Who Does He Love?

BrothersIn(no)Arms
BigTimeVille


The titular co-head of the Roving Cheneyburtonians has been on the road lately, and we can't help wonder if he's been humming one the best of the old Destroyer Tunes:

I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side, and it's a-made out of rattlesnake hide
Got a brand new chimney put on top, and it's a-made out of human skull
Come on take a little walk with me baby, and tell me who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?



Which begs the question - who does BigTime really love?

Apparently, it's not those extremely well-trained, battle ready Iraqi Troops.

His next visit was to Taji Air Base, where he saw tanks that Iraqis had rebuilt and watched while they practiced a vehicle sweep at a security checkpoint.

U.S. forces guarded Cheney with weapons at the ready while Iraqi soldiers, who had no weapons, held their arms out as if they were carrying imaginary guns.



Then again, like Tina Turner always said:

"What's Love Got to Do With It?

Because, like clothes, the Emporer can always order up glittering new weaponry for his minions*
