Dick Cheney for Speaker?
October 12, 2015
By Taegan Goddard
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) told Politico that with all the instability in the House leadership, its time to turn to former Vice President Dick Cheney.
Said Cotton:
Look, these are trying times for our nation. Its important to have a steady hand on the helm during times like this. I think experience really counts in a matter like this. I think House leadership experience really matters. And as you know the speaker doesnt have to be a member of the House: So therefore, Vice President Cheney for speaker.

Put this in the CRM-114 Discriminator:
Guy really is experienced with the nuclear option. In addition to helping lie America into illegal, immoral, unnecessary and disastrous wars for profit, Cheney may've tried to move nuclear warheads around the USA without authorization.
