That’s an understatement

Hate him, like him, it’s irrelevant. He did an excellent job educating and training Liz.

Why is that the one thing from his life you find relevant?

the fact this guy made it to 84 is a crime in itself.

One of the key architects of the legal authorities that Trump is exploiting.

I have always found that his name was fitting…

I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.

War criminal that was not convicted because he was fucking american. Nevertheless, he is war criminal that USA will give him “honours”. I gues killing children is honourable thing to do in USA.

When Patrick Leahy accused the former Halliburton CEO of rigging gigantic no-bid contracts for the company in Iraq, Cheney responded, “Fuck yourself.” He later called the exchange “the best thing I ever did.”
