Surprise - It's Dick!

Cheney's made an unannounced visit to Baghdad. He wants to "get a sense of things" and urge the Iraqi Parliament to work together.

A couple of comments on this statement:

1) When's the last time Cheney went anywhere announced?

2) Is he really the person to preach harmony and unity between dissonant groups? I've got another great idea: Cheney should take them all hunting as a male bonding activity. That's a good idea.

I think instead of sending over more troops - depriving more states of their National Guard personnel and equipment during forest fire and tornado seasons - we need to send over Mediators Without Boarders. If that organization doesn't exist someone should create it, stat.

Or, we could just all hold hands across the Middle East and sing "We Are the World." Where's Bono? He could start. And although everyone in the US finds Michael Jackson a joke, globally he's still revered as a superstar - he could be our secret weapon. Send them Michael Jackson.
