    Old golfers never die; they just lose their balls.

    Dick Cheney was part of a golf foursome, and when he had a stroke on the 8th fairway, they made him count it.

    that was only for a few holes, diego. Somebody finally secured a golf cart …..it was a lot easier dragging him from hole to hole after that

    I wonder how people who want Dick Cheney to die will benefit if he does. Will they become instantly happy? Will they become millionaires? If that sort of thing happens, should I hope for Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid to die? No, because I’m not a hater. Simply because I disagree with someone’s politics is no reason for me to wish them harm, but the “tolerant” lefties always seem to have that view about their foes.

    And just to be clear, I thought Sheik’s joke was hilarious.

    I was going to ask what this cartoon means before I read these trash comments. And this site claims to be so above it all! HA!

    Thanks so much for your kind and loving comments. We could not stand existence if we did not have your lavish and loving words around to comfort us!

    An hour later:

    Oh, but Iris, it looks as if you deleted the “Best” stuff. How can we appreciate your eloquent words when you steal them from us?

    Or maybe gocomics has removed some words for us. My “because he can” (battycomic) comment was removed. They still hesitate to give us more useful pointers on what goes and what doesn’t.

    No, troublemakerbear, I did not remove my own comment, but I’m sure you did as usual. I see all the vulgar comments wishing Cheney dead are gone too, but you pick me out to start with. Why, because I pointed out the ususal group of hateful culprits, and you happen to be the biggest, loudest, most offensive one of them all? It amazes me that YOUR account hasn’t been banished yet with the insults and the hate and harassment you spread around this place.

    MisngNOLA I started reading comments from the bottom up, and I thought there must be some really hateful comments up there about Cheney. Then I get to the top and what do I see? An old golf joke with Cheney as the object rather than some made up name. That’s it. Nothing political other than using his name. It would have been funnier, I suppose, if it were someone who was known to have a lot of strokes, but his multiple heart attacks are close enough, I guess.

    At any rate, I don’t see anything up there as wishing him dead. It’s just a stupid joke, and not a hateful one at that.

    Because it was all removed already. You may have started at the bottom, but don’t know how to read.

    cd, the comment to which I referred was removed. If you read all of my post, you’ll note that I thought the joke was funny, the comment which was removed referenced Cheney dying. Thanks for understanding :-)
