McCain On Cheney In His Cabinet: "Hell, Yeah."

He's a highly effective fundraiser in an election cycle in which Republicans are starved for cash, a hero to the wing of the party that views John McCain with the most suspicion. He has four decades of campaign experience, ranging from a short stint running Gerald Ford's election bid in 1976 to two successful races on the presidential ticket....

Going further, McCain even told Hayes in comments heretofore unpublished that he'd consider Cheney for an administration post. Asked whether he'd be interested in Cheney had the vice president not already have served under Bush for two terms, McCain said: "I don't know if I would want him as vice president. He and I have the same strengths. But to serve in other capacities? Hell, yeah."

Yuck!

They have the same strengths alright...

Lickspittle McCain has done it again. Perhaps he didn't notice how popular the great Cheney really is! His presence in MS-01 probably lost the sure Republican seat to a Democrat the pug uglies tied to Obama!
Broadcast this McCain promise: if he's elected, Cheney will continue as Boss!

[NoSillyName]

Enough of the Neo Cons, especially the biggest one of them all. Send that living embodiment of evil back to Wyoming.

[Nyla785]

So HOW is McCain's presidency going to NOT be Bush term #3??

[oafishcad]

Secretary of Energy. His energy policy has worked out so well.

[levibatgirl]

Keep it up, mcmoron.

[vocalist]

Can someone slap the smirk off of the face of the war criminal ....

Too late John. Cheney is not interested. He has already stole every cent that was not nailed down.

[outnow]

Is having Cheney "change you can believe in?" McCain's true colors are in plain view.

Doubt if he will be available I am hoping that if the congress in the US does not bring up Cheney on charges that the world court will do so in the same way that Pinochet was brought to trial ... he may be unavailable since he and his chimp (oops W) will with any justice in the world be behind bars ...
But not to worry McCain you will not be president ...

[CindyInIndy]

Perhaps they will first go on a hunting trip.

Pandering to those conservatives again? I just gotta shake my head. That's no way to get the moderates and the independents.

[DemsUnite]

This would not be change. Rather more of the same. I wonder who is next to get shot in the face? They are all connected and not affected by the economic crisis at hand. Which is why he, McC, does not have a plan or answers for us. He continues to demonstrated his lack of leadership skills and why he is not presidential. He failed in his bid against George Bush so now he is chosing to join him.

With the People and the I.C.C. on his fat ass, he'll be lucky to walk away at all. Cheney is a fascist traitor, subverter, and a war criminal, but then, law enforcement and Congress already knows that.

I hope Robert Mueller of the FBI has no interest in serving a traitor and is instead turning his fullest attention to Mr. Cheney, the quintessential homegrown terrorist. That means tapping his phones, reading his emails and surveilling his every move. If not, I want to know why, particularly, when the fed has known for some time that Cheney and the Neo Cons subverted our government.

He betrayed the CIA's Brewster Jennings and NOC Plame to realize the Neo Con PNAC. That_is_treason. There's all the probable cause the FBI needs to get a court ordered tap. Come '09, the People are going to want to know exactly what law enforcement did to defend and protect the Constitution over the last eight years.
