Hurricane Cheney

Cheney on the road snarling, sneering, indignant:

"The president and I cannot prevent certain politicians from losing their memory, or their backbone — but we’re not going to sit by and let them rewrite history,” said Cheney, a principal architect of the war and a focus of Democratic allegations the administration misrepresented intelligence on Iraq’s weapons program.

Cheney said the suggestion Bush or any member of the administration misled Americans before the war “is one of the most dishonest and reprehensible charges ever aired in this city.”

Cheney at the end of his career, marching on, applying all the lessons he learned from Nixon and then some. He pulled the strings, massaged the intel, loved Curveball too much.

Now he has agreed to headline Tom Delay's fundraiser for the defense.

Whatever else you say about him, the Dark Lord is a force of nature.
