Cheney biographer: I think he does like that Darth Vader image

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,291391,00.html

<snip>

COLMES: All right. Does he like the Darth Vader image?

HAYES: You know, that's a great question. I think he does like that Darth Vader image. And there are things that he's done that seem almost meant to cultivate it.

He was asked about this in 2004 by a reporter from USA Today. And they asked him what about your reputation? Do you care that you're low on the polls and that you're thought of this way? And he said “You know, do I like being thought of as the evil genius in the hole? It's a nice way to operate,” is what he said.

2. And if he could
strangle a critic with just a thought, he'd be happy to do it.

I saw that he's going to be on Larry King taking "hard questions." :rofl:

Like: "How are you feeling?"

3. He cultivates this image
in the same way that Hollywood film fan Osama bin Laden cultivated his 9/11 image as a freedom-fighting Luke Skywalker who just blew up the Death Star.

they're both off their respective nuts.
