Jon Stewart Deflates America's Best Known "Dick"


When former President Vice President Dick "The Dick" Cheney lashed out recently against proposed cuts of 5.9% in the Defense Department budget, including reductions in our active duty Army, perhaps he wasn't aware that something called videotape existed when he was Secretary of Defense under President George H.W. Bush.  Jon Stewart reminds him of that, and also that even with the cuts, the U.S. military budget is still larger than those of the next 13 countries combined.  Much like, as Stewart notes, The Dick is a bigger hypocrite than the next 13 hypocrites combined.  Especially satisfying is the fact that The Dick doesn't know that, in attacking food stamp recipients in his comments, he's attacking a large number of military families.  Enjoy the takedown.
