Perhaps, just so we're clear on the matter, the nation should engage in a spirited game of "count the years of war began with Cheney" before giving the man the front-page spot in the headlines.
I know that Richard Cheney isn’t news,
Or news that’s very worthy to compare
With Talibani movement, or the flair
With which the Secret Service sings the blues.
And yet he’s front and center, to declaim
The utter and unmitigated wreck
That is Obama’s tenure. If a speck
Within the eye of any who’d defame
Another with a timber is a sign
That he should not be speaking, Cheney, cease.
We’re still awaiting freedom and release
From warring in Afghanistan. Align
Your party to the fighting with a cheer,
But I do wish you both would disappear.
