EEWWW...Dick Cheney: 'I worship the ground Paul Ryan walks on'
Former Vice President Dick Cheney doesn’t want Paul Ryan to run for president — he likes the House Budget chairman too much.

“I worship the ground the Paul Ryan walks on,” Cheney said Wednesday during a rare public appearance, the Houston Chronicle reported. “I hope he doesn’t run for president because that would ruin a good man who has a lot of work to do.


Support for Ryan’s budget plan, which includes an overhaul of Medicare, has become an early litmus test for the GOP presidential field. The plan was also a definitive issue in the special election in New York on Tuesday, where Democrat Kathy Hochul won one of the most Republican-friendly congressional seats in the country. Democrats have heralded that victory as a sign that Americans oppose Ryan’s plan.

But as the field of potential contenders for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination has narrowed, some members of the GOP have begun to call for him to run. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) said earlier this week that he would welcome a White House run, saying of his colleague, “What Paul Ryan is about is real leadership.”

1. Maybe Ryan shouldn't go hunting with Cheney
since Big Dick tends to shoot his friends in the face and then expect them to apologize.

3. Imagine the balls that it takes...
To shoot a guy in the fucking face, and then have that guy "My bad, I got in the way of your shot."

Imagine Paul Ryan as president... :scared: :nuke:

2. Hypocrite - Cheney never talked about the debt or deficits
He wanted to spend, spend, spend on wars to enrich himself and his cronies.

He really is Evil.

5. Cheney created Ryan....
sunk his fangs into his scrawny neck and.... viola :) (sorry, family spelling joke--couldn't resist). Pale skin, classic undead haircut... Wonder if we could coax him out into the sunlight.
