I like Cheney - smart fellow. I like the daughter who appears on Fox News. The other daughter, none of my business.
Sarah’s polarizing for some reason. I don’t doubt that the cause is “fear”, the libs fear her. Problem is that they’re loud, obnoxious, rude and will lie through 6 sets of teeth and shout if from every rooftop. They’re brainwashed and they brainwash the weak around them.

Oh, please. Yes, Cheney wants to fire Obamugabe.
The quotes I’ve read from Cheney aren’t an attack on Palin...he compliments Palin, but says a two-year tenure as a governor isn’t sufficient, in his opinion, to be the VEEP.
How is that out of line? It isn’t.
Yes, Palin had more executive experience than Biden or Obama or McCain...which says she was more experienced than any of them, but still not experienced enough in the opinion of Cheney.
One COULD take Cheney’s comments to be more complimentary of Palin and more critical of the other three candidates.
G.W. Bush had 5+ years of governorship of Texas.
Reagan had 8 years of a governorship of California.
Clinton had 8 years of a governorship of Arkansas.
The modern record is pretty clear: governors with a MORE THAN ONE TERM are best suited to the Presidency. (No, I don’t consider Clinton a great President, but he was a two term President like the others.)
Which of course gives one pause for Romney: he only has had ONE term as a governor. But I also believe Romney’s private sector experience makes him a much better choice than Obamugabe.
But I digress.
We conservatives do not do ourselves a favor when we “rush” candidates into the national spotlight. Let our governors succeed for a couple of terms: Walker, Christie, Haley, Scott, McDonnell, Jindal...then when they’ve built a solid record (like Reagan!!!) then they can take their place in the national debate.
I love Sarah, I’ve given to SarahPAC, and I enthusiastically voted for her in 2008. But she is doing God’s work where she is now, and I think it is absurd for us to attack people who, while they like her (didn’t Dick Cheney say that, too?), also believe she wasn’t as fully prepared as she could have been?
Also, anyone find it amazing that SUDDENLY the Obamugabe ass kissing media now is INTERESTED in what Dick Cheney thinks?? :)
Ya know what partner? I think you are right.
The GOP wopuld rather exist under Obama than Sarah Palin.
Sarah cleaned out the crappy Republicans in Canada as well as the crappy Democrats, and the crappy Republicans in Washington don’t want that happening.
These are the same folks that use to go to the media and bemoan how they were embarrassed about Reagan....some things never change
Hmm, vp, sec of defense, chief of staff, congress.
You’re right, no good experience there.
Some of us are so childish. So he wouldn’t go the Sara Palin route, boo hoo woe is me. It means Cheney is an evil RINO. /s
I would vote for Palin for president, but probably for Cheney first. Big deal get over it.
No more impotent than you are to stop his criticism of Palin.
DICK CHENEY: JOHN MCCAIN MADE A MISTAKE CHOOSING SARAH PALIN FOR RUNNING MATE
McCain would not have gotten half the votes he did if it hadn’t been for Sarah. Cheney smart? Define smart. Bill Clinton is smart but I would trust him as far as I could throw him.
Dick Cheney can go stuff it. Why say anything about Palin? What good does that do, Dick?
You really revealed yourself this time.
Of course it is. He was allowed to pick himself as VP when working on that assignment for president-elect George W. Bush.
I’m not questioning Cheney’s conservatism, I’m questioning his intellect.
Anyone who followed the 2008 election and is unable to comprehend that a) Palin was the only chance McCain had of winning, and b) McCain restrained Palin to the point of flushing that chance down the toilet (all by himself), simply fails the intellect test.
Maybe it’s his age; maybe we’ve just been snowed by him in the past. Whatever it is, what he’s saying now is very stupid. He’s either senile or he had a lot of help covering up his low IQ in the past.
For the sake of his good memory I’m willing to accept the senile defense.
Cheney is not conservative except in some areas, he is part of the Romney/Rove wing of the GOP which has proven that they will give up seats and elections to stop Palin and the Reagan wing of the GOP.
Remember that Cheney is a social liberal who supported homosexualizing the military.
The establishment republicans are little more than Dem Lite infiltrating the GOP. They go after their own with as much zeal and the democrats do. We will not get America back until they have all been tossed from the Nation and state capitols.
Makes one wonder what he thought of the experience of Abraham Lincoln before he became President.
If you were honest with yourself-neither McCain nor Palin were qualified.McCain was running his mouth in 68 and beyond. Palin had no clue where certain foreign countries were just like a kid who failed geography. She was not very bright about history either.I hate to admit it but Romney got an MBA plus a JD from Harvard and he was not AA.
What, is Canada about the 56th of the 57 States or something?
Agree. Cheney needs to shut up. We paid for enough heart surgeries that he owe’s us millions.
