(By the way, was his daughter Liz estranged from him? I never heard her publicly condemn him so I imagine she was still in contact with her dad. Lots of DUers seemed to like Liz because she put down Trump. Similar to liking Dubya--arguably a war criminal every bit as much Cheney was--simply because he was friendly with Michelle Obama and may have said things against Trump. Even though this very site began as a reaction to Dubya's administration. )

I recall them making some kind of joint statement regarding Trump within the last year.

There was a time I'd have danced and sung my way through an aria in celebration because he was the most diabolical evil person ever...geesh...what did I know?

Please...

My only other wish is to never see his spawn's clueless face or hear her whining again. Ever.

N/t

D.U.
I read every blog on the Internet!

Weapons of master destruction.

That, and voting today!

It took far too long to get to this point.

But it's also a moment where you realize how "young" he was at 59/60 when he was elected VP.

Just makes me dread Vance all the more, but it also reinforces that things aren't going to go well for Trump for much longer.

Evil surely ages

Anyways, he sucked

He is not charismatic. There is no possible universe outside of the absurd one we currently occupy in which JD Vance rises beyond chairman of a minor library board in stature.

Let me try to summon up some sadness and tears......


Nope. I got nothing. One more evil, self-serving bastard has left our planet. Now can we have a twofer?? Make my day.

I certainly wouldn't leave out his accomplice in war crimes, GW Bush.

Cheney & Bush are a set of two, for the same reason.

He was just the frat boy doofus who took his direction from Cheney. Doesn't mean I like him but I don't believe he was evil like Trump and Cheney. Would I shed a tear over Bush Jr.? Nope. But for the most part, he's persona non gratis these days, just painting his toes in the bathtub.

Accountability and justice are non-negotiable.

I'd rather see Trump live in prison than die on his throne.

Come on trumpie make some headlines.

Not to speak ill of the dead.

for when the one who is many times worse dies.

I'm laughing right now, the world seems a tiny bit brighter with the knowledge that evil can die.

I have no regrets.

Dickhead Chaney was a warmongering, motherfucking, self aggrandizing, dishonest, criminal asshole may he rot in hell

Some of these guys last way longer than their sell-by date.

.. not the one I had most hoped for.

And that guy thought drumpf was evil… just think about that.

... one of the true inspirations for republicanism today...

I wonder how much our heart affects our choices in life.

Dick Cheney is dead. Good!

*********
He WAS my base standard for evilness. But that hasn't been the case since The Great Fatsby was thrust upon us!.

But I’m certainly not saddened by this news.

But if you still don't celebrate, I'll celebrate twice as hard.

And there is one case for which I’ll make an exception and celebrate with you! May it be soon!

On the other hand, Cheney WAS responsible for Roberts and Alito, without whom Trump would be nowhere.

Maybe it just boils down to how much, if any, Trump ever saw of that $9 billion in cash that disappeared in the Iraqi desert during Cheney’s momentary lapse of memory.

He was an evil man and did not deserve a long life.

about him is that he was against trump. Someone asked about his daughter. His wife, Lynn & both his daughters, Liz and Mary, were with him when he died.

Someone needs to make sure.

He shot Harry Whittington, a 78-year-old Texas attorney, with his 28-gauge Perazzi shotgun while on a quail hunt on a ranch in Texas.

Better check again, just to be sure.

And make sure he doesn't come back to this side.

That's all I will say at this time.

a reflection of the times.

Bob Dole did the same.........

would be a good thing. Decades before when Clinton was in office there was no way he would vote for it--especially with Hillary trying to get it going.

I thought that was really unnecessary when I saw it… especially when I saw someone else point out the ridiculousness of it :

He's dead. Good.

what karma must have in store for him? As for his passing, I am not sad.

We are running out of people from the Vietnam era, and there have been a heck of a lot more people who got out of going, than went. Off the top of my head those who went were and ran for president

Gore
McCain
Kerry

those who didn't
Romney, Cheney, Trump, Clinton, Biden. I'd certainly place Bush in this category too.

For many of that generation what you did mattered.

I can't blame the guy one bit. The Vietnam Era was over 50 years ago, so most of those contemporaries are retired or gone to their greater reward by now.

He would have been a danger to himself and others.

Get him in the ground and cover him up WELL!! Pour cement over the grave, and cover it with boulders. DO NOT let that creature come back from the dead!

the same thing. Let's see who comes next, on the political spectrum.

Dick Cheney is dead.

Good.


(Apologies to Bette Davis)

I often said that, if I knew how, I'd murder him, life in prison notwithstanding. Good riddance.

Today, he ruined grave dancing.

Cheney released a statement announcing his endorsement of Democratic nominee, then-Vice President Kamala Harris for President over Trump in September 2024.

He knew how dangerous trump is

"Go Fuck Yourself"

Fucker lied to start a war in order to become a billionaire with his cost plus no bid contracts that
with the D o D that he got started as Sec. of Defense.

🎼🎵 Ding-dong
The Dick is dead
The wicked Dick
The mean ol' Dick
Ding-dong
The wicked Dick is dead! 🎶
🥳🍾🥂

are burning extra hot this morning. He was such a horrible person that even Death didn't want him.

That these things happen in threes…🤞

Another asshole hits the dirt.

Dick Cheney is dead. Good.

Anyway.

Well, this day is off to a good start!

Well as they say it comes in three's.

RIP Dick.

Didn't realize there was any change.
