AMERICAblog: Cheney overrides scientists in whale conservation effort

    Extending that logic we should speed thru School Zones to avoid the increase of driving time they cause. They don't call him "Big Dick" for nothing.

    Cheney and the Republicans love two things ... money and war. Everything else is crap.

    It is clear by your comment that you don't live in the Washington DC area - here the posted speed limit in school zones and elsewhere is treated as a suggested minimum speed...

    I always wondered HOW Cheney was actually spending his time since he works in such secrecy. Perhaps he is trying to build a super duper giant Bush?

    You know, a gigundo Bush would take hundreds of men, women and babies who quietly pounded away while constructing the giant, hollow (goes without saying) Bush figurine in which Cheney can hide his weapon until the new administration comes in. Such a feat would take months and months of hard sweaty work, day in and night out.

    Once the "new guys" took over, very quietly Dickie would have his minions secretly open the hatch of the giant Bush (on the tippee top of his head) to release his super secret weapon: a parallel world's version of Bush, just done with REALLY big ears!

    What would Giant "parallel world" Bush's first words be?

    Apparently, Dick Cheney does not even believe in the basic laws of physics. Of course an impact with a slower moving vessel would cause less injuries to a whale. When I was on QM2, we came to a near dead stop because there were whales in the area. Of course, Cunard does not want to look like a-holes by plowing into a group of whales. Thank you for listening.

    If Hillary falls down in DC and there's no one there to hear it; would she make a sound?

    And, did anyone see Cheney's bedmate, The Chimp, proposing a "program" to aid developing countries experiencing "food insecurity?"

    Just another program to help out their buddies in Big Ag, with their genetically modified crap, insecticides and herbicides, not small farmers, as we can see in India, where an article posted yesterday cited 166,000 small farmers in India who have committed suicide.

    Everything touched by these assholes turn to shit--and not the good kind because polluted shit is what comes out of this regime--if it's used, it causes all kinds of monstrous results.

    Mr. Cheney's staff could be presented with the evidence embroidered with gold thread on the finest silk and their response would be, "but isn't this just a theory?"

    Probably not the first time the words "Cheney" and "beached whale" have appeared together in the same article.

    And why the hell is the Vice President's office involved in a marine biology issue? What expertise does Cheney bring to oceanography apart from getting excited at the sight of oil spills?
    Authoritarianism over knowledge -- "It's true because I'm the boss and I say so". It's the Repiglikkkan way.

    Um last I checked the Office of Vice President has little or no power in the Constitution, how is he able to do this? Has he committed a coup?
