CNN's John King on Tuesday asked former Vice President Dick Cheney if one of the motivating factors behind writing his recent book was out of a fear that his "days could be numbered."
As only Cheney can, he dryly replied, "I was very much aware that my days are numbered. So are yours"
You've got to love Dick Cheney, his dry wit and ability to smile while delivering a witty comeback to his enemies. NewsBusters has the video, transcript and commentary here. One quote:
"It strikes one as a bit ghoulish and intentionally appealing to the part of CNN's audience so hateful of the former Vice President that they get joy from his illness and the thought of his demise."
Yes, but that is the audience that CNN has. The same folks who have no problem with anything they say about a Republican or Conservative, but call for civility from those same people. Good for Cheney.
The truth is all our days are numbered and only God knows how many days each of us have remaining. None of us know when our time will be up, thus the importance of making every minute count. If there are things you want to do, don't put them off, because there may not be a next year. The same goes for the people you love.
Cheney has a great sense of humor and a fantastic ability to turn the tables. Go Cheney Go.
