From a political party overflowing with sociopaths and creeps, none other than Dick Cheney encapsulates to a greater degree what it is the Republican party has become. The blood of 4500 dead Americans and tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis is on his hands. Lies and deception are his tools of trade.
Iraq was Dick Cheney’s war. Yet, the fabricated Benghazi ‘scandal’ is the worst incident he can recall.
War criminal and scumbag. Frankly.

This should come as no surprise to anyone who knows the ways of Sen. Ted Cruz.
A full 54 percent of Ted Cruz’s statements have been rated “false” or “pants on fire” by PolitiFact. Another 20 percent are only “half true.” That’s 74 percent of Cruz’s statements failing the truth test.
Ted Cruz – just another lying, shameless, gutless sociopath who has found a loving home in the Republican party.

Is lunacy of this type common in other countries or is it exclusively an American phenomena?
Donald Trump, the real estate mogul who is worth $3.1 billion according to Forbes, is suing Bill Maher for $5 million for likening him to a monkey.
Trump called into “Fox & Friends” Monday to say that he’s suing the HBO host for going on Jay Leno’s “Tonight Show” last month and joking that Trump must be “the spawn of his mother having sex with an orangutan.”
Maher was mocking Trump’s offer to give $5 million to the charity of Barack Obama’s choice if the president released his college paperwork. Maher said he would do the same if Trump proved he didn’t descend from an ape.
Trump filed suit in LA on Monday which guarantees that his name remains in the news for another week or so. Mission accomplished. We’ve become accustomed to Trump the publicity hound doing whatever it takes to keep the spotlight on himself. His months-long charade last year where he “contemplated” running in the Republican primary and his birther nonsense were all engineered to keep the Trump name in the news.
And now the clown is suing Maher for a joke the comedian made comparing Trump to an orangutan. Dumb…but that’s how it is with sociopaths like Trump. People like him (Palin, Beck and Limbaugh, to name a few, fit into the same category) are capable of saying or doing just about anything because they are incapable of feeling shame or being embarrassed. They are driven by one or more of the following – money, power, fame and vengeance.
This is what allows a Donald Trump to keep a straight face when he makes comments like this:
“He [Maher] said it with venom. I don’t think it was a joke.”
He doesn’t think it was a joke?
Yeah, that’s right, you ignorant buffoon. Maher was serious. He really believes your mother screwed an orangutan in a fit of drunken passion.
Four years of conservative and Republican lies, smears and Obama Derangement Syndrome are all wonderfully bundled in a mailer sent out by Ralph Reed to his evangelical following. Reed, head of Faith and Freedom Coalition, is one of a number of conservative hatchet men who operate from the hate-filled backrooms of the Christian Right. Here’s the trash he sent out to his followers.
Reed asks if it’s all “pretty scary”? It would be if any of it was true. But it’s not and Reed knows it but he has no qualms in putting forth blatant lies because he knows that the brain-dead morons on his mailing list will believe every filthy lie. It’s all part of a ploy that’s been in play since day one of the Obama presidency. That is, portray Barack Obama as the anti-Christ who is out to take your bible, your guns, your money and your dog. It’s getting old.
There is only one political party that is out to destroy the economy and anything else that lies in its path on its quest to regain political party. And that would be the Republican Party with the help of low-lifes like Ralph Reed. If you ever for a moment thought that President Obama has pretty much wrapped up this election, keep the following in mind.
…the New York Times reported, the Faith and Freedom Coalition hopes to contact some 17 million conservative voters before Election Day. FFC will deploy more than 5,000 volunteers and will distribute 25 million voter guides to members of 117,000 churches nationwide.
And remember that there are a whole bunch of Ralph Reeds out there doing their best to make sure that the Kenyan anti-Christ does not win reelection.
Dick Cheney, in one of his rare moments of honesty, had this to say about John McCain’s selection of Sarah Palin as his VP choice.
I think that was a mistake. Is this person capable of being president of the United States?
I like Governor Palin. I’ve met her. I know her. … Attractive candidate. But based on her background — she’d only been governor for, what, two years — I don’t think she passed that test … of being ready to take over. And I think that was a mistake.
Well aside from the fact that the above observation was obvious four years ago to most people possessing a sound mind, they were spoken by a man whom many would argue was the worse and most corrupt VP the U.S. has ever known. How nice if Cheney would also admit that George W. Bush was not qualified to be President, but don’t hold your breath waiting for Dick to utter those words. It was exactly the fact that Bush was an incompetent, know-nothing moron that allowed Cheney to play the role of puppeteer for those eight, long disastrous years. An incompetent jackass for President suited Cheney well in 2001. Not so much as a VP choice in 2008 when he was no longer in control.
Palin’s problem, of course, was not that she had been governor for a mere two years. It was that she was, and is, an ignoramus. It was this that made her unsuitable for the VP position…or just about any other position I can think of. But you already knew this.
Cheney’s daughter, Liz, threw in her two cents and wins the award for most brazen, biased crapola of the week.
Puke time. And if you need another reason for ignoring just about anything the Cheneys have to say about anything, here are Dick Cheney’s words from September 2008.
…there’s no reason why Sarah Palin can’t be a successful vice president in a McCain administration.
They’re little more than idiotic, parading clowns, the entire bunch of them. Hey Liz, here’s what the rest of us think about your dad.
