High on their own hype

Some guy from Salon taunts conservaturds in general and Dick “Iraq has weapons of mass distruction” “the insurgency is in last throes” “we’re turning another corner in Iraq” “I had heart pain” Cheney in particular:

Yuck it up, CPACers, the joke's on you.

Conservative activists spend three days giddily forecasting a return to power in 2012. History suggests otherwise.

The man who assured us we’d be greeted as liberators in Iraq dropped in on this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference to make yet another prediction.

“I think that Barack Obama is going to be a one-term president,” Dick Cheney declared on Thursday.

Two days later he was in the hospital in ICU. ‘Bout time, God.

You’ll excuse me if I rain on their parade, but there’s a source with just a little more credibility than Dick Cheney that would beg to differ: history.

The polls back him up.
