Dark Powers Undiminished

Our Dark Lord Cheney stirs rage among the left. I’m gonna miss this guy. A Dick Cheney gallery after the news at FOX:  

Vice President Cheney mocked Vice President-elect Joe Biden’s grasp of the Constitution, defended former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and said President Bush “doesn’t have to check with anybody” before launching a nuclear attack.

In a blunt, unapologetic interview on “FOX News Sunday,” Cheney fired back at Biden for declaring in October that “Vice President Cheney has been the most dangerous vice president we’ve had probably in American history.”

“He also said that all the powers and responsibilities of the executive branch are laid out in Article I of the Constitution,” Cheney said in a interview that was conducted on Friday. “Well, they’re not. Article I of the Constitution is the one on the legislative branch.”

“Joe’s been chairman of the Judiciary Committee, a member of the Judiciary Committee in the Senate for 36 years, teaches constitutional law back in Delaware, and can’t keep straight which article of the Constitution provides for the legislature and which provides for the executive. So I think I’d write that off as campaign rhetoric. I don’t take it seriously.”

Cheney, who is often called the most powerful vice president in history, also challenged Biden’s claim that the Bush administration has amassed too much executive authority, a trend Biden reportedly plans to reverse.

“If he wants to diminish the office of the vice president, that’s obviously his call,” Cheney shrugged. “President-elect Obama will decide what he wants in a vice president and apparently, from the way they’re talking about it, he does not expect him to have as consequential a role as I have had during my time.”

Cheney defended the administration’s aggressive prosecution of the War on Terror, which he said was a major reason the nation hasn’t been attacked in seven years. He said the 1973 War Powers Act is a violation of the Constitution because Congress does not have the right by statute to alter presidential constitutional power.

“That it is an infringement on the president’s authority as the commander-in-chief,” Cheney said. “It has never been resolved, but I think it’s a very good example of a way in which Congress has tried to limit the president’s authority and, frankly, can’t.

“The president of the United States now for 50 years is followed at all times, 24 hours a day, by a military aide carrying a football that contains the nuclear codes that he would use and be authorized to use in the event of a nuclear attack on the United States,” Cheney said. “He could launch the kind of devastating attack the world has never seen.

“He doesn’t have to check with anybody. He doesn’t have to call the Congress. He doesn’t have to check with the courts. He has that authority because of the nature of the world we live in.”

Think Progress, meanwhile, with Our Dark Lord Cheney on telling Patrick Leahy to eff himself. The comments are pretty good. Lame duck veep? His ability to enrage is undiminished.

Firedoglake, sniffing at Cheney’s telling people to eff off, tells him to eff himself.

FDL probably feels better now, just like Cheney did after he told Leahy. Gateway.

Harsh dose of Riehlity: “I would have paid to see him go up against Obama”

Red State, Biden’s been asking for it.

Meanwhile, here’s an appreciation of Cheney-bashing art:

 

Best for last. the late, great print edition of the Weekly World News:

OK, better for laster. The best Dick Cheney art doesn’t have Dick in it at all:
