Cheney: My book will have ‘heads exploding’ in D.C.



When former Vice President Dick Cheney releases his memoir early next week, it may cause the second earthquake in Washington, D.C., this month.

“There are gonna be heads exploding all over Washington,’’ Cheney told NBC’s Jamie Gangel in an exclusive interview that will air on NBC’s “Dateline” at 10 p.m. ET Aug. 29.

In the book, titled “In My Time,’’ Cheney addresses a broad range of topics, including the attacks of Sept. 11; a secret resignation letter he kept in a safe in case he experienced catastrophic health issues, and his thoughts about former President George W. Bush and ex-Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell. The 46th vice president discusses those topics and more in his candid, unapologetic interview with Gangel, and he’ll likely have more to say when he appears live on TODAY with Matt Lauer on Aug. 30, the day his book hits stores.

I'd rather see Matt Lauer's head explode when Cheney tells him to GFY.

I think he'll be set up with loaded questions when he comes out on any mainstream media outlet.

Mr. Cheney has always struck me as a man that doesn't cotton to a lot of B.S. by anyone.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Well, there's no secret that Cheney and Powell didn't see eye to eye on many issues, not the least of which was the "diktat" issue.

Powell announced he'd be voting for Barry, and Cheney basically said he (Powell) should man up and become a Democrat.

Matt Lauer lacks the testicular fortitude to add VP Cheney a tough question fearing the an answer along the lines of "I shit bigger than you, cub scout."

I was just wondering if this book is made into a movie which actors will be cast in the various roles?

If you could cast this flick who would you pick??? :popcorn:

I'd love to see the expressions on Cheney's face when that snivelling Lauer asks his loaded questions. One of those looks could melt steel.

I love Dick Cheney, a man's man, despite his health.

Hi,

Powell is already covering his ass....in recent remarks which you can find on the Blaze website.

I do not recall which book I read but it was when Bush was elected the second time.  Powell called his staff together and told them that Bush was the president and that he was elected with more votes that any president in history and it is their job to support him.  He then left the room and his #2 in command stood up and said that John Kerry got more votes than any democrat candidate in history and that every department should basically sabotage Bush every chance they got.  Like it or not, Powell was their leader and it sounded to me like he either quietly supported his #2 or he was a terrible leader....or both.  Of course when Powell came out and supported BO it basically said to me that race trumps all other issues with him.

I hope Powell is blasted really good in the book, he deserves it.

regards,

They may indeed call when it arrives but those Starbucks toting hemp shirt wearing Birkenstock shod menstruating metrosexual bong sucking patchouli reeking pencil necked limp wristed nose ring bedazzled haircut needing Obama voting Oedipus worshiping whale saving tree hugging Peta donating toenail polishing boyfriend having military trashing mouse and spider eek jump on a stool fearing moped jockey girlie men working behind the counter won't be able to find it for you when you get there.

(a little bird told me just go look in the magazine aisle, top shelf of the bottom tier, the row you have to get down on one knee and look up to view. Unceremoniously crammed behind the crochet magazines with your order ticket attached. You will get the hot blond at the checkout because it will of course be time for Jeff Spicoli and Pauly Shore to be out back in the alley on a smoke break)
