New York Sun: Cheney ‘Sees An Opening’ And Wants To Run For President
New York Sun: Cheney ‘Sees An Opening’ And Wants To Run For President
In April, the New York Sun published an editorial entitled “Cheney’s Chance,” encouraging the Vice President to jump into the presidential race. The Sun argued that having a “defender on the campaign trail” would boost Bush’s approval ratings.
In a review of Stephen Hayes’ new biography of Cheney, Ira Stoll — the editor of the Sun — recycles his plea. Stoll writes that he believes the Hayes book is part of an effort by Cheney to drum up support for a potential campaign run:
The book quotes Senator McCain as saying, “Dick doesn’t like campaigning.” Nothing in the Hayes book suggests that Mr. Cheney is about to do it — except for that the vice president spent nearly 30 hours cooperating with the author and apparently gave the okay for many of his friends and colleagues to grant similar access. The Richard Cheney described in this book isn’t vain enough to do that simply for his reputation in history. My own guess — okay, hope — is that Mr. Cheney has taken a look at the Republican presidential field and sees an opening. If Iowa and New Hampshire Republicans start receiving copies of “Cheney” in their mailboxes, Mr. Cheney’s popularity may yet begin to climb.
Stoll acknowledges that his previous editorial calling for Cheney to run was “was widely mocked.” Apparently, once wasn’t enough.

God I hope so. Talk about a sure thing for the dems!
July 24th, 2007 at 10:09 pmI’d love to see the Dick, Cheney, on the campaign trail. I’d even pay money for it just to see the rotten fruit being thrown in his face.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:10 pmDick doesn’t need to be president in order to do that job now, does he? Why put up with the limelight when you can have it all in secret?
July 24th, 2007 at 10:10 pmoh my dear science.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:11 pmYou libs are so behind on current events.
When Bush went under the knife to have his liber…er…his polyps removed, Cheney orchestrated a coup and replaced Bush with a double, a clone grown in Israel and controlled by a handheld device.
Jay Randal told me, so it must be true.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:13 pmIt would certainly make the other Republic contenders look less insane.

July 24th, 2007 at 10:14 pmWrong, Dick is joining back up with Halliburton so he can start taking food out of the mouths of children and stealing from the poor.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:14 pmWhy run? All he has to do is seize power after the “terrorists” assassinate Mr. Bush. The paperwork is already in place.

Understandable why the Dickster has to run, he can ill afford to lose control of all the secrets he’s got in his underground lair. Once reality sinks in that he has 0 chance of becoming #44, he’s going to have to start seriously running…….looking for new digs in a country without extradition treaties with the US.

July 24th, 2007 at 10:16 pmThe Democratic candidates won’t need to make the “Luke/Darth analogies”, the public will do it for them.
This is too hilarious.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:16 pmKudos to the VP for driving what dolts like Edwards and Gore expect ALL of us to use as daily transportation.
Leaves more jet fuel for them, you see, because its hard to go on a Poverty Tour© when jet fuel is being used up by the serfs.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:16 pmOh yes, please run. And win the endorsement. Anyone who backs him won’t sniff a seat for at least 4 terms. Do it. As always, Mr. P, you only hurt your cause with this moronic trumpeting. There is no viable R candidate at the moment, and Cheney only further marginalizes an already untenable and corrupt platform.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:17 pmThe left is in full desperation mode. First New Republic is exposed for a phoney story bashing our troops who the left says they support. The surge is succeeding beyond all expectations…so what do the moonbats do?
Take a toke and claim Cheney is going to run for President. Sorry, take another toke because Fred Thompson is going to beat Hillary by Reagan/Mondale type numbers.

July 24th, 2007 at 10:19 pmI think Cheney could win, all he has to do is visit NASA and wear one of those little teletubby suits like Kerry did and the election will be his for the taking. It worked for Kerry, it can work again!

July 24th, 2007 at 10:21 pmCheney can’t run. He’s got bum knees from s*cking off the Saudis for a couple of decades.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:21 pmWell said, John. War-hero Cheney has no problem expending servicemen as a commodity to further his atavistic ideology as long as he (and his money) are secure.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:22 pmPredictably, mainstream media discussion of Stephen Hayes’ new biography of Vice President Dick Cheney has focused on his “unprecedented access” and salacious details. Unfortunately, little attention has been paid to Hayes himself.

