He was born with a handicap
He was not overly All American style good looking(blue eyed blonde or like TimMcCoward was)

and probably was bullied as a child

and the constant taunts might just have caused him to turn bad, like it did to Karl Rove
who also was overweight and all

As a liberal, I would like to know

because I would love the next Cheney to be stopped from becoming the big Dick he became.

Because hey liberals-we do care and that is what sets us apart from the republicantealibertarians who form mob burn it down groups.

Bullying is a deadly thing.

Now, we may never know, and it has NOTHING to do with his later politics.
We don't have to agree on political issues to wonder

what turned him onto the dark side of life?

(we know for instance 41 had his father who was proven to make millions on WW2, but for all reports, Cheney's parents, were dirt poor(poorer than John (Let me whine about my terrible upbringing) Edwards and Cheney loved his parents so it didn't come from them.

What then?

I only want to piss on his grave. hobbit709 Jan 2013 #1
