Still a class act all the way, Dick Cheney wipes his ass with Dr. Sanjay Gupta on 60 Minutes

The SURLY bits have been edited out of this spcific clip...you will need to hunt down the full interview to see Evil Dick snarl "Doctor SAN-jay GOOOOOOOOOOP-ta" near the end. He gets progressively agitated at Gupta's questions.

2. That's what I've been asking myself...

...but he has a new book, and as they said at the start of the 60 Minutes piece, he is a "polarizing figure." That equals ratings.

4. He's a lying sack of crap. He flat out lied last night to Dr. Gupta.

When Gupta was challenging him for being on the ticket with his extreme heart condition that could cause repercussions with mental health, Cheney lied that he had to be talked into the job. Don't we all remember that Dick Cheney headed up the VP selection committee and went to Bubba Dubya to announce that HE himself was the best choice. Still evil after all these years.

....he snuck up to Montana to register and change is residence, since he'd been living in Houston for years leading up to that weekend. According to the Constitution the President and VP cannot be from the same state. But they shouldn't have worried, after all, according to bush, the Constitution is "just a goddam piece of paper"!

16. Actually, they can be, but they can not get the electoral votes from that state.

And there won't likely ever be a POTUS and VP both from Texas.

.....somewhere in the interview he says he's waiting for a heart to transplant. Shouldn't he have said "implant", since there's nothing to replace?

9. His Repub Tobacco friends ate away his heart

All his tobacco came from his right wing cigarette friends. 60 minutes actually showed Cheneys removed heart sitting in a dish.

I've checked the box on my driver's license as an organ donor. But can I specify certain people who should never, under any circumstances, get my organs?