July 24th, 2007 at 10:24 pmHey frank, you have a link for that Republic thingie you were talking about? I had no idea and want to know more. Thanks man.
And youre right about this little article, the dems have yet another tidbit to rile up the already riled kook base. Its nothing yet there are libs from here to Denmark swooning at the thought.
We need to stay hush-hush on Thompson though, because the MSM might run another hard-hitting op-ed about his trophy wife (cue the scary music).
July 24th, 2007 at 10:24 pmHa ha. The only reason Thompson has relatively high numbers is because he hasn’t opened his mouth yet. By all accounts, the man is lazy and none too bright.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:25 pmYou’ll see.
CHENEY 2008!!!
July 24th, 2007 at 10:26 pmThis makes my theory seem more probable. Cheney must have had a heart transplant at some point. He is so secretive, that when he was out of the spotlight for a month or so, he was getting a new ticker. He feels invincible.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:27 pmThat’s actually funnier than the article. How delusional these people can be!
Nah, he scares you and you know it. Giuliani scares you even more.
Not that it matters, Hillary will win the nomination and even democrats dont like her, she will win the base goofs who would vote for a corpse before voting republican but thats about it. Game over.

Brought to you by the intelligentsia at the DU. You will see yourself in the first debates and the dems have to start explaining their windsock votes on the war. He will clean your clock so thoroughly it wont start ticking again for years.
Game over before it even started.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:30 pm“If the 2008 election for president were being held today, would you probably vote for the Republican candidate or would you probably vote for the Democratic candidate?”
Rep = 32%
Dem = 47 %
15 point lead is a lot to catch up.

WTF, CALL AND EXTERMINATOR TO GET THAT THE HELL OUTTA HERE.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:31 pmI thought Dick Cheney was already running…from subpoenaes, from accountability, from getting locked up, from reality, from sanity, from honesty, from integrity. That poor fellow must be plumb tuckered out from all the running he’s been doing.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:31 pmMuch obliged frank.

Another prescient republican claim. We heard a lot of those last October…
July 24th, 2007 at 10:33 pm15 point lead is a lot to catch up.
First, cite the poll source please.
Second, you do realize the date, even the dems are tired of campaigning.
Third, the softballs the dems are being handed in the debates will change when there are dems AND repubs in the same room; easy for all or hard for all and then there will be some uncomfortable dems.
Fourth, your own caucus had Kerry almost last when Iowa came around, then he vaulted up to the lead. Points mean nothing this early in the game.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:35 pmI would really love to see Dick run, run Dick run. The Democrats could dig up Nixon, and nominate him and they’d still win.

July 24th, 2007 at 10:41 pmDear Trolls:
You have no candidate.
Mitt Romney? Mormon. Won ‘t play with southern Christians who believe that they have a monopoly on faith. Once the media (if they choose to) get a hold of the tenets of Mormonism, he’s toast. Hopefully he’s got surplus canning supplies from his wedding to sustain himself when he retreats to his bunker.
McCain? Marginalizes himself daily. Once a man of integrity, showed his true colors in turtling to attacks by the corporate Bush machine during the Republican primary.
Giuliani? Won’t appeal to the base. Far too moderate for the crazies. And no, he doesn’t scare us. He can’t win, and if he does, give me a NY R over a series of tubes/I-don’t-come-from-no-monkey regressed quasi-conservative any day.
Thompson? An actor with no charm? Who’s his VP? Costner?
Cheney? Give Rush his pills back.
You lost already and it hasn’t even started. Your only chance is to distance yourself from B/C (how fitting). In doing so, your platform is gone.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:41 pmIf a PR person is involved, you are probably dealing with the OPPOSITE of what they are saying.
Well of course this guy is to be suspected, he is just a baby-killing soldier who dreams of raping Iraqi kids.
Its simple really, when faced with the truth just invent a conspiracy and hate everyone, especially the soldiers. Unless of course you want to show how patriotic you are, then you have to pretend you love the troops.

