Are We Expected to Take Dick Cheney Seriously?

Dick Cheney: a man who asked for the legal authorization to torture people.

Nursultan Nazarbayev: the Kazakhstan president who cancelled democratic elections back in '98. He also stole a December election last year.

The scene: a news conference in the capital city of Kazahkstan, Astana where two prominent opposition leaders were recently murdered in suspicious circumstances.

The message: Buddies Dick & Nursultan claim that Vladimir Putin is cracking down on democratic & human rights and using Gazprom (a quasi-governmental Russian oil company) as an extension of its foreign policy. Apparently this is bad.

The real message: 'Hypocrisy'? Isn't that some kind of hot stone massage?
