Alan Grayson: Who Wrote The Introduction To Cheney's Book -- Mephistopheles? (VIDEO)http://tpmlivewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/01/alan-grayson-who-wrote-the-introduction-to-cheneys-book----mephistopheles.php?ref=mp

Appearing just now on the Ed Schultz show on MSNBC, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) said that former Vice President Dick Cheney's attacks against President Obama are just a ploy to increase Cheney's book sales -- and rhetorically asked whether the Devil himself had a hand in the book.

"You know, honestly I think he's just trying to prime his book tour, his upcoming book tour," said Grayson. "He got $2 million to write about his memories, and he's trying to stay in the public eye to push sales for his book. That's what I think."

"I'm wondering, though, who's doing the introduction to his book? Is it Mephistopheles? I don't know -- maybe it's Satan."

Grayson also responded to the frequent Republican attacks against him: "I am attacked by them all the time. But as Franklin Roosevelt said, I welcome their hatred."

2. Hilarious
We laughed at the "Mephistopheles or Satan" punchline. Good timing.

Maybe it's the guy Cheney shot in the face ("I shot you in the face! You owe me. Do it, or I'll shoot you again. <insert Jon Stewart "heh heh heh" here>"

WHO is going to buy Dick Cheney's book? Other than mass wholesale buying to lie about the sales numbers.

6. Do you think Satan would really hang around with someone as evil as Cheney?
I kind of get the impression that Satan likes to be the most evil guy in the room.

10. That's why I think Mephistopheles wrote the introduction
Cheney's already given Satan his advance.
