This was a comment I posted in response to this article. Here are my thoughts:

Ok, the argument here is as to who’s better: a man who drunkenly drowned a woman and hid that from the authorities, or a man who shot someone else while prancing around on a sissy perversion of a hunt, and hid that from the authorities. Now, I’m fairly certain I’ve never done anything nearly that awful, so I think the question that should be raised here is not, “Whose jerkwad is better?” but rather, “Why are negligent drunkards and dottering old men with no aim running our country?” I suppose my point is, the only people served by the debate over who’s the bigger ass between Kennedy and Cheney are Kennedy and Cheney, whose parties have the country suckered into thinking their only option is, well, either a douchebag or a turd sandwich.

Honestly, I’m sick of hearing comparisons like this…especially from someone whose blog clearly indicates the more than adequate intelligence of its author. It’s not about who’s better, it’s just simply about the fact that both are shitty. Read Dante’s Inferno. The fourth circle is far less shitty than the 7th, but they’re both in Hell.
