Will someone please put Dick Cheney in a Toyota and send him back to the bunker? The former Veep and puppet-master was sounding off yesterday with the talking heads taking aim at his successor and Barry-O regarding their stand on fighting the war on terror.
The pot shots come from the man whose “Mission Accomplished” proved to be a premature ejaculation as was his famous quote, telling all who would listen that Iraq bound U.S troops would be greeted as “liberators” in the streets of Baghdad.
Sensing the plunge in value of his speaker’s fees to less than a quarter of the right’s new darling, Sarah Palin, the big Dick is trying his best at revisionist history. Scolding Joey-B via the airwaves he said the progress in Iraq and Afghanistan made during the past year is deserving of a big “thank you” to Bush Jr. and the previous administration.
Credit to jumping Joe for getting his digs back, as most pundits scored the W for the plagiarist from Delaware. In a particularly juicy jibe, Joe chided the Dick-meister, noting he’d been sidelined by his own boss for the last year of Bush’s tenure. He said Cheney had been “misinformed or was misinforming” in an attempt to rewrite history.
To think that this dude was once a heart-beat away from the football is pretty scary. Maybe he wants his job back at Halliburton?
