Simile Contest: Dick Cheney editionJosh Marshall is right: Nancy Pelosi shouldn't complain about Dick Cheney attacking her. She should attack back, in similar fashion to the way that Barack Obama did at a recent campaign rally.
Cheney is quoted as saying of Pelosi that he doesn't question her patriotism, he questions her judgment.
This leads to an exclusive RBC simile contest, to wit:
Dick Cheney attacking someone's judgment is like ____________
Fill in the blank! Impress your friends! It makes a great party game.
My initial thought: Dick Cheney attacking someone's judgment is like Medusa attacking someone's appearance.
Bonus points if the analogy highlights extra ridiculousness. For example: "Dick Cheney attacking someone's judgment is like the South African apartheid government attacking someone's racial sensitivity." When the moronic MSM asks, "Are you really comparing Cheney to the purveyors of apartheid?", you can respond, "Well, Cheney supported the apartheid government consistently during his time in the House; he even voted against calling for Mandela's release. Another example of perverse Cheney judgment."
