Where would Dick Cheney spend Earth Day? Who would welcome his company? Who would he invite along?
What kind of people would want him around or want to be around him? What nefarious business would he be conducting? Who would do business with him?
I found out.

It has long been suspected that Darth Cheney gets up every morning vowing to do evil and is particularly pleased when it is petroleum based evil.
So Cheney is having a fund raiser for Vito (The Vile) Fossella as part of a Republican Program called ROMP (Regain Our Majority Program) I know it's a dumb name, but they made it up, not me. Also stupid is that if they are supporting their incumbents their name should be Retain Our Minority Pointlessness. But I digress.
Who would Cheney hang with on Earth Day?
The owners of Koch Industries, that's who.
Cheney is hosting the fund raiser at their home in New York.
According to the Steve Harrison For Congress Folks: link
Here are some quick facts:
It's been responsible for over 300 oil spills.
Fined over $40 million dollars by our government. In the months
preceding the 2000 elections, Koch Industries faced a 97 count
federal indictment.After George W. Bush became president, 88 of the
charges were dropped.Koch Industries had donated $800,000 to Bush and
other Republican candidates.
Sorta makes sense, the oil people are the only ones left who'll even speak to Darth. Vito needs the money badly, his treasurer was the same guy who embezzled the RNC.
For those who don't know Vito (The Vile) Fossella is the only Repub rep from NY City.
He represents Staten Island and parts of South West Brooklyn.
He outspent Harrison 13 to 1 in 2006. If the Dems have the big year this year all of NY City (and State?) could turn blue.
P.S. I know that tomorrow is actually Earth Day not today. These people are so loathsome they can defile Earth Day by mere temporal proximity.
