A new Web site, Draft Cheney 2012, has been launched to ask former Vice President Dick Cheney to run for president in 2012. “There is only one person in our party with the experience, political courage and unwavering commitment to the values that made our party strong – and that person is Dick Cheney,” said Christopher Barron, an organizer of the group.

I’m all for this idea. This is the perfect man to draft.  The perfect man to carry on the Republican, so called conservative moment (or neo-con beliefs) with the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq if you will.

Think about it folks, what man in America, besides former president George W Bush, knows more about the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.  What man enjoys torturing prisoners and invading nations that haven’t attacked us more?  What man thinks the current president is “dithering” when it comes to Afghanistan and is putting our soldiers on the battle field in harms way by doing so?  What man was Vice President during the time in which President Bush announced his desire to get Osama Bin Laden, “Dead or Alive”?  What man loves the “shock and awe” of war more?

Former Vice President Dick Cheney is the perfect guy to draft — in the military that is.  Seeing as he unfortunately missed out serving his nation during the Vietnam war by asking for 5 deferments, I’d say this is the perfect time to give him another opportunity to use his unwavering commitment to our nation.  Draft him into the Marine Corps or perhaps the Army.  Hey, even better, perhaps we should draft him into the CIA.  He can become comrades with some of those he put in danger a few years back by leaking a CIA agent’s name for political gain.

Draft Cheney — NOW!
