cheney named asshole of the Year
(CNN) - Hey may have exited the national stage nearly one year ago, but former Vice President Dick Cheney has been named "Conservative of the Year" by the conservative Human Events magazine for his ardent and continuous criticisms of the Obama administration's national security policies.

"What Cheney is saying, primarily on foreign policy, defense and anti-terrorism, makes sense to more and more American citizens growing increasingly worried by the Obama Administration's insouciance when U.S. national interests are threatened, both at home and abroad," former U.N. ambassador John Bolton writes for the magazine.

"Since the only real, long-term way to deal with persuasive positions on substantive policy matters is to refute them with sounder policy arguments, it is not hard to understand why the Obama White House is near panic," Bolton also writes. "Where are they going to go to find a better policy inside his administration?"

3. Shows the sorry state of conservatism.
They are in complete denial of the black hole they left America in. In my book, conservatives should apologize for the bush presidency before they blabber about anything else.

5. Conservatives sure are un-American.
Cheney has done more to destroy America than Stalin and Hitler, combined.

6. "insouciance"
As in not doing anything about Al-Qiaeda until after Sept. 11, 2001 and then attacking the wrong country as a response? I don't think so.

10. This is an insult to assholes all over the world
Cheney would more specifically be akin to the gas that passes the holy sphincter.
