"Why I Tortured Dick Cheney ?"

~

DICK CHENEY: No. If they did I shouldn't take this job. We've talked about how Senator Clinton referred to me as Darth Vader.I asked my wife about that, if that didn't bother her. She said, no, it humanizes you. So it's you've got to have a sense of humor about it. Don't take it personally. You've got to have a thick skin or you shouldn't be in this business


See what she is saying? That she considers her husband Dick Cheney being called Darth Vader makes him seem more human.

So is she saying that Darth Vader is more human than Dick Cheney and being called Vader is a step up the humanity scale

That being called Darth is actually a compliment in this case?

Is Mrs Cheney implying that being being put on equal ground with the Evil Dark Knight of the Empire who has no conscience or morals is an improvement over what her own husband really is?

" Oh darling, they just called you Adolph Hitler and it makes you seem so much nicer."

Whoa, it is pretty bad when a step up for you is becoming an evil monster.
