Seeing Dick Cheney state that he prefers Rush Limbaugh to Colin Powell strikes some people as further evidence of the former’s shallow depravity.

And they would be correct. Though I’m not interested in defending Colin Powell, who has a lot to defend himself about.

But who the heck can be surprised Dick Cheney prefers Rush Limbaugh’s company to a military veteran?

Cheney and Limbaugh have more in common. They both like to get together on the occasional weekends and swap stories of their bravery. Dick can talk about all five of his deferments from Vietnam and Rush can talk about how he got out of service through a defective balloon knot. Dick can talk about shooting a friend in the face, Rush can talk about how he did the same thing with a stranger in the Dominican Repu…HEY, let’s just move on shall we?

Oh, how they have a good laugh over that. It is a good thing to talk about while they’re winding down from a long day of drowning puppies.
