Dick Cheney is a motherfuckin' obfuscatin' douchebag
As the header indicates, the Cheney Exception is now in effect granting us leave to express ourselves in the bluntest of terms.
We stumbled upon the Hulu link and thought we'd see if the appearance was what we had heard. It was every bit as bad as had been reported and then some. Venues such as ABC or Politico, that give Cheney an under examined opportunity to spout his shit, ought to be given some kind of credit for a contribution to his legal defense fund.
This lyin' lump of a shit sits there with this stern 'Gosh, why the hell can't you see that I'm talkin' serious shit here?' demeanor while spinning some totally twisted, corkscrewed ironic attempt at saving his ass from the judgment of history and the possibilities of legal or political decisions that might restrict his travel plans. The Repugs have this penchant for a stupidity that grows from some silly righteous notion that the mouthing of vacuous platitudes while attacking their political foes can cover some of the grossest stupidity and misjudgment seen in hundreds of years: A storied tradition dating from the 90's right through to Sarah Palin's notes on her hand while attacking Obama's use of a teleprompter (and not one of the idiots around her has the intellectual stones to say, 'Gosh, that's mighty stupid').
Just at what point of absurdity does the whole movement have to reach before there is an awareness that if you have to cook the books in order to make your case, that it might be time to rethink some things. Cheney and his understudy, Shrub, with PDB's and red lights flashing, sat on their hands as Bin Laden made his moves: A righteous blindness that grew from a belief that Clinton's attacks on Al Qaeda were only because the Repugs were so righteously attacking him. Every Clinton strike was rooted in Monica but citizens should now trust these fucking idiots to be in vigilant defense of the country. They were too stupid to see this before but should be trusted and covered because they invoke the highest calling of honor and duty to country?
The Repug assertions that war granted them leave to fuck up and be monsters is one self-serving pile of horseshit. Cheney's assertion that he speaks out to defend the careers of lawyers and folks in the CIA as a matter of duty just makes you wanna gag. And the silly-ass notion that his performance gives him some greater ability to judge our treatment of this threat is laughable.
Just one further example of the hubris that allows them to think they are entitled to lecture anyone.
