Then they lined us up for the Chney meet and greet. \u00c2\u00a0I asked Cheney during our photo op, “What do I say to all these people who tell me 9\/11 was an inside job?” \u00c2\u00a0I was smiling when I said it, leaning over him and grinning at the camera. \u00c2\u00a0In the moment when they shutter cliked, he heared the joy in my voice. \u00c2\u00a0I think it angered him. \u00c2\u00a0[note: \u00c2\u00a0“I think?”]<\/em> \u00c2\u00a0You can see some glumness in the photo.<\/p>\n [note: \u00c2\u00a0I can see glumness in any photograph of Cheney, 9\/11 Truth question or not.]<\/em><\/p>\n Calmly, he turned his whole body and gave me this wave of cold energy. \u00c2\u00a0[what’s the difference between Cheney warm energy and Cheney cold energy?]<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0“Just look at the evidence,” he said evenly. \u00c2\u00a0“It’s not true.”<\/p>\n Cheney’s calm was eerie. \u00c2\u00a0He sounded like he was trying to project confidence, but really there was a deep sandess inside him. \u00c2\u00a0[Was there?]<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 His spoke softly. \u00c2\u00a0[sic]<\/em> \u00c2\u00a0He was trying to exude “cast iron strength.” \u00c2\u00a0He wasn’t strong as iron, but he was cold the way iron is, the way it takes heat out of your hand. \u00c2\u00a0It all seemed an act. \u00c2\u00a0[It is a fundraiser photo op and signature, which is the same thing.]<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 His faced looked translucent, like that of someone in the hospital. \u00c2\u00a0[Yes, Cheney’s health problems are the stuff of legend. \u00c2\u00a0So?] \u00c2\u00a0<\/em>I could see tiny veins in his puffy cheeks and nose. \u00c2\u00a0[You’re standing way too closely.]<\/em><\/p>\n I felt greasy and siorintaed for twenty-four hours after that moment. \u00c2\u00a0Most people react with dramatic emotion when you bring up the “9\/11 is an inside job” talk. \u00c2\u00a0[Personally I react with a bit of an eye-roll, and can imagine Cheney would too.]<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 Cheney wasn’t surprised at all. \u00c2\u00a0He knew it all. \u00c2\u00a0[Huh?]<\/em><\/p>\n Cheney wasn’t surprised some guy had just popped up in the $5,000 donors’ photo-op line at a GOP fundraiser and started talking about 9\/11 being an inside job. \u00c2\u00a0[Or maybe he was, but didn’t think it was worth disrupting the steady flow of party supporters?]<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0He didn’t detail what “evidence” he had to the contrary, or where one could fin dit to prop up his besieged official sotry. \u00c2\u00a0[Not enough time, and not worth disrupting the steady flow of party supporters.]<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0He didn’t care what I thought I knew. \u00c2\u00a0[I imagine he thought he knew what Hicks thought he knew.] \u00c2\u00a0<\/em>He didn’t want to hear what “all these people” were saying. \u00c2\u00a0[Wasn’t he told what all those people were saying?]<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0He had a quick answer prepared and was ready for the next photo. \u00c2\u00a0[Yes. \u00c2\u00a0That’s the way this works. \u00c2\u00a0It would be the same if he was queried on Abortion or Iraq or –?]<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" From Sander Hicks’s book Slingshot to the Juggarnaut: \u00c2\u00a0Total Resistance to the Death Machine Means Complete Love of the Truth, published 2012 pages 301-304 Then they lined us up for the Chney meet and greet. \u00c2\u00a0I asked Cheney during our photo op, “What do I say to all these people who tell me 9\/11 was […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11456","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11456","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11456"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11456\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11457,"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11456\/revisions\/11457"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11456"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11456"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.struat.com\/election\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11456"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
