The Empire Strikes Back

After a week in which Howard Dean, the dem's pitbull, took potshots at helpless Republicans, somebody final had the verve and gusto to fight fire with fire.

Calling Howard Dean "over the top," Vice President Dick Cheney decried Dean's insensitive and inflammatory comments, adding that Dean is "not the kind of individual you want to have representing your political party."

Damn skippy, Dick.

"I've never been able to understand his appeal. Maybe his mother loved him, but I've never met anybody who does. He's never won anything, as best I can tell," Cheney said in the interview with Fox News Channel.

Sure, some of those wussy liberals might whine that Cheney took the low road by bringing Dean's mother into his heroic bashing of the Vermont pansy. But seriously, who among us could call the Dickster anything other than an honorable, decent man?

God speed, VP Cheney!
