No, He's Not Kidding. He Thinks He's Running.

Mittens "Mitt" Romney types a paragraph or two at that awful place where they still like him. President Obama doesn't seem to, however. 
President Obama, on the other hand, continues to speak as a politician. Contrary to the advice I and others gave him, he has placed two of his top political consultants in the West Wing, looking to them to opine on matters of national security.
One term goobernator of Massachusetts, failed presidential candidate, rapacious capitalist & corporate looter, born w/ a silver spoon in his mouth ... why would anyone be interested in Mittens' advice?
And yet, if we pay attention, Mittens gives us further evidence that Richard B. Cheney is one of the un-dead, or something pretty goddamn horrific.  Cheney never sleeps.
Vice President Cheney has been the target of every media, from mainstream to comic. But he spoke today as before without regard to the politics but with abiding respect for the truth.¹ Barack Obama is still hanging on to the campaign trail. He said that the last thing he thinks about when he goes to sleep at night is keeping America safe. That's a big difference with Vice President Cheney—when it came to protecting Americans, he never went to sleep.
And Romney never thinks. ¹Right. Cheney brought up the non-existent Saddam Hussein-al Qaeda connection again. It's so admirable that he stands up for his principles, isn't it? After all, it's the principle of the thing, not the truth.
Bonus inanity:
Former Vice President Cheney seeks no political future. He speaks from the vantage of one who witnessed the killing of our fellow citizens
Say what? Barack Obama wasn't near a telebision set or newspaper during the month of September, 2001? Are we being told that Obama had no idea about the attacks until his first Presidential Security briefing? Fuck you Romney, or your hack ghost-writer.
