NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)—In a Thursday appearance on the Fox News Channel, former Vice-President Dick Cheney said that it was “no fair” that President Obama gets to bomb Syria.
“I’m envious as hell,” he told Fox’s Sean Hannity. “That was on my bucket list.”
Asked if he had any advice for the President on bombing Syria, Cheney said, “Just enjoy it. It doesn’t get any better than this.”
The former Vice-President struck a philosophical note at the conclusion of his interview with Hannity. “Look, I had a good run,” he said. “I got to bomb Afghanistan, and I got to do it to Iraq—twice. But to see someone finally get to bomb Syria and it’s not me? I’d be lying if I said that didn’t hurt like hell.”
Edit: satire indeed,.. but, the fact of the matter is that this man is still a psycho.
I love Dick Cheney. I wish he had run for prez. I hope he lives to be a hundred.
What's I think is funny is that Obama is a warmongering Nazi and the right still hates him because he's black.
Cheney is a very successful business man.
Very successful business men are usually pscyhos; http://www.forbes.com/sites/victorl...bing-link-between-psychopathy-and-leadership/
And, we have plenty of other examples where very successful business men treat and view those 'below them' as subhuman.

If you can't win then make shit up seems to be the norm with Obozo's sinking poll numbers.
it's satire...
Yep the article fooled me. Yet I would not be surprised if Cheney says things like this behind closed doors.
Me too. I love how he drives normal people away from voting GOP each time he opens his mouth.

http://mises.org/daily/5765/Hitlers-EconomicsIn the 1930s, Hitler was widely viewed as just another protectionist central planner who recognized the supposed failure of the free market and the need for nationally guided economic development. Proto-Keynesian socialist economist Joan Robinson wrote that "Hitler found a cure against unemployment before Keynes was finished explaining it."
What were those economic policies? He suspended the gold standard, embarked on huge public-works programs like autobahns, protected industry from foreign competition, expanded credit, instituted jobs programs, bullied the private sector on prices and production decisions, vastly expanded the military, enforced capital controls, instituted family planning, penalized smoking, brought about national healthcare and unemployment insurance, imposed education standards, and eventually ran huge deficits. The Nazi interventionist program was essential to the regime's rejection of the market economy and its embrace of socialism in one country.
Such programs remain widely praised today, even given their failures. They are features of every "capitalist" democracy. Keynes himself admired the Nazi economic program, writing in the foreword to the German edition to the General Theory: "[T]he theory of output as a whole, which is what the following book purports to provide, is much more easily adapted to the conditions of a totalitarian state, than is the theory of production and distribution of a given output produced under the conditions of free competition and a large measure of laissez-faire."
