Quote of the Day

It seems we all owe everyone in the Bush Administration a big apology. We've made sport of the poor sons of bitches for years now and it seems we've done so unfairly. See I was operating under the misapprehension that they were running the country from January 2001 to January 2009, as I'm sure you were as well, which caused me to believe that they were the cause of everything the government touched turning to some form of exceptionally noxious pig excrement. It turns out they weren't even in office at all. I know it sounds confusing, but perhaps I'm not explaining it right. Let Dick Cheney explain.

But Cheney rejected any suggestion that Obama had to decide on a new strategy for Afghanistan because the one employed by the previous administration failed.

Cheney was asked if he thinks the Bush administration bears any responsibility for the disintegration of Afghanistan because of the attention and resources that were diverted to Iraq. “I basically don’t,” he replied without elaborating.

See! The only other logical explanation is that someone else was in charge, otherwise it would simply be ludicrous to claim that you were in no way responsible for the results of a war you presided over for eight fucking years.

As for who is at fault for things like letting bin Laden waltz away? I don't know, as per tradition we'll have to find the nearest available goat to blame it on. But it definately wasn't the Bush Administration.
