VicePresident.US: Lying in wait http://www.vicepresident.us/ Your source for all things Vice Presidential en Copyright 2007 Sat, 27 Jan 2007 16:17:34 -0800 http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/?v=3.2 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Vice Presidents Day 2007 (Reborn) We at VicePresident.us have been remiss in our writing. It is time this year to get back on the horse and hunt, er start writing again. We are considering adding some political thought instead of merely humor. For today, we are going to start with some reminders and move into more serious business in the coming weeks.

Vice Presidents Day 2007

Lest we forget, February 11th is approaching. Of course you remember the significance of February 11th, don't you? Yes, that will be the anniversary of when our Vice President (remember his name?) Dick Cheney shot a man.

Who did he shoot?

In case you forgot, here is the new $10 bill we proposed last year:

Vice Presidents Day 2007

So write to your Senators and Congresspeople and ask them to make February 11th (or the Monday nearest the date) Vice Presidents Day. Let's honor the men who sit a heartbeat away from the Presidency!

You know how hard it is to wait around. Let's see, the rest of us get stuck in doctors' offices, car dealership or barber and are stuck with stale coffee, no food and old magazines. The Cheney's can't have that. No, not for royalty!

While we are outraged by the entire memo, it is Mrs. Cheney's choice of Perrier, yes Perrier, FRENCH water. She drinks water to support those terrorist-loving people. The French come as close to supporting Al Qaeda as any non-Muslim country.

Here's the list:

Here's a serious one... Condy Rice has said she wants to be NFL Commissioner... OK, so there is a joke in this. We lied.

Anyway, so Condy wants to be NFL Commissioner (but is now saying that it's not the right time). Could this be a great chance for President Bush to replace his top cabinet posts? Why would he do this? Well, he wouldn't because that would mean he would have to admit defeat, or at least mistakes, or at least admit that someone else could do something better.

For those of you familiar only with Doonesbury, the Boondocks, La Cucaracha, et al, there is a single conservative comic strip in the daily funnies. (If you know more, send them our way.)

You've been reading the left's view of the Cheney shooting on these pages for a few weeks. What about the right? We haven't been ignoring the right. It seems that the right didn't think that this was funny. (Note: We would call them conservatives but the US Republican Party is not conservative at all. We get the choice of tax-and-spend Democrats or tax-cut-and-spend Republicans. The Republicans have more pork in their last few budgets than Ted Kennedy dreamed of for any BarBQ he planned.)

One of our readers ound this one at Shaw's Law. Sing along!

Cheney's Got a Gun
(Lyrics by Tom Feeley & Sam Einhorn )
to the tune of Aerosmith's "Janey's Got a Gun"

Cheney's got a gun
Cheney's got a gun
He peppered Whittington
A heart attack ain’t no fun
What did Dick Cheney do?
How did he not see you?

This one is from Am I Right and Karavans.

Cheney's got a gun, Cheney's got a gun

Reputation's undone

What did Dick Cheney do?
He shot his pal, yes it's true...

This one comes from Flowgo:

Old Cheney went a-hunting
A-hunting he did go
He shot his best friend in the face
"Oh crap", he said, "Oh no!"

Dum, dum, dum, Cheney what have you done
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound of my gun
Dum, dum, dum, Cheney what have you done
Dum, dum, dum, it's the sound, it's the sound...
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah....

It will. They all do. But you know it's not dying down when the New Yorker puts you on its cover. OUCH!

I'm so shocked by this that I have decided to dedicate today's entry to these folks.

You know you've messed up when you see the comics (not political cartoons) making fun of you.

[On a side note, there is a billboard near my house for a Boondocks TV show. It says that it is at 11PM but neglects to state the channel it is on. That's not the most effective advertising.]

He found this one at Fark. We're moving this to the top of the queue as it is bipartisan mockery. We don't hold anything against either party, we think both partieshave sold us out.
