Some nutty liberals are insinuating Cheney led his own personal assassination squad. Wouldn’t that be awesome? And what if he’s still in an underground bunker somewhere sending orders to his assassination squad? Then, no matter how dark things get, we can say to ourselves, “Don’t give up hope; Dick Cheney is out there somewhere with his assassination squad.” And before liberals do anything to liberal, they’ll think to themselves, “Will that be enough to get the notice of Dick Cheney’s assassination squad?”
So, even if it isn’t true, we should spread the rumor to give us hope. Hope for change.

Maybe his assassination squad will consist of Dinosaurs with lasers. That would be great!
I wouldn’t really call it a “squad”. Cheney would just call up Fred Thompson and ask him to pay a visit to certain people who happen to be liberals or other enemies of America.
That would be awesome. Where do I sign up to join this assassination squad of awesome? Oh right lefties also think they were spying on Americans so I guess they already know of my interest.
I can haz membership?
Holy crap, that is freaking awesome.
Only David Frum would oppose that.
The Dick Cheney assassination squad could have a contest with the Karl Rove Fox News All-Star assassination squad. It’ll be great! Who wouldn’t want to be assassinated by Alisyn Camerota?
Bush, Cheney and Rove running the Republic of Texas. I’d pack today, gas-up and hit the road.
Ummm ixnay on the adsquay.
48.
It was once prophesied by the ancients that at a time when all appears lost, a shotgun-toting Liberator will arise and lead conservatives to the Promised Land of Cheap Gasoline and Free Ammo. So let it be written, so let it be done.
To 7: No no no. It’s ok. We should talk about it since if we do they won’t think we can possibly be telling the truth but then they’ll think we are because their other lefties told them it was true and they’ll be completely confused. Hopefully their heads will explode or go in to a coma or something.
Lechteron, you obviously must be a moby. How else can you ignore the “48”.
I mean, if you were a member of the VRWC, you would have understood that.
Oh… I was wondering who served as the model for Jon Voight’s character and organization on “24.” Now I know.
If Vice President in exile Cheney had an assination squad, don’t you think they would have practiced on someone unimportant, like keith uberidiot? And wouldn’t one of the sleaze balls in the left wing media have uncovered the secret long before the moron hersch? Even someone as talentless as chrissy mathews is a better story teller than this twit. So fear not, unless your a terrorist or communist, or democrat, (sorry about the redundency)the Vice President does not have a secret assination squad (wink, wink).
Okay, so 48 was premature, I just got a 33 in my inbox, so…..
Of course he has hit squads, why do you think he’s constantly warning America that we’ll be attacked because we elected Obama? Because he’s about to unleash us….. errrr…. them.
I suppose that they even have a “secret handshake”?
i think if you call his Assassination Squads, Assassination Squads, you are going to get Assassinated! Squads just sounds so gay! Like in Cheer Leading Squads and so on… Now you could probably call them Assassination Dark Thunder Go Teams, and you would be very safe! I’m not even sure about Assassination having Ass in it twice…very dangerous ground with Cheney!
And where do we sign-up for the squad; also I can supply a list … rather lengthy too!!!
The salute is just one finger.
Any body see the latest news? Joe the Vice-President got caught using the F-Word on an open mike…..he told another politician to “give me a f**king break.” Millions of middle class tax payers should be able to equate to that….we’ve been saying the same thing for years….not that it’s done us any good.
Ussjimmycarter, “Assassination” should clearly have two n’s in it I spell it thusly:
Assassinnation.
Any two asses (assass) come to mind?
If Obama follows the “terrorism is a legal issue, not a military one” stupidity of the Clinton years, and there’s no reason to think he won’t, than the only thing we have to worry about are ATF agents.
I remember listening to NPR after the Waco mess, where the ATF agent was telling the congressional committee that they used “tear gas and a propellant” in the last attack. After much pushing, the ATF agent admitted the propellant was ether. So basically they took a place with power cut off to it, lit by candles and gasoline lamps, and pumped something extremely flamable into it in large amounts. What could go wrong?
If I were picked to be part of the operation as the targeting officer (and I’d pretty much suck d…to have the honor to be chosen…err) um…never mind that last part. Anyway, the list would need to be so Super Top Extra Level Nuclear Secret that nobody could know who’s on it. Not even Cheney!
“Cheney led his own personal assassination squad” sounds alot like Cheney led the squad that is in charge of assassinating Cheney. So Cheney would be in charge of assassinating himself? What?
I think it would be useful to have a secret order of ninja knights to deal with out-of-control hippies and such like.
#7 & #9, lemme know if ya wanna get up a caravan. Can we stop and pick up GovPalin on the way?
Olbermann is already terrified…of course, since no one actually watches his show there’s no way Cheney could ever considered him any type of threat.
…that should say “consider”, not “considered”. Funny thing is, the one guy who wouldn’t know would be Olbermann. They’re probably not too picky about things like proper grammar in agricultural school.
To good to be true : If Cheney had assassination squads—– We would not be saddled with that IDIOT Balack Osama in the white house!
Nil mortifi, sine lucre.
“We do not Murder,” he said. It was a soft voice; the doctor never raised his voice, but he had a way of giving it the pitch and spin that could make it be heard through a hurricane.
“We do not Execute. We do not Massacre. We never, you may be very certain, we never Torture. We have no truck with crimes of passion or hatred or pointless gain. We do not do it for a delight in inhumation, or to feed some secret inner need, or for petty advantage, or for some cause or belief; I tell you, gentlemen, that all these reasons are in the highest degree suspect. Look into the face of a man who will kill you for a belief and your nostrils will snuff up the scent of abomination. Hear a speech declaring a holy war and, I assure you, your ears should catch the clink of evil’s scales and the dragging of its monstrous tail over the purity of the language.
“No, we do it for the money.
“And, because we above all must know the value of a human life, we do it for a great deal of money.
“There can be few cleaner motives, so shorn of all pretense.
“‘Nil mortifi, sine lucre.’ Remember. No killing without payment”
He paused for a moment.
“And always give a receipt,” he added.

OF COURSE Cheney has a hit squad……well HAD a hit squad, due to the OBAMAnation in the white house some of us got our pink slips………for now 😉
Interesting concept… but he WOULD need a squad wouldn’t he! He’s not much of a shot himself. Couldn’t off a lawyer point blank with a shot gun… Ofcourse he probably didn’t have much time for practice.
He lives still, on a hilltop in the West. He rides a white horse, and has a thousand faces.
And some moonlit night, when the wind is still…
That guy Hersh is a douche in real need of a kick to the groin. They call this journalism? The Joint Special Operations Command has been around since before I resigned my commission in 1994. http://www.socom.mil/ They do not report to the VP. They report to the Pentagon, like all military units. However, Hersh did have one thing correct… they kill terrorists and hippies for fun.
Cheney HAD his own assassination squad before Obama’s inauguration but they’ve since gone “ROAG”. But now I forget what the acronym means. Anyone?… Anyone????…

America was a safer place when Dick Cheney was in Office.
I have no doubt this is true. Kudos and great thanks to Sy Hersch for exposing yet another BLATANTLY illegal operation )along with Gitmo, rendition, justicedepartment rape, etc, etc, etc) of the most lawlessness, murderous administration in history.
