I know. I saw you quoting the guy who said this:
"In the closing statement of the vice presidential debate, Dick Cheney unveiled the terrifying prospect of terrorists smuggling nuclear weapons into major American cities inside Meals on Wheels wagons."
and I said "ouch". Can't be pleasant for you.

Why's that? Cheney scaring the shit out of us isn't pleasant, I agree, but it's what the man
does. Opponents, pundits, independents, supporters -- doesn't matter who they are, what the venue is, or what the topic is. Cheney's role is to evoke images of a big, fiery, painful, excruciating death. If you vote for Kerry.
As an aside, TDS did a bit on Cheney a while back where they quoted part of his stump speech to
an audience of his supporters. Something like "The next time we get hit, it is likely that the death toll will not be in the thousands, but in the hundreds of thousands."
Stewart punch line: "The VP then said, 'OK, who wants cake?'"
