Cheney Unhurt After Suicide Attack In Afghanistan
A suicide bomber attacked the entrance to the main U.S. military base in Afghanistan Tuesday during a visit by Vice President Dick Cheney, killing at least 14 people and wounding a dozen more. The Taliban claimed responsibility and said Cheney was the target.
Cheney’s spokeswoman said he was fine, and the vice president later met with President Hamid Karzai in the capital, Kabul, before leaving the country.

It's a tragedy that 14 people died for the likes of him... I'm sure that even if he was hit all they'd need to do are a few minor repairs with a handy screwdriver to get him back up and running. Those cyborgs are pretty damn tough!

The most interesting thing about it is the fact that isn't getting much play in the media, who tipped them off that he was there?

Ethel, is Cheney a Borg?
This shows that the insurgents have deeply infiltrated the Karzai government. I guess that's what the US gets for setting up a Unocal employee as their pResident.
