Poll question: Who's more evil - Dick Cheney or Grover Norquist?
Edited on Thu Aug-12-10 08:24 AM by rox63
Yeah, Cheney's done a lot of evil things, and is responsible for countless deaths of innocent people. But he's probably not going to live much longer. Norquist is relatively young and healthy, and his evil ideas can still be used to cause decades of misery and unnecessary deaths by the elimination of our fragile social safety net.

2. Grover always struck me as a freelance toadie.
Neocon concierge. But maybe I underestimate him.

10. You do. He's the heart and soul of GOP economic policy
and their intellectual savior. He's a snake oil salesman who can persuade any ignorant and incurious "star" they come up with for the oval office that tax cuts increase revenue and shoveling money to the rich will make the poor happy and that destroying the government through bankruptcy is a great idea.

He's vicious and dangerous and doesn't care about anything but his dogma.

11. He may not be quite as evil as Cheney, but he has way more influence than
the Left likes to give him credit for--and he doesn't care who he exploits to get his dirty work done.

3. Personally, I chose Cheney
He's a classic definition of evil. But Grover Norquist is a truly despicable human being as well. Hearing his voice and seeing his image on the teevee makes my brain hurt.

7. Norquist is the little laughing rat like toadie to Jabba the Hut.
He's a punk toe-sucker of the powerful.

8. Cheney has done more evil only because in his position as
vice-president he was able to do more. Actually, both are sociopaths of a high order.
Who can tell what Norquist might have done if he had been the vice-pres.?

9. Grover is
younger and more vocal since age and health has made Cheney ineffective.

12. Good question but I'll go with Darth as he was doing great evil before Grover could dress himself
Dick has been in about all the dirt for around fifty years.

13. Who is more evil - Goebbels or Himmler?
They each have their evil niche - Cheney couldn't do the things Norquist can, nor can Norquist do the things Cheney could. To decide which is more evil would be to decide which is better than the other, and I refuse to acknowledge any 'better' about either of them.
