Welcome to get Dick Cheney season, folks. Waxman officially ushered it in by publicizing the Executive Order flap (which made more news than a racially charged mob killing in Texas) just in time for today's big four-part WaPo blog expose about the secrety, evil powers of the Veep and how most everyone hates him. Now granted there are certainly a few questions we need answered about his role in this, that or the other but does no one else see the irony between Waxman's letter and the WaPo's huge expose, coming as the courts and Bush ponder the fate of Libby? It gives the impression that more than a few jaws have been flapping at more than a few cocktail parties inside the Beltway of late. Or that gasp, yours truly is wrong.
Not surprisingly the Huffpo was steering their readers to the Cheney stories this morning, which is fine, but some of the intended consequences were already evident. Near the Cheney links was a story about the conviction of Saddam's cousin "Chemical Ali", who unlike today's source of derision was a true man of death and evil...depending on one's relative perspective of course:
Modern liberal commenters--the soft, ugly underbelly of modern liberalism. Yeah, dog bites man but wait, man bites dog! On the same thread:
- Save some ROPE for the IDIOT DUBYA and "DEAD EYE" Dick Cheney!
- Ditto. When will punishment be meted out to Bush and Cheney and their crew of fleeing rats? They have been responsible fo rmore death and destruction than Saddam and his crew.
- Could we throw in Cheney and make this event a double ?
- on second thought if Bush is also thrown in, humanity will win a trifecta.
aaahhh, more killing to show that killing is wrong. makes a whole lotta sense.There's hope for humanity after all.
UPDATE! 6/27/07
Seems the OVP has backed off their claim that Cheney was presiding over the 4th branch of government. As Yoda once said, tell me, why are we here?
