worst day of his life

Cheney - Never mind America's teenaged military enduring horrors in Iraq, Dick Cheney had the worst day of his life

It is rather fortunate for Republicans like Dick Cheney that, the Party has its very own propaganda "news" network. That way, whenever a sociopath like Cheney invades a country based on false intelligence, or shoots his hunting partner, he has somewhere to turn knowing they won't ask the tough questions. Also, having FOX in the Republican Party provides people like Cheney an opportunity to make themselves out to be the victim of their own folly. It wasn't pathetic enough that Dick Cheney tried to make himself the victim after having shot his buddy Whittington, but his excuse was borderline outrageous.

While fielding typical FOX Republican News softball questions, Cheney said, "The image of him falling is something I'll never ever be able to get out of my mind...I fired, and there's Harry falling. It was, I'd have to say, one of the worst days of my life at that moment."

Here is to crocodile tears Mister Cheney! As it is Olympic season, we will score Dick a perfect "10" on the, "I'm the real victim here -- worst day of my life" insincere pity-pot drivel. However, for sheer content Cheney receives a big fat zero! Here is why:

Dick Cheney, because he is an incompetent and unsafe hunter, accidentally shot someone with BIRDSHOT. For this, the nation should have pity on him. "The image of him falling is something I'll never ever be able to get out of my mind," Cheney said. Well, imagine the now more than 300,000 mostly teenaged kids, Dick and George sent off to war.

If Cheney thinks it was hard to see someone fall after being shot by BIRDSHOT, imagine the string of seemingly endless "worst days" of life those teenagers are having in Iraq. Day-in-day-out having to watch their buddies blown to smithereens by IEDs, AK-47s, and whatever other creative means Iraq's insurgents can contrive. Kids, just barely 19-years-old picking bits of their friends' brains out of their clothing, pulling the charred carcasses of buddies out of burning vehicles, and helplessly watching as limbs fly through the air like some kind of macabre joke being played upon them. Yet, Cheney has the temerity to show his face on FOX Republican News, seeking pity after shooting a friend with BIRDSHOT? Pathetic!

Suck it up Cheney -- your little experience is nothing compared to the hell you and Bush have sentenced America's youthful military to, in Iraq.
