And, you are right, our leaders should set a good example. But, Cheney is like most of the rest of us.
I challenge you...if you, AUH2OY2K, had been openly accused of letting the young men and women of this country for the sole benefit of lining your own and your buddy's pockets, how generous would you be with your patience? How would you react if you were, EVERY DAY, lied upon and about? How would you react when the ONLY thing that people haven't accused VP Cheney of doing is killing puppies and eating them (though, actually, I'm sure you can find that somewhere on DU)?
Stop, please.
You aren't familiar with having to deal with this type of criticism and I am sure that you might not react how you are describing either.
Please, dismount the high horse.
Very well said!

Apparently, below is an demoSCUM image of the President eating children (based off of a sculpture called "Saturn Devouring one of his Children").
