We're Receiving A Broadcast Signal From The Death Star, Sir

So that you didn't have to slog through it, Dick Cheney's interview this morning on FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace was everything you expected it to be: enough spin in the FOX echo chamber to pin a blue whale to the side of the wall.

Wallace noted that following Cheney’s interview on NBC’s The Today Show, the network showed a protester holding a sign saying, “Torture Is a Crime: Investigate Cheney.”

“Investigate Cheney,” Cheney repeated with a smile.

I somehow doubt that if Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama were speaking they would have taken the shot and then suddenly a person with a sign would have been putting their picture up,” Wallace declared. “Do you think there is a liberal bias in the mainstream media?” Wallace asked.

I think there probably is,” Cheney replied. “But I don’t spend time worry being it. I think that those of us right-thinking conservatives find that there are a lot of outlets out there now in the media, on the Internet that give us ample opportunity for our points of view to get across and heard.”

And yes, the entire interview was an opportunity for Chris Wallace to dispense absolution for Cheney's sins before the Church of the Almighty Talking Point.   Really, Cheney's war crimes and torture weren't anything wrong, and you're not a "right-thinking" American patriot if you believe otherwise.  Only dirty hippies would want to investigate our wonderful former VP, and America is better than that.  Isn't it wonderful to have FOX around to set the record straight, America?

Straight to hell, that is.  On, and Cheney wants to let the Left know you should have gone with Hillary.  I'm sure he has your best interests at heart.
