Kathryn Jean Lopez's Idolatry
...I get enthused by the prospect of a Cheney in the White House for another four years.Even if only a quarter of the stories, articles, interviews, books, anecdotes, and direct quotes were honest insights into who Dick Cheney really is, how could a human being write that?
Go ahead and discount all of the above. Cheney flat-out sucks as a politician. He has what can charitably be described as a terrible visage. The only support he rallies is from die-hard fanatics. If anyone outside his ideological bubble respect him, it's the respect one gives to an arch-nemesis for managing to survive so long (and so many health issues).
I just don't get it.
