Dick Cheney called "the A-Rod of politics."

“He’s like the A-Rod of politics. No one wants to hear from him, especially when he is trying to create an alternate reality to the one he is responsible for.”

David Plouffe, Obama strategist, quoted in the New York Times.

Plouffe should have added that Cheney: 

1) Was taking testosterone between 2002 and 2007. 

2) Whiffed on Iraq.

3. Should have received a lifetime ban.
