Mouthpiece Shoots Cheney

Let’s cut to the chase. I’ve heard most of the comedians and read most of the articles on this one (albeit quickly), and noone’s asked what would have happened if it all happened...THE OTHER WAY AROUND.

The smell of privilege runs throughout most of the reports, but we all know the unspoken message: They can shoot us, but we can’t shoot them.

What if he had killed the guy? Forget that he’s a high-power rep for The Powers.

Reverse it all. Make ’em this or that. Make ’em YOU. What would happen to you?

We all know. There’s nowhere else to go with this once the laughter dies down. We have to lie down with The Truth...each and every night. Yes?

We have to invite them on a hunt with us.

That sounds delicious, but we all know that’s not gonna happen. So...what do you do, my little flailing, failing quails? Hunt through The Thickets for wooden Cheney timelines, easy lines? [1]

You are tinier than the smallest bobwhite. And the gallinaceous are absolutely not getting together any time soon with any kind of force.

Are you ready to get out of The Woods? Or are you...?
