Article.

Apparently a warrant for his arrest will be asked from a judge in Nigeria next week over Halliburton.

Would be interesting if they actually do this or even enforce it.

he probably will have diplomatic immunity, considering he is the former VP...no main player in the political circle will ever get charged with anything

He needs to be held for more than this... Unfortunetly, he knows too much to let a foreign gov. get a hold of him.

Even if he is a ***... we can't let them have him.

Nothing will come of it but publicity for Cheney. Would be funny as hell if we extradited him though. I would support it!

And thats where the problem stems from.
If it where up to me, I would send his *** over there with a pretty bow around his neck. But sadly....he isnt going anywhere.

Start the underground talks with Iran and North Korea to bring about war on the US?

If they haven't already.

He doesnt have diplomatic immunity from charges the USA makes against him.

Nigera should suck it up. Half of their people are going to die from aids by the time they are 30, they need to worry less about Chenye and more about how they can stop breeding the animals that are their citizens.

Like Degs i doubt anything will come out of it but would be nice to see this "*** sword" to pay for something he's done for once. One of the biggest a-hole alive.

Everyone in politics is an *** hole. It's not just *** Cheyne. The job REQUIRES you to be an *** hole, if you didn't stand up for what you believe then you wouldn't be fit to lead.

Ok well if you don't do that stuff then you can't really get elected. Which means you can't actually help people. They don't get into politics with the idea "hey I want to *** everyone over." Instead they persue it out of genuine interest and unfortunately have to compromise their own integrety to get elected. You should blame the system.

No they arent and no it dosnt. Is that what you really belive. lol. A leader is an *** who swindles, shoots people in the face while hunting, back woods deals to benifit only himself, a chicken hawk, etc. No wonder why our politics are so *** up. We have values like this. And the sad part is, I remember you saying you were a political science major at some point on these threads. Lol.

I'm affraid some politicians take decisions that affects the majority in a bad way way more than others, he was the puppeteer when the idiot son of an a-hole was in office for "one" thing. He is one of the biggest a-hole, like it or not.
Having said that, have a good one and i won't reply anymore on this topic, there is nothing to argue about.

You don't seem to understand the concept. Sigh, ignorance is so annoying.

Step1: Average non-rich person wants to become a politician to help people

Step2: Average non-rich person doesn't have millions of dollars to run a campaign

Step3: Average non-rich person MUST get the money from a company or private donors.

Step4: Average non-rich person is now a politician who owes his financiers.

Step5: Average non-rich person is now considered "corrupt"

There you go.

You dont seem to understand my arguement. Reading is fundamental:

"Everyone in politics is an *** hole. It's not just *** Cheyne. The job REQUIRES you to be an *** hole, if you didn't stand up for what you believe then you wouldn't be fit to LEAD."

Made the that lead big for ya there. Key points here is Leader, ***, and standing up for what you believe in.

You clearly aren't understanding that you can't lead in the world of politics at all if you can't get elected. Blame the system, your point is still invalid.

You clearly are not typing what you are trying to communicate. So again:

"Everyone in politics is an *** hole. It's not just *** Cheyne. The job REQUIRES you to be an *** hole, if you didn't stand up for what you believe then you wouldn't be fit to lead."


I agree that you have to make some shady deals to get into office. Not what the issue is here. But I quoted you first because: Standing up for what you believe in is not taking money for something you dont. Among the other shitty things Chayne does. :/

I'm wondering if Cheney might just implicate someone else. Scapegoats are also crucial to politics.
