They probably were hunting at a game ranch which doesn't allow dogs.  Cheney has a history of going to these ranches and so he can elsely shoot birds.  Other than that, the dogs were a casualty of previous hunts.

Boy, there's a debate.\n\nShort Answer: The United States, and it did it by spend the Soviet Union into oblivion. The USSR suffered the fate of most empires -- it overextended itself and ran of the resources necessary to sustain its empire.\nBut the US did it at a terrible cost. We are now stuck with a military-industrial complex that is bleeding us drive and could very soon threaten our own superiority.\n\nSo philosophical answer: The Cold War isn't over yet, and we could still lose.

Frankly I was not aware of this till now. But I did some 1 hour research for you question and here is what I found out.\n\nKennedy used "Castro-Card" to defeat Nixon as the Cold War was in full force. But he was unaware that the CIA had all planned and was more than happy to have the hawkish Kennedy to get elected.\n\nApparently Kennedy developed cold feet and tried to avoid "US Involvement" and did some utterly stupid changes to the plan which nothing but doomed the invasion. Its the worst fiasco to hit the Kennedy Administration.\n\nHere are some links with more material for your essay. If possible buy/rent that book "Decision for Disaster: Betrayal at the Bay of Pigs ". You will blow your peers' essays with your explosive view points...\n\nAll the Best. Please do message me as how you did and what score it fetched to you..\n\n.:Fishie:.

Okay I know some people Are going to think I am off my rocks on this one. My grandfather was given two books by his local priests before he moved to the united states. One was a bible. The other was a book that were suppose to have secrets of the times to come. He pass away more the 17 years ago and i have no idea what became of those books.\nI do remember him constantly saying that The bear and the united states where suppose to come together to fight against (don't remember what he said the symbol for china was however I do know it was china in no uncertain terms.) To fight againts china. That's suppose to be the war to end all wars. Or how you know that armagadon is here.\nThe Maize calander ends on 12/12/2012.\nWith that being said. People have been predicting the end of time for ever. Dooms day was suppose to have happened in the 80's. The Y2 K bug was suppose to paralize us. Yet nothing has happened yet. We have wait and see.

Strasveetya!  You really need to study more about the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, its a very intereting time in history.  Most of the American movies, by the way, called the Soviet Union "Russia."  For many, many years our countries were the worst of enemies.  It started around the end of World War II, and officially ended when Yeltsin took power.  Why?  Because America believed communism to be the greatest evil, and the Soviet Union believed capitalism to be the greatest evil.  We were in a state that is known as a cold war.  A cold war is essentially a state of war, but at a constant state of cease-fire.  Some shots were fired, mainly planes shooting down other planes, but no major battles were fought between the two countries.  However, we had enough nuclear missiles pointed at each other to completely destroy all life on this planet several times over.  The Cold War was never more tense than when Khrushchev and Kennedy were presidents, and Khrushchev said on international television that the Soviet Union would crush America (taking off his shoe and pounding it for all to see while he said it).  I believe two of the greatest leaders our nations ever had were Gorbachev and Reagan.  They did much to clam things down, and both began the process of disarming our nuclear missiles.  Slava Bog!

I have hope for the first time since apeboy sullied the oval office, actually.\n\n______\n\nFor scooter girl:\nClinton had an affair - Bush fraudulently started a war on fake intelligence reports and sent more American people to their deaths than died 9/11.\n\nWHO sullied WHAT and WHOM!? Perspective and priorities, my dear, perspective and priorities.

At the time, the Cold War was in full swing, he'd accuse some of his fellow Congressmen of being Communists, due to some legislation they were endorsing...Eisenhower had no real power to deal with him, but finally said, "enough is enough" Hence the whole Red Scare...Mc Carthy was a fear monger.

