Welcome to the second edition of the asshat awards. This award is presented by What the Blog?! The theme for this edition is asshats in the news. So without farther adieu I present to you the asshat of the week (actually he could win the title for asshat of the year)....Mr. Dick Cheney.
Where to start? Most recently his former top aide, Scooter Libby, has taken the fall for him so we don't learn how high the orders went to out CIA agent Valerie Plume. If Libby hd admited to it than the next question would have been under who's order? Than the vice-president might have found himself having to give testimony. Which probably wouldn't have fazed him, I'm sure this man has no problems lying to a federal prosecutor.
But Cheney has many more sins to answer for. If there is a true puppet master behind the inept presidency of W it is this man. Cheney manuvered things so we would invade Iraq. His former protegee was Donald Rumsfield.
Cheney's ties to Haliburton are well known. His ties to big oil and big business are just as well known. If there's a buck to be made Cheney is going to be involved. He wants to call anyone that disagrees with him a traitor but than is more than happy to send inferior equipment to our troops overseas.
Ties to countries like Saudi Arabi are still questionable. Cheney is the frontman for Bush's war on terror, he is out there telling everyone how terrible the world is and if it wasn't for him and the President how bad shape the country would be in. All the while driving us off a cliff.
