Cheney ‘looks forward to helping’ McCain.
“Conservatives needed to hear an endorsement of Senator McCain from their standard-bearer, Vice President Dick Cheney,” writes Politico’s Mike Allen. And Cheney delivered last night in a speech in Georgia when he urged the crowd to support McCain:
We won’t mind at all if you set another record this November — when you help John McCain become the next President of the United States.
Cheney added that he and President Bush “look forward to helping” McCain and other conservatives in the election. Applause for Cheney’s speech “started slowly and stretched to get into full gear.”

War Criminals Bush & Cheney are the kiss of death to McSame’s campaign.
March 11th, 2008 at 9:58 amCome ahead on Dickhead! Help McJowls…….right into an early politcal grave.
Remember, dick Cheney before he dicks you.
Go Cheney yourself!
March 11th, 2008 at 9:59 amGreat, that’ll ensure him the over 70 vote.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:01 am“Conservatives needed to hear an endorsement of Senator McCain from their standard-bearer, Vice President Dick Cheney
Nice to see your “standard-bearer” is a mean old miserable chickenshit coward …………….
March 11th, 2008 at 10:01 amAnother albatross around McCain’s neck. McCain can go for the trifecta if he gets an endorsement from Rumsfeld — particularly on his Iraq position.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:03 amApplause for Cheney’s speech “started slowly and stretched to get into full gear.â€
That’s because those that weren’t clapping at the start were very nervous as Darth Cheney looked around the room to see who was not clapping.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:05 amThis is the last few lines in the article:
While he promised that he and Bush would be available to campain for Republicans this year, although, “with an economy to strengthen and a war to fight,†their time was limited. No one in the crowd seemed visibly disappointed.
Even the republican stronghold of Georgia is ready for their exit.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:06 amdick is also going to the country that attacked us on 9-11 to help them rape americans that much more!
March 11th, 2008 at 10:08 ami.e.-clap enthusiastically, or be rendered into the gulag.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:09 amI hear he might take him hunting…sorry, couldn’t resist!
March 11th, 2008 at 10:10 amApplause for Cheney’s speech “started slowly and stretched to get into full gear.â€
After Dickhead’s shotgun was brought out ………………….
March 11th, 2008 at 10:11 amCheney needs McCain desparately…the statute of limitations on alot of crimes him and his cronies committed likely expires before 2012..
March 11th, 2008 at 10:13 amMy sense is that McCain will be destroyed in the November election. I can’t believe the record turnouts at the primaries are all about excitement over the prospect of putting a cranky old white guy in the White House who has pretty much communicated his intentions to propagate the Bush agenda.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:24 amMcCain will be a shoe-in with Cheney’s ‘Midas’ touch? I wonder if McCain will go hunting caged animals with Cheney?
March 11th, 2008 at 10:24 amCheney added that he and President Bush “look forward to helping†McCain and other conservatives in the election.
I look forward to Darth, Dumbya and the rest of the Keystone Kops “helping” McBush and other “conservatives” too — helping them get their a$$es kicked in November, that is…

March 11th, 2008 at 10:25 amWith or without Cheney McCain is going down. And I think if they try to steal another election, well they’ll be pushing their luck.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:32 amCheney is training McWar now how to pull off 9/11 : the sequel. They’re burnin’ the midnight oil nightly in the bunker. Fasten your seatbelts.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:44 amYes Kay, combine this statement with Dick’s latest trip to the Middle East and you’ve got a recipe for the 9/11 redux.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:47 amIn years to come (hopefully not many), there is a special place in Hell for DICK Cheney.
He is truly evil incarnate.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:50 amCheney ‘looks forward to helping’ McCain.
He’s gonna’ leave McUseless his artificial heart ?
March 11th, 2008 at 10:55 amApplause for Cheney’s speech “started slowly and stretched to get into full gear.â€
…..As large video screens arrayed behind Cheney lit up with slow camera pans around the room, occasionally zooming in on less than enthusiastic members of the audience…..subtitles with the persons name, address and cellphone number quickly faded in…..
March 11th, 2008 at 11:03 amApplause for Cheney’s speech “started slowly and stretched to get into full gear.â€
Maybe Bob Dole could hook them with some Viagra.
March 11th, 2008 at 11:19 ami look forward to that, too – Dick.

McInsane gets Rove on board, it’ll be the Grand Slam!
March 11th, 2008 at 11:52 amSo, what, all 4 or 5 people ended up applauding?
March 11th, 2008 at 11:53 amYea, Five Deferments Dick is going to help McSame lose the election or did he mean that he was going to help steal another election?

March 11th, 2008 at 11:57 amdoesn’t Cheney have a pacemaker?
March 11th, 2008 at 12:13 pmHelp him out by shooting him in the face, Dick. It could only help.
March 11th, 2008 at 12:19 pmImmediately after the speech, he was on the phone with Diebold…
March 11th, 2008 at 12:20 pmdoesn’t Cheney have a pacemaker?
Comment by Uncle Ho
Yes, he does.
March 11th, 2008 at 12:20 pmPerhaps that’s why the applause was slow to build.
They didn’t want to startle him.
Help each other into the grave.
March 11th, 2008 at 12:23 pmQuick!!! Someone get Cheney near a mircrowave!
March 11th, 2008 at 12:26 pmMcCain would just be another Cheney toadie, just like Dubya. That’s why he was chosen.
March 11th, 2008 at 12:38 pmApplause for Cheney’s speech “started slowly and stretched to get into full gear.â€
Obviously, the chairs had an electro shock feature that only abated with sustained clapping.
March 11th, 2008 at 1:51 pmThe only thing Cheney is qualified to help John McCain with is lying to and misleading the American people into supporting and paying for a phony war fiasco. Frankly, McCain sounds like he can continue to mishandle that without much help from Cheney.
March 11th, 2008 at 2:40 pmWow, now that`s an endorsement. While DICK is in the middle east selling arms to the Saudi`s who don`t like the Israelis while on a peace keeping mission to Israel. Am I wrong? Darth Vader as a PEACE KEEPER am I crazy or what? Johnny Mclame for President, what a joke, what a contradiction the Republican party is today. This is a said commentary on AMERICA today.
DICK is also their to help get the price of OIL down(up) im sure of it.
March 11th, 2008 at 2:49 pmVote Republica-Kill a Solider!!!!
March 11th, 2008 at 2:57 pmWhile I have a fear that McCain will name Cheney as VP (admittedly, probably not the case): I have the very realistic fear that the same Men in Black who are in the shadows with Shrub are the same folks who are in the shadows for McCain.
March 11th, 2008 at 4:01 pmO God, please help him!! Show your stupid lookin face….please Mr. VP help Mr. McCain…hold his hands and hug him and stuff …k?
Thx
March 11th, 2008 at 4:05 pmOnly way Cheney could help most of the GOP field is to resign now for the sake of the party that will otherwise be going down in infamy with him and Bush.
