Cheney: McCain ‘Ran Over To Me And Apologized’ For Saying ‘Nasty Things’ About Me
Cheney: McCain ‘Ran Over To Me And Apologized’ For Saying ‘Nasty Things’ About Me
In July 2004, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) called Vice President Cheney “one of the most capable, experienced, intelligent and steady vice presidents this country has ever had.” But last month, McCain flip-flopped, attacking Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld for their mismanagement of the war in Iraq:
The president listened too much to the Vice President. … Of course, the president bears the ultimate responsibility, but he was very badly served by both the Vice President and, most of all, the Secretary of Defense.
But today in an interview with ABC’s Good Morning America, Cheney said that McCain’s criticisms were nothing more than empty rhetoric: “John said some nasty things about me the other day and then next time he saw me ran over to me and apologized.” Watch it:
Commenting on McCain’s propensity to change his mind, Cheney added, “Maybe he’ll apologize to Rumsfeld.”
Transcript:
HOST: Republican presidential candidate John McCain recently lashed out at Cheney and his friend, former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. Today, Cheney fired back.
HOST: You probably heard John McCain again come out and say that, your friend, Donald Rumsfeld, is perhaps the worst Secretary of Defense ever. What do you make of that?
CHENEY: I just fundamentally disagree with John. John said some nasty things about me the other day and then next time he saw me ran over to me and apologized. Maybe he’ll apologize to Rumsfeld.

February 21st, 2007 at 10:05 amA new blade of grass has grown in my garden next to the other one .
Apparently Cheney has McCain trashing duty today — insulating the White House, as usual.
What childish idiocy. I just flashed back on my junior high years.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:08 amWhat kind of world do they live in if true? What value does an apology have when these guys are so fake?
February 21st, 2007 at 10:09 amI’d like to apologize to Cheney, also:
Mr. Cheney, I am sorry that you are an underhanded, power-hungry, war mongering and profiteering, elitist, hypocritical, immoral son of a witch.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:12 amIn the safety of a far off land cheney foams at the mouth.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:12 amHa, ha, ha. McCain thinks that Bush and Cheney would ever do anything to help him. What a rube. McCain is the Charlie Brown of the Republican Party.
Watch Deadeye Dick Cheney pull the ball away from him again.

February 21st, 2007 at 10:17 amJust so you know, I am ashamed that the front-running candidate for the GOP nomination is from Arizona.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:19 amthe duality of horror and hilarity is just too much for me to grasp…
February 21st, 2007 at 10:21 amNew thread TP! Two pictures of “Dick” this morning are making me lose my breakfast!
February 21st, 2007 at 10:27 amMcCain only gets in more trouble when he panders to the liberal MSM.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:28 amMcCain hasn’t found anyone who will fund his campaign so he’s doing a lot of attacking then early withdrawls. Cheney knows it is just politics where you lie to and mislead everyone for personal gain.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:29 amMy apologies in advance, Zooey, but I can’t resist:

Whazzamatta? Don’t like Dick?
McCain is in his last throes.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:32 amI’m surprised at how everyone here is taking Cheney at his word. Like this guy is so trustworthy…
February 21st, 2007 at 10:39 am#12 – “I am ashamed that the front-running candidate for the GOP nomination is from Arizona.” Comment by CONservative — February 21, 2007 @ 10:19 am
From the news I’ve read, he’s not quite as “front-running” as appears.
All his flip-flops are coming home to roost, and fewer people are supporting him.
I guess when you get trashed in 2000 and then turn around and suck-up to the people who trashed you, it tends to tarnish your image.
Don’t forget, we can use the 2000 talking point that then-Gov. Bush used: Sen. McCain was mentally damaged as a POW! Do you want someone like that leading our country? Also, did you hear about his black baby?
If then-Gov. Bush could say it, we can too!
February 21st, 2007 at 10:42 amWhazzamatta? Don’t like Dick?
Comment by DRxJ
As long as you apologized in advance….
Dick is fine, DRxJ, but some “Dick” makes me want to bite the head off a puppy. I find that less than attractive. Heh.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:42 amCheney: “McCain ‘Ran Over To Me And Apologized’ For Saying ‘Nasty Things’ About Me…”
“…because i told him i was going to shoot him in the face” is the rest of that sentence. mccain’s “zero-dignity express” rolls on.
February 21st, 2007 at 10:44 amgeez…don’t these windbags have anything better to do than air dirty laundry?

