what gives liz cheney's opinion a single ounce of weight

[spanone]

she talks in certitudes and purports to speak for the american people.

as far as i can tell she's never been elected to a single office by a single vote.

she suggests we give the peace prize to the MILITARY...

Liz Cheney's Debut As Fox News Sunday Panelist: Obama's Nobel Is 'A Farce'
Liz Cheney made something of a splash in her debut as a Fox News panelist yesterday. After being introduced on Fox News Sunday by Chris Wallace as a "former State Department official, daughter of the former vice president, and first-time panelist," Cheney had an, um, interesting take on President Obama's Nobel Peace Prize.

"The president himself understands he didn't earn this prize," Cheney said. "And I think, therefore, the notion that, as the White House has said, he would go to Oslo to accept the prize would just sort of add to the farce."

Cheney continued:

What he ought to do, frankly, is send the mother of a fallen American solider to accept the prize on behalf of the U.S. military.
That would be a reminder to the Nobel committee, Cheney said, "that each one of them sleeps soundly at night because of the U.S. armed forces, because the U.S. military is the greatest peacekeeping force in the world today."

1. &^$*%($ POS daughter of a war criminal STFU %$#&$(

:argh: :grr: she's every bit as detestable as her POS war criminal father

[jaysunb]

14. Soooo, did you forget anything ?

:rofl: :hi:

[noiretextatique]

35. unfortuntely

i can't say what i really wanted here :hi: :rofl:

[condoleeza]

16. Well, you said what I would have said.

I grew up with people like hers for parents, I rejected it before I reached middle school. What's her excuse for not having a brain?

[mrdmk]

2. Speaking as a day-to-day American,

Liz Cheney can take her U.S.A. Imperialist Ideological Beliefs and stuff it up her Imperial Ass. Who appointed the U.S.A. as the moral police, to further the point, what moral compass does the U.S.A. have after the Bush Jr. Administration. What a stupid bitch! Fuck her...

[tanyev]

3. Daddy's shotgun.

[Ilsa]

4. She hasn't served in the military but she seems to think she's an

expert on military and foreign affairs. Maybe she is the one that ordered the crappy guns that malfunctioned and got some troops killed recently.

[spanone]

5. her job resume is filed under 'nepotism'

Armitage Associates (yes, richard armitage)

Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs

2004 Bush-Cheney re-election campaign

Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of State For Near Eastern Affairs

Iran Syria Policy and Operations Group

2008 Republican presidential campaigns

[Ilsa]

20. Daddy got her all of her big high-paying jobs in which she simply

regurgitated all the neocon talking points and other selfish crap that befits the RNC. Liz Cheney represents the worst kind of American, IMO, one that is rich and looks down on others and didn't lift a finger to earn her jobs or status. I hope she runs for public office so her lack of real qualifications will be exposed.

[girl gone mad]

31. Politician's child..

In and of itself, that should put her just below reality TV star on the social relevance totem poll.

[lunatica]

6. She's out saving her daddy's legacy

Because everyone in that family's career is Dick Cheney. It's all about him all the time. He's the dictator in that family and everyone is there to do his bidding, which is to make him very important.

[Seeking Serenity]

7. No one's opinion is entitled to be given weight or credibility

Everyone has his own opinion about other people's opinions. And opinions are just that, opinions. They are not facts to be cited as definitive.

And opininators, left and right, often claim to speak for "the American people." "The American people want (whatever policy I am advocating). Opposing this (policy, legislation, idea, movie star) means you are opposing the American people."

A pox on all their houses.

[CAG]

8. DADDY!

[mother earth]

9. Nothing. She should be ashamed to even speak one word.

Her husband belongs behind bars. He and his ilk have brought this country to its absolute lowest, both economically and every other way. They are not patriots they are treasonous bums who should be held accountable for treason & all of their crimes.

Shut the hell up, Cheney(s), you are dastardly & evil. We've had enough of your criminal, hateful & evil bias and BS.

[mrdmk]

11. general info: Liz Cheney is Dick Cheney's daughter! n/t

:hi:

[mother earth]

12. Sorry, I didn't even fully read the OP, I am so sick to death

of ANY and ALL Cheneys speaking at all. My fingers just started flying all over the keyboard before absorbing the name, I can't stand a one of them anyhoo. So there!

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

10. Her gorgeous mind.

[rurallib]

13. FUX creates impportant people out of whole cloth

and continues to promote them. All they need is but a scintilla of fame.

[Orsino]

15. Its accord with the views of the owners of the media which televise her.

Too easy.

[Vickers]

17. Another (supposedly) pro-military chickenhawk.

:eyes:

[treestar]

18. I don't give her opinion one iota of credit

The only reason the teevee interviewed her is she is the daughter of the most evil bastard to ever hold the Vice Presidency.

[seabeyond]

19. nada. i dont think i have ever listened to a single thing the woman said. including

this thread, lol

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

21. The same thing that gives any celebrities opinion a single ounce of weight.

[ThePantaloon.com]

24. That's an insult to celebrity

At least most of them have worked their way up to stardom. Liz Cheney is a trailing fart from her daddy's noxious regime.

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

25. Oh yeah, Michael Douglas had to work his ass off.

[AllentownJake]

22. I don't know

McCain's little spoiled brat got free range for a while to spout utter nonsense.

[mimitabby]

23. the news shill that interviews her?

[Greyhound]

26. Vaginal selection.

Come out of the right one and you're made.

[BrklynLiberal]

27. Absolutely nothing.

[rhett o rick]

28. Is it me or did the Cheney's stop their pro-torture road trip when evidence of child abuse, torture

and rape were brought out? Funny how this has died out.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

29. She'll open her dad's coffin for Halloween and give him your address

[JimWis]

30. Not one damn thing.

[Canuckistanian]

32. We all sleep soundly at night DESPITE warhawks like the Cheneys

American military force has become the most destabilising factor in the world, thanks to Republican warhawks when they're in power.

[TheKentuckian]

33. She's a female Confederate that can actually articulate a point in a reasonably coherent fashion

Add in that she's Traitor Dicks offspring and that's all that is required.

They may also have gifted her daddy's place in line.

[mzmolly]

34. I hear ya! Who cares wtf she thinks?! I want to hear from the !@$% Bush twins!

Seriously ... I totally agree.
