What "war crimes" did Cheney commit? Last fall it was so hilarious to see you Leftists fall over each other praising Colon Powell when he endorsed your Dear Leader. While conveniently forgetting that he has also been charged with war crimes in a suit at The Hague. I guess Powell was "rehabilitated" solely by his act of backing the empty suit. Hallucinogenic.

But otherwise, not that bad thinking on his feet. Maybe he's actually getting better at it. This is cause for concern and perhaps even alarm not amusement.
