Vice President's Remarks at the United States Military Academy Commencement
West Point, New York

9:17 A.M. EDT

Excerpt

"As Army officers on duty in the war on terror, you will now face enemies who oppose and despise everything you know to be right, every notion of upright conduct and character, and every belief you consider worth fighting for and living for. Capture one of these killers, and he'll be quick to demand the protections of the Geneva Convention and the Constitution of the United States. Yet when they wage attacks or take captives, their delicate sensibilities seem to fall away."

Mr. Cheney,

Your War on Terror is about as well defined as war on obesity or war on loneliness!

"you will now face enemies who oppose and despise everything you know to be right, every notion of upright conduct and character, and every belief you consider worth fighting for and living for".

Mr. Cheney, you have personally provided lots of possibilities to fight and die, and Americans have given their lives in the thousands in Iraq and will continue to die from DU poisoning after their return, if they are "lucky" enough to return.

Please Mr. Cheney, tell us about upright conduct (you were too busy to go to Vietnam, if I am not mistaken), tell us about character and beliefs you consider worth fighting for and living for. Will be find them in Abu Graib, in Guantanamo, or in the Iraqi weapons of mass destruction?

May the commencement of your next evil plot of aggression against Iran or Syria be the signal to finish you off along with your ilk and your destructive and self destructing New American Century.

You deem the Geneva Conventions irrelevant, and for once I must admit that I agree with you. The Geneva Conventions regulate wars between nations, not perverse governments' wars against their own people! The Geneva Conventions do not apply when you will be convicted, but you will surely be tried and convicted for your attack on the US Constitution and the US population.

The veep last spoke at West Point four years ago. He is still peddling the phony link between Iraq and Al Qaeda.

The Geneva Conventions are for humans, and since Cheney is a cold-blooded reptile, they don't apply to his monotreme ass.
