Okay, Now I'm a Little Peeved at Obama

Because of this:

Obama Extends Cheney's Secret Service Protection

There appears no end in sight for when Dick Cheney, a rare former vice president with Secret Service protection, will lose his security detail. Whispers has learned that the political battler's Secret Service protection has been extended, though there were no details on the length. We don't know why President Obama OK'd the extension, which must be approved by the commander in chief because former veeps typically don't get any Secret Service security after leaving office.

This creep made a fortune from war-profiteering, and he's going to make another bunch of millions bulk-selling a self-serving "memoir" through a wingnut publisher. Let the guy who said "So?" in response to the American people pay for his own security detail.
