, good for some laughs.

Many thanks to the poster and to the pinger of this nonsense. I can go to bed laughing at the absurdity of Ms.
Quinn’s little middle school article.

I love Dick [Darth] Cheney. He makes little puddles of pee appear by moonbats’ little talons—er—feet.

If ONLY they could get rid of him, if only...why, they could RULE THE WORLD! Muawahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

"laughs"

Remember when all the lib media "geniuses" were predicting the ouster of Condi Rich a few years back? They were falling all over themselves analyzing her downfall and how the Republicans were going to handle it. Supposedly she was going to take the blame for not finding Hussein's storehouses of wmds. Obviously it never happened. As the Cheney ouster won't happen.

Cheney can’t drag down the party and ensure a Dem win next year. Bush has a lock on that job.

The Left has just gone totally bonkers over Cheney flexing his muscles on this separation of powers issue. It’s pretty hilarious.

How about we oust Bush and make Cheney President. THAT would make much more sense. Then perhaps we could bring Thompson in as VP, set him up for the Presidency! That’s a fantasy I could live with!!

this week's blockbuster series in The Post

Nothing like a little self-aggrandizement to start off a fantasy column.

Removing a sitting vice president is not easy, but this may be the moment.

Written for consumption of the DU, MoveOn and Kos crowd.

Oust Cheney???

I was hoping that George W. would resign (or maybe get impeached due to his insane support for illegal immigration) and Cheney would be elevated to PRESIDENT!!!

Somehow, I cannot see Cheney doing all these IDIOTIC things George W has been doing these past three years.

Anyone else concur??

The ONLY place Mr. Cheney is going is...fishing! In about 18 months. For the rest of his life, LOL! God Bless Him. :)

The new journalism - fantasy - something we can all engage in.

I have dreams of the Washington Post cult compound burning to the ground, the metrosexual Post writers flogged in the public square and the female Marxists branded with the hammer and sickle on their foreheads.

That leaves Fred Thompson. Everybody loves Fred.

Apparently so does Sally Quinn. I'm amazed by this man's effect on women.

Dear Sally Quinn,

You lefties should pray every night that nothing happens to Pres. Bush or you will wake up to Pres. Cheney. Muahahahah!

Always a big time Dick Cheney fan,
McGruff

Sally Quinn is still alive? Isn’t she the mother of Helen Thomas...

They are trying to get Cheney removed so that when they impeach Bush, Pelosi gets to be President.

Boy, you’re right. Old Sally, grand dame of DC hosteses, just can’t keep her hands out of her husband’s (Ben Bradlee - Washington Post Vice President At Large and the newspaper’s former executive editor) pot, although I’m sure he’s not a reluctant accomplice.

I also find her position as co-writer “On Faith” totally laughable.

They’re still so afraid of big, bad Cheney. So for the Washington COMpost, speculation now passes for news. Disgraceful.

Thanks, Mom...;)
This sounds like a hit piece on Fred Thompson to me.
Thats who it would hurt the most, if this lame brained asinine idea ever come to fruition.
Actually, isn't this a favorite trick of the marxist regimes?
Annoint the predecessor by removing someone and placing the anointed in that position?

These people are scared.
They are scared of Fred Thompson, and they are most assuredly afraid of the conservative grassroots movement.
