Cheney to Purple Heart Vets:US Will Not Relent

Big Dick... wherever do you get the balls to say these things: Speaking at the 73rd nat'l convention of the Military Order of the Purple Heart, the vice pres cited the darkest days of the American Revolution, when the war was going badly and ragtag rebels were ready to go home until George Washington rallied them. "They stayed in the fight, and America won the war," he said. "From that day to this, our country has always counted on the bravest among us to answer the call of duty." He also declared that the US "will not relent" in the war in Iraq and will hunt down insurgents there "one at a time if necessary." Oh.. My.. God. The nerve of that 5 time Vietnam deferment fuck to even attend an event with actual veterans is bad enough (especially after wearing Purple band-aids at the RNC last yr to compare Kerry's war wounds to boo-boos), but to even suggest that this war in Iraq is comparable to the Revolutionary War is beyond the pale (b/c let's face it, if Bush & Co had been leading that war, we'd all be singing God Save the Queen right now), AND THEN to say that we will hunt down insurgents 1 at a time if necessary is pretty easy to do when it isn't your blood being shed & it isn't your money being spent to pay for this war, but given that he is a war profiteer, what else should we expect?
