Cheney's Secret Service Protection Extended

By GottaLaff

Well, of course the Nation of Dick needs protection. A lot of people are a-gunnin' for him:

Former Vice President Dick Cheney's Secret Service protection "has been extended for at least another six months," the New York Daily News reports.

"Normally, ex-veeps only get six months of protection at taxpayer expense. But Cheney asked for an extension, and President Obama -- whom Cheney has excoriated in several interviews since leaving office -- recently signed off."

"If the Obama administration hadn't gone along with Cheney's request, he would have been forced to hire his own security agents -- or go without. Cheney's friends have said he has become more concerned about his privacy and personal safety in recent years."

Really?? He's "concerned"? Why would that be? Think... think....

Tell ya what: Instead of listing all the zillions of reasons, read Jane Mayer's book, The Dark Side. It saves me time, and it provides a public service along with a real education.
