> Question: Is Dick Cheney Dead?

8 September 2005, 07:37

If Saddam and Idi Amin had doubles, why shouldn’t Cheney?

Dick Cheney was off to the side with Rove — I saw that on television — the speech was in the Rose Garden, and standing there, like a fawn in the dappled shade, was Cheney or someone who had his mannerisms down.

However, the shot was middle distance and I could not be sure. I noticed this because back in July, after Cheney returned from Vail, where he had been hustled into the cardiac care unit, Cheney ( I presume) and Lynne were standing in the same place in the Rose Garden while Bush blathered about something.

The administration is especially given to fakery —fat Osama, the Nick Berg beheading (that head shudda been dribbling and dripping), the Jessica Lynch rescue, actors to stand in for soldiers so the press wouldn’t hear anything but happy talk... It would not be a surprise if Cheney’s stand in suddenly got a bigger part.

I can’t say for sure that Cheney’s dead. I can’t say for sure that he’s alive. So I will say he is undead.
