Speaking From His Home In France, Alec Baldwin Calls Dick Cheney A 'Terrorist'
2006-02-18
So, I suppose the question is...what kind of civil trial will we see, or not see, between Cheney and Whittington? Whittington is certainly no stranger to a court room and to civil litigation. Will Cheney pay him off, preemptively? Will they go to court? I would imagine if a guy with a few beers in him shoots you in the face on a hunting trip, how could you turn down that opportunity?

What would Cheney do about the whole secrecy thing then? I mean, this is the guy that sicced Enron on Gray Davis and the state of California to embarrass Davis, trigger the recall and then watched Arnold Schwarzenegger become governor of California. (To this day, perhaps, still the low point in American political life.) Then Cheney covered it up.

Cheney's the guy who told Libby to out Valerie Plame. The rumor I heard is that someone yelled, "Look out! Shooter!" and Cheney thought he said Scooter and fired in that general direction.

Cheney is a terrorist. He terrorizes our enemies abroad and innocent citizens here at home indiscriminately. Who ever thought Harry Whittington would be the answer to America's prayers. Finally, someone who might get that lying, thieving Cheney into a courtroom to answer some direct questions.

#8  *sigh*

Which administration covered up Enron? Which one was calling regulators, asking them to do nothing about the Enron fraud?

#5  Then Cheney covered it up.

Yeah, that would explain why none of the Enron executives have ever been prosecuted.

#4  This is what passes as American cleverness in the cafes in France.

Just send my alimony check, you chump.
PS... Mickey Rourke is way hotter than you anyway. We did it on the set during "9 1/2 Weeks"

#2  Ya' know, I'm really beginning to hate these traitorous clowns.

There goes "Hunt for Red October" - I just can't forget this kind of stuff when I'm watching movies. If I were to watch it again, I wouldn't see Jack the character, I'd see Alec the traitor, and no amount of Sean Connery would change that. *Sigh.*

Just for Alec
since we know him and Kimmy are such tools.