Apologize to Spudge_Boy now.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:46 pmWe just had 8 yrs of Death Cheney as a stealth President…any more and the US will be gone for good and we will have morphed totally into a corporate facist state ….but maybe the unhecked global warming will do us all in sooner than that even.
It is not going to be Cheney…though….it will be Newt who steps in at the last minute…but he too will be doomed to failure.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:47 pmCheney needs a prison term and not a term as US President.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:49 pmReagan was written-off in the same manner, “he is just some actor guy, not a real life caring liberal politician like our guy”.
You do realize Thompson was also a senator, do you not? He is going to energize the base and get us back on track and away from the shatheads like McCain.
Anyway, it still doesnt matter. Hillary will be your nominee and will immediately drive away the moderates with her shrillness and creepy talk of “taking” things from corporations. The remaining dems who havent followed the kooks over the edge of insanity arent exactly enamored with her either.
Meanwhile, Hillary’s war support will erode the kook base and she will get demolished in the debates over her flip-flopping.
Game over. You know it, I know, we all know it!
Yes!
July 24th, 2007 at 10:50 pmSorry to say but phi is correct!
Hillary or Obama could win the popular vote, but not the 270 electoral votes that matter, because of the winner take all method used in 48 of the states.
Until enough states to break 270 electoral vote barrier join Maryland and pass the http://www.nationalpopularvote.com , a non-white, non-male, non-southern Democrat will never be president!
July 24th, 2007 at 10:53 pmOur you guys could just rig the election again.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:54 pm“Reagan was written-off in the same manner, ‘he is just some actor guy, not a real life caring liberal politician like our guy’.”
And then he made a deal with Iranian terrorists. He began sending them weapons just months after taking office, while lying to the American people about it. Not really a good example - unless you’re predicting a future republican president will do the same thing to win.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:54 pmHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You dumb jerkoffs do realize I was doing a parody of the lib moron who claimed the Redstate article was just a PR piece by an army flak?

Anytime anywhere you paper tiger fool.
July 24th, 2007 at 10:54 pmIt could definitely happen.
First of all, Darth Cheney bumps off GWB but arranges it so that Iran takes the blame. The new presidente declares a national emergency and martial law to deal with the monsters who killed our beloved President. The White House bunkers down, elections are suspended indefinitely, and the federal government suddenly starts investing billions of dollars into research into androids. Darth has his giant brain downloaded into an android and declares himself Presidente for Life. And, since the lifespan of an android is measured in centuries, that’s a realllly long time.
Oh, and the trolls here at TP all think this is a really great plan. “Please, Darth Cheney,” they sob, “let us bury our noses in the greasy folds of your arse!”

July 24th, 2007 at 10:59 pmBush’s foreign policy is predicated on where the Middle East’s dwindling oil supply is located and whether or not an oil-rich country is a threat to Israel. Only a complete dunce would bother to disagree with that. Read this -
“They [the Bush cabal] have been conspiring, working, maneuvering and lying since at least 1989 during the George H W Bush Administration. While things were heating up around Iraq, Kuwait theft of Iraq oil, and leading up to Desert Shield, then Desert Storm, the GHWB Administration implemented another “shield” in the form of Operation Steppe Shield. It was targeted at Kazakhstan and was named for the vast oil and gas reserves in the Kazakh Steppe region of Kazakhstan….That is where Dick Cheney got himself appointed to the Kazakhstan Oil Advisory Board and later…the book titled The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives by Zbigniew Brzezinski came out in 1997…when the 20 Year War Plan was [first] conceived and targeted…the Caspian Basin, and the CIA renditions started.”

The co-conspirators never expected to find themselves in this position.
WMD were going to be planted in Iraq, but Plame’s Brewster Jennings uncovered the plan, and their essential justification for the invasion of Iraq was lost.
They never shifted to a strategy that included VICTORY in Iraq. They had always intended to instigate the Civil War - but their original plan always relied on the justification of WMD.
Now they are stuck - implementing a plan that did not account for the absence of a justified pretext for the war.
Now their backs are to the wall, and they need to bomb Iran soon in order to create yet another distraction.
They are now desperate for a Pretext - the result of which will surely include investigations, arrests, and hanging for treason - if not war crimes trials at the Hague.
WILD CORNERED ANIMALS will do ANYTHING to protect their own skins.
Cheney is plotting a False Flag Terror Attack on US Soil to justify the declaration of Martial Law and the bombing of Iran.

Hysterical. The Republics have taken absolutely no responsibility for screwing up the war on terra, screwing up the occupation of Iraq, screwing up Katrina, turning a huge surplus into an equally huge deficit, and . . . well the list just goes on and on. And they’ve NEVER taken any responsibility for their colossal clusterf&ck.
The irony is just too divine.

