VP Cheney gave a rare non-Fox News interview the other day. The interviewer from ABC stated that more than 2/3 of the American people now say the price in blood and treasure (my words, not the interviewer's or those of the poll---the actual word choice was "cost") of the war in Iraq was not worth it.
Cheney's quick...and reflexive reply was "So?" Like a petulant boy.
That's so typical of the arrogance of this man. Of this administration.
And how did Cheney spend his day on the 5th anniversary of the start of this war of theirs? Fishing from the deck of a yacht owned by a wealthy sheik. Dicky knows who butters his bread. It's right in character though...he had "other priorities" when our kids were being ripped to shreds in Vietnam as well.
I'm surprised he didn't spend it wearing a toga and dancing on the south lawn of the White House while playing a fiddle. Scumbag.
==================
And our fine Prez-o-dent? He used family influence to get into the TX Air National Guard to escape the draft...and I think he's feeling regret over that.
Not regret over having missed the bugs and heat and danger...but the ability to reminisce.
"I must say, I'm a little envious," Bush said. "If I were slightly younger and not employed here, I think it would be a fantastic experience to be on the front lines of helping this young democracy succeed."
"It must be exciting for you ... in some ways romantic, in some ways, you know, confronting danger. You're really making history, and thanks," Bush said.
Envious. Yeah...sure. You had your chance but you chose to duck & cover along with three quarters of the Dallas Cowboys players and other assorted rich kids and connected folks. Douchebag.
