Taking to the airwaves this past week, former Vice President Dick Cheney expressed his disgust that the world won’t end nearly as soon as he had hoped, due mainly to the election of Barack Obama as president. “We in the Bush administration did all we could to bring about Armageddon: starting two wars, putting more Americans into poverty, yielding science to religious wackos, subverting the Constitution, making America the biggest debtor nation on the face of the planet, slashing wages and living standards for the working class, allowing North Korea to develop nuclear weapons and the missiles to mount them on, doubling the number of Americans without health care, funneling hundreds of billions to amoral scum like Halliburton, KBR and Blackwater, outing an active undercover CIA operative….. and then just when hope was all but extinguished along comes this guy who went from food stamps to college graduate to stir up the worker bees, making them believe in America again. And I can’t even shoot him in the face because he’s not a friend of mine. I tell you it’s enough to pucker my titanium heart valves!”
