VIDEO: Stuck for gift ideas? How about a Cheney-inspired bullet-proof jacket?

Nothing says Merry Christmas like getting shot by a .38. And who better to inspire holiday thoughts like that? Why, none other than the Nation of Dick himself:

Miguel Caballero, “a Colombian tailor who has made a fortune from selling bullet-proof fashion to presidents, oligarchs, celebrities,” is marketing a new line of stylish bullet-proof jackets. The jackets are apparently inspired by Vice President Dick Cheney’s now-famous shooting accident:

“This is a new market for us. Dick Cheney has helped raise awareness of accidents,” said Carolina Fernandez, a marketing director.

The Guardian’s Rory Carroll tested out the new product, bravely allowing himself to get shot by a .38 pistol at point-blank range while wearing the jacket.
Who better to model the stylish fashion-o'-the'day than the Alaskan clothes-horse of the hunting set, Quickdraw Sarah Pallin'?

As she makes her way down the runway in gunmetal gray stiletto heels, a flashy flannel and moosehair shirt, and featured designer Miguel Caballero's Xmas Dick-garb, carrying a turkey and smiling as if there's no tomorrow (for good reason), we see a salivating Cheney taking aim. What a way to stage a fashion show!

Let's hope ol' Dick is shooting blanks! But then, he usually does, from what we in the know hear from anonymous sources. Winky winky.

This is a wardrobe must for any family. Buy matching bullet-proof vests for the kiddies! Invite the in-laws in for some good old fashion people-hunting! Rootin'-tootin' fun for all ages!

And for only a few dollars extra, we're including the stocking stuffer of all stocking stuffers! A travel-sized container of the best buckshot money can buy, already gift-wrapped! Tell your friends!

Death certificates not included.