Here is what the President, the Vice President and Secretary of Defense used to think and wanted us to think:\n\nIn October 2003, a banner proclaiming "Mission Accomplished" on the aircraft carrier where President George W. Bush declared an end to major combat in Iraq came back to haunt him as the death toll rises. \n\nIraq insurgency in 'last throes,' Cheney says   May 31, 2005\nWASHINGTON (CNN) -- The insurgency in Iraq is "in the last throes," Vice President Dick Cheney says, and he predicts that the fighting will end before the Bush administration leaves office.\n\nRumsfeld dismisses Iraq's 'dead-enders' \nAssociated Press\nPosted 6/19/2003 \nWASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on Wednesday played down recent deadly attacks on Americans...\nAsked at Pentagon press conference about the Iraqi resistance, Rumsfeld described it as "small elements" of 10 to 20 people, not large military formations or networks of attackers. He said there "is a little debate" in the administration over whether there is any central control to the resistance,\n\nGlad I'm not a sheep!

You conspiracy theorists simply can't get enough to give it up.\n\nDo you think the Soviets would have allowed us to get away with such a lie for so long and not expose it?\n\nIf the the U.S.'s most secretive President in history can't conceal the NSA's wiretapping, how do you think anyone could have pulled off what you suggest for so long?\n\nYes, I do believe we went to and landed on the moon, and brought rocks back, too.

He said he was talking about Bush, but I don't believe it for a minute.  That's just a convenient after-the-fact excuse.\n\nI'm sure he got nothing but stunned silence after saying what he did.  If he was truly talking about Bush, he should have immediately clarified what he meant.  He didn't.\n\nHe's made disparaging remarks about the military before, especially after returning from Vietnam.

How is this:-\nDick Cheney walks into the Oval Office and sees The President whooping and hollering. \n"What's the matter, Mr. President?" The Vice President inquired. \n"Nothing at all, boss. I just done finished a jigsaw puzzle in record time!" The President beamed. \n"How long did it take you?" \n\n"Well, the box said '3 to 5 Years' but I did it in a month!"

The whole speech was a metaphorical comparison of the "cold war" to Bush's "war on terror".  His point was that by America's being able to claim victory in the cold war Truman was vindicated, and by extension his "war on terror" would be vindicated by its eventual success.  However, that is probably unlikely, whoever gets elected Dem. or Rep. is probably going to drop Iraq like a hot potato (with no e).  So, its just Bush trying to make himself feel better because he knows he isn't really popular in the polls.  Whether he really has oil interests in the region or represents them is another question entirely, and one I personally cannot answer with any definitive evidence either way, but then, Cheney does have well known ties to Haliburton.

End of War?\nApril 23, 1975 - President Gerald Ford gave a speech on declaring the end of the Vietnam War and the end of all U.S. aid to the Saigon regime.\n\nApril 30, 1975 - At 8:35 a.m., the last Americans, ten Marines from the embassy, depart Saigon, concluding the United States presence in Vietnam. North Vietnamese troops pour into Saigon and encounter little resistance. By 11 a.m., the red and blue Viet Cong flag flies from the presidential palace. President Minh broadcasts a message of unconditional surrender. The war is over.\n\nHowever, the last official U.S. battle in the conflict was on May 15, 1975 when 18 soldiers were killed on the last day of a rescue operation known as the Mayagüez incident involving a skirmish with the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. Those soldiers are listed last on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.

He also said "we will bury you!"\nHas that happened?\nSoviet Union disolved without shot being fired.\n\nexcerpt from link\nWe will bury you\nFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\n\nSoviet premier Nikita Khrushchev famously used an expression generally translated into English as "We will bury you!" ("?? ??? ?????????!", or "My vas pokhoronim!") while addressing Western ambassadors at reception in Moscow in November, 1956. [1] The translation has been controversial because it was presented as being belligerent out of context. The phrase may well have been intended to mean the Soviet Union would outlast the West, as a more complete version of the quote reads: "Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you" - a meaning more akin to "we will attend your funeral" than "we shall cause your funeral".\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_will_bury_you
