Presidents Day 2006
News Flash: Vice President Cheney shot a man on February 11, 2006, a day that will live in infamy!
Yes, Cheney shot a man. [Recently Jon Lovitz was on Sit Down Comedy with David Steinberg. Lovitz did an entire Woody Allen skit where he said "I shot a moose" exactly as Woody Allen did. Please use that same voice to say that Cheney shot a man. Listen to the podcast.]
News Flash: Launch of VicePresident.US on February 20, 2006
Today is the official launch of VicePresident.US... oh, and what a coincidence, it also happens to be Presidents Day.
How did we get here?
4 years ago (yes, that is an important amount of time for a Vice President) we registered the domain vicepresident.us and had no idea what to do with it. We knew that we wanted to set up a site to mock Vice Presidents in general and whoever was living at Number One Observatory Circle. The voters do such a good job picking men who are easy to mock (or is it the President or the parties... it doesn't matter does it?)
Some say that the Vice Presidency is the most underrated job in government. Others say that the Vice President does nothing but wait for the President to die, dare we say, lie in wait? We decided to take a look and see throughout history (yeah but more in the present), what does the VP really do?
VicePresident.US will continue reporting on this story as long as it is newsworthy. We're going to be here for a long time to keep you posted on current news and historical facts about the Vice President of the US... especially if it's funny.
Our current Vice President (quick, name him!) Dick Cheney has been making it too hard to resist. [Note: We are centrists and plan to go on for years making fun of current and past Vice Presidents so while Blues can revel in the site now, we'll make sure that there is humor for Reds as well.]
Come on... he shot a man.
Here's what makes VicePresident.US so great... we can say things like "We don't want Cheney to Vice President Us." In this case, we don't want him to shoot us while hunting. Let's say he were to out a undercover CIA operative (he wouldn't really do that, would he?), again we don't want him to Vice President Us. Send us your thoughts on who has been Vice Presidented.
