Palin to Cheney: Careful where you aim
CNN ^ | Aug 1 2012 | CNN

Posted on 08/01/2012 9:34:15 PM PDT by WilliamIII

Don't expect to see Sarah Palin and Dick Cheney on an elk hunt anytime soon.

The former Alaska governor slammed Cheney Tuesday for his assertion that it was a mistake to put her on the 2008 GOP ticket, saying the former vice president was being influenced by the "lamestream media."

Appearing to reference a now-infamous incident from 2006 when Cheney accidentally shot a campaign contributor on a quail hunt, Palin said sarcastically that Cheney was not known for his "misfires."

"Seeing as how Dick – excuse me, Vice President Cheney – never misfires, then evidently he's quite convinced that what he had evidently read about me by the lamestream media, having been written, what I believe is a false narrative over the last four years, evidently Dick Cheney believed that stuff and that's a shame," Palin said in an appearance on Fox News.

I wish he would not have done this. For his service to this country and strong fight against our enemies, he really is an American hero.

I said much the same thing when I first heard about this a night or two ago. Why the heck would he need to jump on the bash Palin bandwagon?! He doesn’t think she’s been pummelled enough by the left? Geez, Mr. Cheney, I thought you were smart enough to focus on the real problems and demons in this country, and it ain’t Sarah Palin.

Maybe I should page the old man? I usually don't b****, but this is weird. Maybe I have stalker moderator? LOL!

But it proves someone is paying attention Mum. Not all is lost!

Thanks for not missing a beat Mum!

“..sometimes you are the Louisville Slugger, baby, and sometimes you are the ball, and evidently in these last months, per many, many comments from those within the GOP establishment, I’m the ball.”

This is CNN, and the adjectives and adverbs are BS on their faces.

Her retort was sound. Listen to it. Lamestream lies.

I agree, and Cheney dident even get his facts strait, Sarah’s 2 years as Governor and many more as Mayor made her the most relevantly experience person running for president or vice president that year.

Legislative experience does not translate to executive experience. If anything the political baggage hurts you. That is why no president that has come from either the house or the senate turned out to be very good.

An executive has to lead men of all factions to practical goals not usually set himself. Legislator has to represent a small pardisin faction of men & ideology to create and advance a proposed goal.

A Legislator will find himself disagreeable by most, and can deal with even being hated by most. An executive cannot deal with being hated by most and must find a way to get most to agree with at least enough of the set agenda to implement it.

Cheney simply validates the bad feeling about the "old boy" network, snapping at the mere mortals who question the superior dorks who oppose new conservative blood.
Imagine our nerve, supporting Palin, and embracing the tea Party philosophy.

Senile old men, resisting the challenge of citizens demanding principle over expediency and embracing the progressive definition of 'bipartisanship,' aka you lose.

The most embarrassing assertion was that 2 years as governor did not prepare Palin for the presidency.

Against an elected manchurian candidate with only "community activism" on his "executive" resume?

Senility does not begin to explain it.

Yes indeed -— Other than the worst recession since the Depression, his time as vice president was simply great!

I tend to somewhat agree with ya Bill.

I liked Cheney, but his boss was a whole nuther story. It was Cheney who should have been POTUS.

For his service to this country

What branch of the service did Cheney serve in?

right, I don’t Cheney ever wore the uniform. kind of strange to be a secretary of defense, and never served in the military.

Sounds Horrible. Palin yes,Cheney no. Cheney is an elitist ‘New World Order’ type,who is no where near as Conservative as he pretends to be. He worked for Globalists Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford and George W.Bush. He lead the search for Gerald Ford’s VP and came up with Nelson Rockefeller. Talk about a One world government leftie Oligarch. Cheney also headed one of the Major New World Order organization’s,’The Council on Foreign Relation’s’. He also as VP admitted,he kept that fact hidden from his Wyoming constituents. Sarah Palin is the Real Deal. That is why the establishment keeps attacking her.
