Cheney ‘Worried Sick’ Over Public Image Damage
by Scott Ott
(2006-02-15) — Vice President ***** Cheney has spent four sleepless
nights, poring over popularity poll numbers, analyzing focus group data
and crafting an emotional speech designed to turn last weekend’s
accidental shooting of a hunting buddy from a PR nightmare into “a
comeback-kid moment.”
“We’ve seen this all before,” said an unnamed former White House
official who helped a previous president react to his own public
relations challenges. “Right now, ***** Cheney is probably standing in
front of his bathroom mirror to practice biting his lip, dropping his
chin and making other dramatic facial expressions that simulate genuine
remorse.”
The vice president’s grief, insiders said, is not over the shotgun wound
suffered by his friend, Harry Whittington, but over his own failure to
notify the White House press corps immediately after the incident.
In an ironic turnabout for the former “darling of the news media,” Mr.
Cheney finds himself at odds with the very journalists who helped him
craft his public persona as an affable and wise man of the people.
Anonymous sources said that the vice president knew he had a disaster on
his hands when NBC TV reporter David Gregory called White House
spokesman Scott McClellan a “jerk.”
“When a man of the caliber of David Gregory turns on you, it’s time to
freshen that résumé,” said one unnamed source. “The sad thing is that
this whole tragedy could have been avoided if ***** Cheney had understood
that his primary obligation is to the journalists who made him what he
is today.”
In related news, the vice president’s spokesman denied that Mr. Cheney
has asked President George Bush to divert attention from the quail
hunting accident by “bombing something overseas.”

That seems to be the motto of this administration? If bombing in America,
start bombing overseas.
Iran better watch out. The latest poll has Bush back to 39%, his lowest
approval rating.

LOL, no *****. Republicans won't do anything without focus groups. I
guess they didn't tell Fred. He must not have made the focus group
cut.

The "***** Cheney doesn't give a ***** what the press thinks" meme
strikes again. Ever think they have one or two clever guys working in
an office somewhere who think this ***** up, then they just send a memo
out to "the press" and within hours PRESTO, every dittohead in America
is repeating it.
It's a thing of beauty, when you think about it.

If the angry voter movement loses steam between now and then you could be
right.
I hope you're wrong, but that's why they have the elections, so we'll see.

Anger doesn't win elections unless the other side has something positive
to offer. The Democrats have nothing positive.

Cheney ‘Worried Sick’ Over Public Image Damage
by Scott Ott
(2006-02-15) — Vice President ***** Cheney has spent four sleepless
nights, poring over popularity poll numbers, analyzing focus group
data and crafting an emotional speech designed to turn last
weekend’s accidental shooting of a hunting buddy from a PR nightmare
into “a comeback-kid moment.”
“We’ve seen this all before,” said an unnamed former White House
official who helped a previous president react to his own public
relations challenges. “Right now, ***** Cheney is probably standing
in front of his bathroom mirror to practice biting his lip, dropping
his chin and making other dramatic facial expressions that simulate
genuine remorse.”
The vice president’s grief, insiders said, is not over the shotgun
wound suffered by his friend, Harry Whittington, but over his own
failure to notify the White House press corps immediately after the
incident.
In an ironic turnabout for the former “darling of the news media,”
Mr. Cheney finds himself at odds with the very journalists who
helped him craft his public persona as an affable and wise man of
the people.
Anonymous sources said that the vice president knew he had a
disaster on his hands when NBC TV reporter David Gregory called
White House spokesman Scott McClellan a “jerk.”
“When a man of the caliber of David Gregory turns on you, it’s time
to freshen that résumé,” said one unnamed source. “The sad thing is
that this whole tragedy could have been avoided if ***** Cheney had
understood that his primary obligation is to the journalists who
made him what he is today.”
In related news, the vice president’s spokesman denied that Mr.
Cheney has asked President George Bush to divert attention from the
quail hunting accident by “bombing something overseas.”

It's easy to look incompetent when the other side is corrupt. At
least to the rubes.

remorse.”
The vice president’s grief, insiders said, is not over the shotgun wound
suffered by his friend, Harry Whittington, but over his own failure to
notify the White House press corps immediately after the incident.
In an ironic turnabout for the former “darling of the news media,” Mr.
Cheney finds himself at odds with the very journalists who helped him
craft his public persona as an affable and wise man of the people.
Anonymous sources said that the vice president knew he had a disaster on
his hands when NBC TV reporter David Gregory called White House
spokesman Scott McClellan a “jerk.”
“When a man of the caliber of David Gregory turns on you, it’s time to
freshen that résumé,” said one unnamed source. “The sad thing is that
this whole tragedy could have been avoided if ***** Cheney had understood
that his primary obligation is to the journalists who made him what he
is today.”
In related news, the vice president’s spokesman denied that Mr. Cheney
has asked President George Bush to divert attention from the quail
hunting accident by “bombing something overseas.”
Yeah, and god forbid the man might lie about getting a ***** - then
the ***** might really hit the fan. Someone might actually start doing
something realllly lame and partisan, like call for an impeachment.