July 24th, 2007 at 11:05 pmUS Troops in Iraq = Fish
“Green Zone” = Barrel
Arrest Dick Cheney right now to prevent the slaughter of the US Military.
Cheney is busily preparing the next False Flag Attack against the United States (using Jumbo Jets as missiles, flown into nuclear reactor containment vessels at power plants in 3 different US cities) and has ALREADY TOLD US that when the next attack come on US soil, he will bomb IRAN, with or without proof of their involvement.
On July 20th, the US Government propaganda for this pending attack on Iran began in earnest, when Pentagon spokespersons planted stories in the US media that claimed Hezbollah Sleeper Cells were active in the United States, and may be planning attacks against the US Homeland in retaliation for the US backing of Israel.
The Bin Laden Bogeyman has served his purpose and a new one is being invented before your eyes. The term “Hizbollah Sleeper Cells” has just replaced all prior fear mongering labels used by your own government, to instill fear in you, and condition you to respond reflexively to support the bombing of Iran when Cheney launches the next Terror Attack by the Government of America, AGAINST AMERICA.

ARREST DICK CHENEY
July 24th, 2007 at 11:05 pmIn late 1982, Edward P. Boland, a Democratic representative, introduced the first in a series of “Boland amendments,†which limited the Reagan Administration’s ability to support the Contras, who were working to overthrow Nicaragua’s left-wing Sandinista government. The Boland restrictions led White House officials to orchestrate illegal fund-raising activities for the Contras, including the sale of American weapons, via Israel, to Iran. The result was the Iran-Contra scandal of the mid-eighties. Cheney’s story, according to the source, was his way of saying that, whatever a Democratic Congress might do next year to limit the President’s authority, the Administration would find a way to work around it. (In response to a request for comment, the Vice-President’s office said that it had no record of the discussion.)
In interviews, current and former Administration officials returned to one question: whether Cheney would be as influential in the last two years of George W. Bush’s Presidency as he was in its first six. Cheney is emphatic about Iraq. In late October, he told Time, “I know what the President thinks,†about Iraq. “I know what I think. And we’re not looking for an exit strategy. We’re looking for victory.†He is equally clear that the Administration would, if necessary, use force against Iran. “The United States is keeping all options on the table in addressing the irresponsible conduct of the regime,†he told an Israeli lobbying group early this year. “And we join other nations in sending that regime a clear message: we will not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.â€
The Old Guard wants to isolate Cheney and give their girl, Condoleezza Riceâ€â€”the Secretary of State—“a chance to perform.†The combination of Scowcroft, Baker, and the senior Bush working together is, the general added, “tough enough to take on Cheney. One guy can’t do it.â€
But many in the White House and the Pentagon insist that getting tough with Iran is the only way to salvage Iraq. “It’s a classic case of ‘failure forward,’†a Pentagon consultant said. “They believe that by tipping over Iran they would recover their losses in Iraq—like doubling your bet.
http://www.newyorker.com/ fact/ content/ articles/ 061127fa_fact?page=1
This “bet†is being made with YOUR money, and your son’s/daughter’s lives – AGAINST YOUR WILL.
The C.I.A. found no conclusive evidence, as yet, of a secret Iranian nuclear-weapons program running parallel to the civilian operations that Iran has declared to the International Atomic Energy Agency.
STOP CHENEY.

July 24th, 2007 at 11:18 pmWas it Cheney who ordered Chertoff to kill the Ptech Investigation??? And Remember “Operation Greenquest?†That investigation was killed too!
http://rigorousintuition.blogspot.com/ 2005/ 01/ michael-chertoff-and-sabotage-of-ptech.html
A tipster was Indira Singh, who has said she recognizes the separate command and control communications system Mike Ruppert describes Dick Cheney to have been running on September 11th as having “the exact same functionality I was looking for (Ptech).”
The Ptech case turned into an ugly dispute last year when company whistleblowers told Greenquest agents about their own suspicions about the firm’s owners. Sources close to the case say those same whistleblowers had first approached FBI agents, but the bureau apparently did little or nothing in response. With backing from the National Security Council, Greenquest agents then mounted a full-scale investigation that culminated in a raid on the company’s office last December. After getting wind of the Greenquest probe, the FBI stepped in and unsuccessfully tried to take control of the case.
Whatever the truth, there is no dispute that the case has so far produced no charges and indictments against Al-Qadi or anyone else connected with Ptech.
What role did Dick Cheney play in killing the investigation into Al-Qadi?
Now, how does Chertoff figure in the Ptech story? It goes back to the turf war of two years ago over Operation Greenquest, “the high-profile federal task force set up to target the financiers of Al Qaeda and other international terrorist groups.”
*
July 24th, 2007 at 11:19 pmClearly ptech represent some nexus between the government and terrorism that must not be revealed, and Chertoff is just the man to cover it up.
