SOMEONE WANTS DICK CHENEY DEAD!

Yes someone and no it's not Hillary Clinton...Taliban tried to "assassinate" the Vice-President by having a suicide bomber attack the main gate of a US military base. Sadly 23 people were killed in the event. How depressing. Don't the Taliban know they are going about this the wrong way...all they need is to find some crusty old white man to go hunting with Cheney on one of his trips. I mean didn't Cheney himself already almost kill of his hunting buddies??? It's perfect.


BAGRAM, Afghanistan — In what the Taliban claimed was an assassination attempt, a suicide bomber attacked the main gate of a U.S. military base Tuesday within earshot of Vice President Dick Cheney. The explosion killed 23 people, including two Americans, and delivered a propaganda blow that undercut the U.S. military and the weak Afghan government it supports.

The bomber struck about 10 a.m., and U.S. military officials declared a "red alert" at the sprawling Bagram Air Base while Cheney was rushed to a bomb shelter. Cheney, who had been stranded at the base overnight by a snowstorm, met with President Hamid Karzai in the capital before heading back to the United States via the Gulf state of Oman.

"I heard a loud boom," Cheney told reporters aboard Air Force Two en route to Oman. "The Secret Service came in and told me there had been an attack on the main gate."

I love the government statement saying that there was no way they could have known he was there and it was pure coincidence. Sure, just keep telling yourselves that...
