Dick "Dick" Cheney in our midst


We here on the Eastern Shore are not happy. (Flight limits imposed over Cheney's Shore home). First we were inflicted with Donald Rumsfeld (let me remind you that he is making millions of dollars off of the Tamiflu sale to the Pentagon), and now we have Dick "Dick" Cheney. Why are we so lucky?

An alert reader suggests that not only does Dick have a house in our neighborhood, cutting off the air supply, but he may also be a more permanent resident after Barbara "Barb Wire" Bush gets through beating up on him. King George has already taken him out of the "Security Loop."

So, how do you get rid of an unwelcome neighbor? We could go to Goose Central in Canada and distribute brochures telling them that Cheney Land was an ideal wintering ground (don't laugh; dealing with goose poop on your lawn is pretty awesome). We could have every hunter on the Eastern Shore access to the adjacent property (trust me, more people are hit with stray buckshot around here than than the deer. A hell of a lot more than are hit by a desire to do good).

It is very simple, Mr. Rumsfeld and Mr. Cheney are obtrusive neighbors. We don't get anything in this County for having them here but a lot of headache. And now they may be permanent? God Bless!
