When Dick Cheney's ticker finally gives out....

[pipi_k]

71. This would be

my dilemma as well.

Considering this whole topic from a more personal POV, I have a BIL who is in poor health.

This man, back in the 80s, and perhaps before that, ruined the lives of lots of people. He is a convicted child molester.

One of those little girls was my daughter.

I know that when he dies, I will have to make an appearance, at the wake at least, for the sake of my sister and my two nieces (he has four other daughters and a son from a previous marriage).

I will have to say "I'm so sorry for your loss", all the while wanting to do a goddamned fist pump and yell, "YEAH, you dirty pedophile pig bastard, I hope you rot in HELL!!!"

I know I probably shouldn't grave dance, even in private, but I also know that I'm only human, and I probably will. In private.

The only thing I'll really be sorry for is that my younger brother (same generation as my own two kids) died in 2011 and will not be here to gravedance along with us. He'll never know that the fucker who molested our little sister (as well as my daughter) no longer walks the earth.

So. Will I gravedance when Cheney's ticket gets cashed in? I dunno. But I certainly won't shed any tears for that asshole.

Who probably also has people who love/loved him, but I...and we here at DU...won't be among them.
