On May 19th, I attended a lecture and book-signing event, featuring former Vice President, Dick Cheney, and his wife, Lynne, at the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, CA. The pair were present to promote Lynne’s new book, James Madison: A Life Reconsidered. A friend had sent me an event listing from Code Pink who was calling for Dick’s symbolic citizens arrest (there wasn’t one, unfortunately). I immediately bought a ticket and started trying to figure out what to wear to hide my tattoos so I could blend in. I was especially concerned about the drunken peace sign on my leg, since we know how these people feel about peace.

Cassandra Fairbanks at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda
Former Vice President (President?) Dick Cheney and his wife Lynne thought they were on safe grounds Monday evening in Yorba Linda as they appeared together for a book event. Lynne, the pendeja who once infamously complained there wasn’t enough white men highlighted in U.S. history standards for children, authored James Madison: A Life Reconsidered about the nation’s fourth president. Protesters gathered outside the Nixon library. All went well for the Cheneys inside until Cassandra Fairbanks took her turn at the microphone.
In this video Cassandra Rules questions Lynne and Dick Cheney at a recent rare public event in Los Angeles California. Cassandra asked why whistleblowers like John Kiriakou are in jail for exposing illegal activity while Dick Cheney the person who committed the illegal acts is still free. As you can see in the video Dick Cheney sat silent as his wife Lynne did all the talking. She also mentions Edward Snowden and calls him a traitor. Special thanks to WeAreChange camera man Andrew Emett for filming.
