Former Fourth-Rate VP Criticizes Obama's "Second Rate" Nominees (With Update)

Via Fox News:
Former Vice President Dick Cheney said Saturday night that President Barack Obama has jeopardized U.S. national security by nominating substandard candidates for key cabinet posts and by degrading the U.S. military.

"The performance now of Barack Obama as he staffs up the national security team for the second term is dismal," Cheney said in comments to about 300 members of the Wyoming Republican Party.

Cheney, a Wyoming native, said it was vital to the nation's national security that "good folks" hold the positions of secretary of state, CIA director and secretary of defense.

"Frankly, what he has appointed are second-rate people," he said.
OK, let me see if I've got this straight: Obama nominates two decorated combat veterans for national security posts, and our draft-dodging piece-of-shit former VP -- who fully backed the Iraq Debacle and probably committed treason when he outed CIA agent Valerie Plame -- thinks that these guys are second-rate.

Well, at least Cheney can claim -- despite all his failures -- that he did elevate douchebaggery to an art form. 

UPDATE:  I miss Jon Stewart's Cheney impersonation:
