It wasn't Cheney's vote that passed the cuts in the needed programs...

It was the other 50 Senators that voted with him. They are the ones we need to put on the list for a block of coal this Christmas. That would be my wish. That people would awaken and throw each and every one of the bastards out of the Senate and then pass a law that they could not work as a lobbyist for 10 years after leaving government...

1. It was Cheney too.

They couldn't have done it without him.

2. They could have done it without him.

But they were too cowardly to cast the deciding vote. They only wanted to do it as a group.

3. Yes, but it's a given that Cheney will vote for everything evil

Those that put him in the position to break the tie need to be held accountable. They need to get reelected - Cheney doesn't.
