For anyone whose ever read my writing you know I am not a fan of the former vice-president. I don't like to use the word hate. I don't like to feel it, think it, or act on it. But my feelings toward Dick Cheney borderline on hate. I don't understand how someone with his character flaws can reach such a high level of importance. I sat around after his latest journey into the surreal, "I'd do it again," and wondered of a word that could describe his behavior. It came as no surprise that one word was not enough, so I had to use two. I came up with Cheney is a feckless turd. Let me explain.
The definition of feckless is: feckless[ fek-lis]
adjective
1. ineffective; incompetent; futile: feckless attempts to repair the plumbing.
2. having no sense of responsibility; indifferent; lazy.
The definition of Turd is: noun [Slang: Vulgar.]
1. a piece of excrement.
2. a mean, contemptible person.
Evidence of Feckless Turditity.
- Despite evidence to the contrary Cheney said that Mohammed Atta met with former Iraqi intelligence officer al-Ani in Praque in April 2001. They didn't meet.
- He also said,"I think they're in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency." --Vice President Dick Cheney, on the Iraq insurgency, June 20, 2005. They weren't.
- "...my belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators." We weren't.
- "We know he's been absolutely devoted to trying to acquire nuclear weapons, and we believe he has, in fact, reconstituted nuclear weapons." There was no devotion and they had no WMD's.
- Cheney's Halliburton Made $39.5 Billion on the Iraq War. They did.
If Dick Cheney believe's these facts to be true, he is at least incompetent and ineffective. If he lied about them he is a contemptible person. The result that his lies led to the death of 4,491 U.S. service members denotes him as being a piece of excrement.
Moreover, that he recently said he would do it over again, killing numerous American's and civilians, means he is ineffective. In addition, the statement that he would "do it again" also leads one to the conclusion the he is irresponsible and indifferent, thus feckless.
The facts are as clear as Dick Cheney's conscious seems to be, Dick Cheney is a Feckless Turd.
