Charlatan Cheney’s Wrong Yet Again

Quoth the former VP, Dick “Charlatan” Cheney, on a radio show Sunday, “I’m fearful that we’ve gotten far enough away now after 14 years, far enough away from 9/11, that too many people out there have forgotten what happened and what it’s like when it does happen.”

Charl, perhaps I can set your mind at ease. We will never forget that handiwork of the Feds. Never. We’ll also strive to enlighten those Americans who still consider you and your fellow politicians harmless or even beneficial: we will tell them instead that the death, destruction, devastation and deception of 9/11 is precisely what government is all about.

The context for Charl’s “fear” (hmmm. We all have them, of course, but ol’ Dick’s is odd, don’t you think? Sorta like Al “Fats” Gore’s “memory” that his mother crooned “Look for the Union Label” to him when he was 27) was the Patriot Act’s expiration and resulting suspension for a day or so of one of the NSA’s dozens, perhaps hundreds, of eavesdropping and surveillance programs. Naturally, Charl joined the chorus of condemnation against Sen. Rand Paul. Now, anyone who loves liberty has quarrels with Rand, but gracious, he fought hard against the NSA. Let’s credit him for that. And it is oh,-so-tiresomely typical that when a politician finally does the right thing, DC’s sewer vehemently denounces him.

The Revolution against these enemies of all mankind can’t come soon enough. How deliciously ironic that the State is our best recruiter!
