Richard Bruce "Dick" Cheney (born January 30, 1941) served as the 46th Vice President of the United States (2001-2009), under George W. Bush.

Cheney was born in Lincoln, Nebraska, but was primarily raised in Sumner, Nebraska and Casper, Wyoming. He began his political career as an intern for Congressman William A. Steiger, eventually working his way into the White House during the Nixon and Ford administrations, where he served the latter as White House Chief of Staff. In 1978, Cheney was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Wyoming; he was reelected five times, eventually becoming House Minority Whip. Cheney was selected to be the Secretary of Defense during the presidency of George H. W. Bush, holding the position for the majority of Bush's term. During this time, Cheney oversaw the 1991 Operation Desert Storm, among other actions.

Out of office during the Clinton presidency, Cheney was chairman and CEO of Halliburton Company from 1995 to 2000.

Please share with your friends..especially your ex's! Lyrics: I was so lonely on my own Then you came in my life Asking to be my wife I didn't answer when you propo-oo-wosed Instead I started to cry And now you're asking me why Well since you asked me to share I think that it's only fair That I tell you how I'm feeling right now When you're here The blood vessels in my head start to pound When you're here It's hard for me to keep my dinner down When you're here The clothes you choose to wear That are too tight for your huge behind Make me wish I were blind Can't stand you I've never been this nauseous before I keep a baggie in case I happen to see your face And the stench you left is stuck in my flo-oo-wore In case you didn't know Perfume won't cover BO When you walk away The whole house begins to shake Can you see how much you disgust me now-ow-how-oo wow-ow When you're here I fantasize I'm in another place When you're here Like hurtling towards the sun in outer space When you're here the thought of spending life Forever with you as my bride Bring thoughts of suicide Can't Stand You Not sure I can recover Seeing you uncovered Made me disturbed, yeah-ah-ah-ah I would rather hook up with an angry shark Walk through Compton with a white hood in the dark Before I'd marry you I'd go hunting with Dick Cheney, yeah When you're here Faces I would rather date appear When you're here Like Janet Reno, Rosie, or Britney Spears When you're here The thought of seeing you Come <b>...</b>
