Mr. Burns from the Simpsons seems to act, and look just like Dick Cheney!
Is he another scumbag Republican?

A staunchly conservative Republican
The head of Springfield's local Republican Party (other members have included Sideshow Bob, the Rich Texan, Rainer Wolfcastle, Dr. Hibbert, Krusty the Clown, Bob Dole, Ralph Nader, and Count Dracula). In a parody of both Rupert Murdoch and William Randolph Hearst, he once attempted to buy every media outlet in Springfield, but his plans failed after Lisa started her own newspaper.
He once mentions his hatred of Democrats for "letting the Spaniards back in the pantry."

Definitely no. You bring up the biggest myth about true Republicans: they look down on working people and are greedy and can only win by lying and cheating. The reason why liberals think all rich people think this way is for 2 reasons:
1. Liberals who have wealth do not respect people. This is general and does not apply to 100%, but definintely more than 50%. Trust fund babies are generally liberal because they did not earn it and therefore do not respect it. They have had everything handed to them and do not respect people. Then you have the Soros of the world who are anti-Christian and attack anyway they can any type of Christian values. There are also too many Democrats and liberals who acquire a high income. There is this me vs. them mentality. I see it with doctors, lawyers all the time. They have this arrogance where they think they are better than others because they make a certain amount of $, have a certain title, or live in a certain place.
2. You have the typical liberal and false ideal that wealth is finite. Liberals believe this and that wealth can only be taken, not earned. I personally know a lot of very wealthy people. Everyone understands they cannot earn it by themselves and they understand that people make the world go around. Wealth can be created and it is not stolen from the poor. This is another excuse of why someone cannot succeed. This point shows the victim thinking of liberals.
I own a pretty successful business that I built on my own without any financial backing. I met all my customers by cold calling. I worked with them and helped them develop their business. I earned their trust and by working together we both profit. You never see this mentality in the entertainment business because people like me do not associate with capitalist hating liberals. I do not hang around with people who are that negative. I cannot stand them and the feelings are mututal. It is business people like me who take all the risk (90% of businesses fail) and work our tails off, only to have liberals like you come in and regulate us to death, tax us to redistribute our income to people who did not earn it.
You are a bitter person and it is sad that you live in a free country. How about moving to Iran? It seems you would like it there.

He is, indeed. He was shown attending a Republican Party meeting in episode #108: "Sideshow Bob Roberts".

Yes he is! This is evident because he is the CEO and head of the nuclear power plant in which he pays his workers crap and he keeps almost all the money that's profit. And don't male Republicans usually hate gays, but end up having gay sex? That's what is going to happen eventually with his assistant.

Let's see, Mr. Burns employs many people, has a productive business, earned his wealth, and is an entreprenuer. So yeah, he could be a Republican.
LOL. Are you another dirtbag Democrat?
