He doesn't feel pain

There's no point in analyzing another idiotic Dick Cheney speech to an idiotic audience -- in this case the Conservative Political Action Conference. We'll just note instead that in his first public appearance since the bomb attack on Bagram Airbase in Afghanistan while he was there, he made no expression of condolence to any of the bereaved, such as the South Korean troops mourning their sergeant Yoon Jang-ho, the first South Korean military fatality in an overseas operation since the Vietnam War. Apparently yukking it up with the reactionary elite was a higher priority.
