What are the ramifications of an angry, hateful billionaire VP facing historic disgrace?

Seriously...we've had hateful crazy people living in sheds (Ted Kozinski) who garnered media attention. But what about NOW. What might happen when a war-profiteering billionaire hate-monger like Dick Cheney sets out on a "Love The Hate" tour?

Your average hate-monger doesn't have the resources that a former Vice President Hate Monger has.

The low-rent hate mongers like Kozinski, the Unibomber, were, well, low rent. But Cheney has serious resources at his disposal with with to terrorize the nation. We're seeing the beginnings of it now.

And we should all be afraid of what this cornered rat is likely to do.

1. I knew he was evil back in 1990...

and that was before I was political. That fucker repulsed me. I simply can't imagine what enlightened people had been going through for years before my ass finally woke up. I'm talking about those wonderful people who had been fighting since the 1960's, and probably earlier than that. They have my deepest and most profound respect. I woke up sometime in 1999, and it has been hell.

3. He's likely to have a heart attack

Can't imagine all this hate hasn't shrunk that tiny muscle to smithereens.

4. Bingo. Except for that heart attack should be in quotes.

As in, he's had a "heart attack."

Translation: he's faked his death and moved in with Ken Lay in the Caymans.

5. His biggest crime is his lack of style.

An evil billionaire should have some panache in my opinion. He is so utterly dull that he has forever tarnished the mystique of the evil billionaire for me. Can't look at Bond in the same way ever again.

6. Cheney's achilles heel is that he want's to have the last word

He is so narcissistic and arrogant that he will continue to film evidence for the prosecution. Have at it...Dick!!

10. Billionaire? Cheney? LOL...you give him waaay too much credit.

He's no billionaire. Angry, hateful and facing historic disgrace absolutely, but his net worth is no where near 9 zeros.
