One thing I'm thankful for...
...well, two things:
1. Presidential term limits
2. The current VP isn't attempting to fill the shallow shoes of the current debacle of a President we've tolerated for the last 8 years.
Why am I thankful for these things? This is why, but most especially:
When asked how that assessment comports with recent polls that show about two-thirds of Americans say the fight in Iraq is not worth it, Cheney replied, "So?"
"You don't care what the American people think?" Raddatz asked the vice president.
"You can't be blown off course by polls," said Cheney, who is currently on a tour of the Middle East. "This president is very courageous and determined to go the course. There has been a huge fundamental change and transformation for the better. That's a huge accomplishment."
You have to be fucking kidding me. Seriously. While I shouldn't be so surprised, it still does shock me just how distant from the sentiment of the American people this administration has been for so long.
