Hillary Calls Cheney "Darth Vader"

Politico:

"Vice President Cheney came up to see the Republicans yesterday. You can always tell when the Republicans are getting restless, because the Vice President's motorcade pulls into the Capitol, and Darth Vader emerges," Hillary Clinton said just now at a $100-a-head fundraiser at Town Hall near New York's Times Square, referring to Cheney's efforts shore up Republican congressional support for the Iraq war.

"I'm not invited to their meetings and I don't know what he says or does," she said, in an informal conversation on stage with former Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack and retired General Wesley Clark. "But all the brave talk about bringing our troops home, and setting deadlines, and getting out by a certain date just dissipated."

Hillary is wrong. Luke sensed good in Darth Vader, and it turned out Luke was right. Darth had good in him in the end. Can't say the same with Cheney. Cheney is more like The Emperor...no conscious at all.

[mommyatty]

Or Count Dooku . . . in the end, just another minion who gets his.

[blooddoc]

Cheney's AICD device keeps him alive, so in that sense he's more like a malevolent C3PO.

[iluvsam]

General Grievous may be the best analogy, perhaps.

[batmanindy]

Never thought I'd be saying this but a) she has won me over and b) she will be our next (legitimate) POTUS.

The girl got game!

[mommyatty]

Same with me, Batman. Didn't want to support or like her but unfortunately, she is the only one with the gonads to stand up to the hollow bullies. (In a woman, the gonads are the ovaries, by the way. Historically underestimated.)

[V4Vendetta]

If he's Darth Vader, who is the Emperor?

[Mutineer]

Hmmm, don't know, but here's a candidate.

Have you seen a picture of Bush 1 lately?

There's your evil emperor!

Hillary as Big Brother. I hate her health care plan
The Canadian plan would cost 70 billion.
Why is Hillary giving us less care for more money?
Can't we start with the Canadian Health Care and improve it.

[DumbDad]

a. better coverage, including American treatment for relatively rare cancers, genetic disorders and the like which Candadian care can't touch
b. letting everybody choose their preference means leaving the medicine-for-profit structure in place which also means, given the peculiarities of medical economics, that everything costs MORE because you can't bargain from a single purchaser position.
c. without those two elements no health care plan will pass the powers that be.

Learn more, hate less.

Great pic.

[dryfactoidobotanoid]

in this case, "takes one to know one" applies

Hillary = eager cheerleader for bombing Iran and starting world war 3

[dryfactoidobotanoid]

henceforth, she will be known as ...

Darth ... Pantsuit.

[dryfactoidobotanoid]

and if you want to steal any of my comments, I promise I won't sue you like Cenk Uygur.

[CalculatedRiskTaker]

Well, she has my vote!


Keep talking

[SensibleAmerican]

I just knew that any post on Hillary, negative or positive will have the same mindless rhetoric from the nader-loving-wide-eyed-socialists!

Just like Barack Hussein is a "candidate for change" but no one knows why or how, so is Hillary "evil" and no one can subtantiate why or how?!

Interesting herd and constantly baying at the moon!

[Podewumun]

OK, fine, it's just you and me bow-ey, the UnSensibleAmerican - vs - ME.
First move is yours.
Go Mofo. Take yer best shot.

[accountability]

Hey insensible, please stop making so much noise dear, the big people are trying to have a convesation.
How about going in the other room and playing with your toys.

[dadw5boys]

Don't like the socialist part of American life?
Then stay off the HIGHWAYS, BRIDGES, OUT OF THE TUNNELS, AND OFF THE BEACHES that were BUILT and supported with Public Funds.

[Trollstakeyourmeds]

The use of Senator Obama's first and second name isn't going to work with literate people. Most of us are not hiding under our beds, quaking in fear of Muslims, like you bunch of toothless, cousin marrying, nascar fans. Got that plastic and duct tape yet?

[TooLooze]

Since the government we installed in Iraq has universal health care and calls for dividing up oil profits there, it's time you morons realized that is more socialist than we are.

Thats mindless rhetoric, SensibleAmerican!

[RabidRightRebel]

I just wish someone would push to send Cheney to Iraqi to sort out the Diplomatic issues and tell him not to come back with out either an agreement or our military. If Cheney had to put himself at risk their Iraqi cluster***k would be over within a month.

[Podewumun]

I M LOL SO HARD IT FRIGGIN HURTS!

Cheney?.....Diplomacy??????....Mr. 'Go fuck yourself' !???????
BwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH Sheee-iT!

[Dantana]

Hillary has my vote as well, I'm a big fan of Clinton (Bill), and if calling Cheney DV is such as big deal, well get over it, he told someone on the Senate floor to go F himself, so la-te-dah!
At least she's committed to ending this Goddamn war, interesting how this Blackwater fiasco is unfolding and guess what, the owner has ties that goes back to old man Bush, wonder of wonders, their reach is endless!

[brooklyncitizen]

She is most certainly not committed to encing this war...the hillary problem is precisely knowing what she is truly committed to other than getting herself elected.

Clearly Hillary is a fan of the Daily SHow who's been using this Darth reference for sometime when speaking of Cheney.

[Libsrule]

He's been called Darth Vader, or Darth Cheney for years.

One of the best little videos was on Jon Stewart's show when he started playing Darth's music while Cheney was walking.

It was classic.

[hugs4u]

hIllary calling cheney anything is the pot calling the kettle black. She is just a carpet bagging repukeican saying she is a democrat. Since 1964 I have never voted for anything but a democrat. She wins the nominee and I would rather vote for a real repukeican, cause you expect them to screw you. She is a two face witch that blows with the wind.

[jinjinpinti]

Proof, please. Show us the hard evidence of your last sentence. How "two face witch?" "Blows with" WHAT "wind?" No? I didn't think so. Just more oral diarrhea from another exit orifice.
