HEADS UP

Former Vice President Dick Cheney used hyperbole in hawking his Bush era memoir "In My Time" by stating it would make "heads explode" in Washington.

While nothing from advance reviewers indicates a single Beltway Bean will figuratively fracture, the policies of the most powerful VP in US history made untold thousands of heads, both Middle Eastern and American, actually explode from the senseless and criminal wars Cheney celebrates in "In My Time."

The fact Uncle Sam allows a war criminal and professed torturer to roam free gobbling up millions bragging about his immoral and criminal exploits, may not make Sam's head explode, it certainly is cause to have his head examined.
