Old, senile. He probably believes it himself by now. He was an incompetent, immoral prick before and now he is a senile, incompetent, immoral prick.

Seems like when Cheney is locked and loaded people get shot in the face.

So when do we load Cheney up into the catapult?

Considering his "Terrorism Task Force" that he was supposed to head...

"Less well known, but no less embarrassing, was Cheney's leadership of the pre-9/11 anti-terrorism task force. In spring 2001, rather than back congressional efforts to implement the findings of the Hart-Rudman commission, Cheney opted to spearhead his own group, to put the administration's stamp on whatever reforms occurred. But the task force did almost nothing for four months until terrorists struck on September 11." <a href="http://www.washingtonmonthl..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/features/2001/02...">http://www.washingtonmonthl...

<i>"...we were always there, <b>locked and loaded</b>..."</i>

Cheney hasn't earned the privilege of using army jargon.

I'm sure he meant to say "after Dubya and I failed to prevent the worst terrorist attack in the history of the universe".

Here is what kept Dubya frozen in that classroom that day while our fellow citizens were falling from the sky...

THE PET GOAT

A girl got a pet goat. She liked to go running with her pet goat. She played with her pet goat in her house. She played with her pet goat in her yard.

But the goat did some things that made the girl's dad mad. The goat ate things. He ate cans and he ate canes. He ate pans and he ate panes. He even ate capes and caps.

One day her dad said, "That goat must go. He eats too many things."

The girl said, "Dad, if you let the goat stay with us, I will see that he stops eating all those things."

He dads said, "We will try it."

So the goat stayed and the girl made him stop eating cans and canes and caps and capes.

But one day a car robber came to the girl's house. He saw a big red car near the house and said, "I will steal that car."

He ran to the car and started to open the door.

The girl and the goat were playing in the backyard. They did not see the car robber.

THE GOAT STOPS THE ROBBER (next story in the series)

A girl had a pet goat. Her dad had a red car.

A car robber was going to steal her dad's car. The girl and her goat were playing in the back yard.

Just then the goat stopped playing. He saw the robber. He bent his head down and started to run for the robber. The robber was bending over the seat of the car. The goat hit him with his sharp horns. The car robber went flying.

The girl's dad ran out of the house. He grabbed the robber. "You were trying to steal my car," he yelled.

The girl said, "But my goat stopped him."

"Yes," her dad said. "That goat saved my car."

The car robber said, "Something hit me when I was trying to steal that car."

The girl said, "My goat hit you."

The girl hugged the goat. Her dad said, "That goat can stay with us. And he can eat all the cans and canes and caps and capes he wants."

The girl smiled. Her goat smiled. Her dad smiled. But the car robber did not smile. He said, "I am sore."

They were locked and loaded to not particularly care about where the guy who actually planned and financed 9/11 was.

Look. I know liberals have a hard time understanding this, so as a reformed republican, let me help:

Sometimes, when you get angry, you just need to shoot someone. It is best to shoot the person or people you are angry at, but if that is not possible, it is perfectly OK to shoot someone else, as long as they look/sound/think/smell/worship the same.

And sometimes you need to shoot them with bombs.

By "ready to go" does he mean "blank expression" on Dubya's face?