Oil states plan weapons buying binge
By Jim Krane, Associated Press Writer, February 16, 2007
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates –Deep fears about the war in Iraq and growing tension between the United States and Iran are driving the wealthy oil states of the Persian Gulf to go on shopping sprees for helicopters, ships and tanks, officials say.
Some 900 weapons makers and security firms from around the world, including the U.S. and Russia, will compete for those military buys at the IDEX military show that opens Sunday in Abu Dhabi. At stake are contracts predicted to soar past the $2 billion signed at the last such show two years ago.
“The shopping lists are directly correlated to the threat perception,” said military analyst Mustafa Alani of the Dubai-based Gulf Research Center.
“For the past 15 years, these countries didn’t invest a lot in rearming.”
But now they’re rushing to upgrade.
The biggest fear in the region is that Iraq will collapse into civil war and its violence will spill into nearby Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, Alani said.

Has Cheney ever apologized to Patrick Leahy for saying “nasty things”?
February 21st, 2007 at 10:59 amThis makes me believe that the Neo-Cons have found another puppet in John McCain.
They completely sabotaged his chances at being president 7 years ago in South Carolina by starting a whisper campaign stating he was “sodomized” while in a POW camp in Vietnam.
Now he’s getting feeding the Evangelicals lies about his character and beliefs, flip-flopping on every issue like I’ve never seen before in a candidate.
Is this the same guy or did Cheney and Karl Rove kill McCain and replace him with a subservient robot?
February 21st, 2007 at 11:21 amCheney: “McCain ‘Ran Over To Me And Apologized’ …
If only that read ‘ran over me’ instead. Laura, where the Hell are you when we need you?
Cheeks McFlipFlop & Shooter should go fly fishing together. Oh wait, that’s what Mark Foley was doing.
February 21st, 2007 at 11:23 amWhen will Darth Cheney apologize:
to this country and the rest of the world for his “pretend” war on Iraq for profit and NeoCon benefits?
for his outing of a CIA agent?
for creating a sockpuppet out of Dubya?
for hating America?
for being a total scumbag?

Of all the people with Cheney’s ass-stink on their faces, McCain has the most detectable amount of Cheney ass-stink on his face. I think McCain has a piece of corn on his nose too.

A slug can run?
February 21st, 2007 at 1:34 pmAfter which McCain was heard saying
Ahhh, the taste of bootblack in the morning!
February 21st, 2007 at 3:36 pmIn the past, present, and future, I have said, and will continue to say nasty things about Cheney. NO apologies will be forthcoming. :D
February 21st, 2007 at 6:21 pmI see that Torticola Cheney is getting SENILE and DELUSIONAL in his DOTAGE…or is that pasty-faced flip-flopper McPAIN the SENILE and DELUSIONAL one? NAH! THEY BOTH ARE! When McPAIN saw Torticola and Torticola saw McPAIN, they BOTH IMAGINED the other running towards each other and planting a wet, sloppy kiss on the other’s BEHIND…and thereby hangs the tale of two TWITTYS!!!!! IN TRUTH,
February 21st, 2007 at 6:26 pmNEITHER APOLOGIZED AND Torticola Cheney decided to use his TWISTED LIE to try and create a rosy picture of ass-kissing camaraderie THAT HAS NO BASIS IN FACT! LIES, LIES, MORE DAMNED LIES FROM Mr. TwistedCrookMouth Torticola Cheney!!!!!

February 21st, 2007 at 7:17 pmTwo things I noticed: Isn’t it wierd the way McCain is holding arm? He looks like a robot. He can’t even hold his posture authentically.
Anyone notice the sneer on the interviewers face as he asked the the McCain question to Cheney? He face says it all. Another journalistic insider for the Neo-cons.
Talk to your family people. These monsters will try and turn us against one another before anyone trys to take them down.
February 22nd, 2007 at 12:39 pmI hate Cheney, but McCain does have a habit of trashing somebody and saying sorry the next day. He used to do it to Clinton all the time.
