Here is further proof that Dick Cheney is a moron (or, at the very least, horribly out-of-touch with life in America): Cheney said that people selling items on eBay should be counted in economic statistics. Apparently to Mr. Cheney, someone selling odds and ends on eBay is equivalent to someone working a full-time job.
John Edwards had a great comeback to this, “‘If we only included bake sales and how much money kids make at lemonade stands, this economy would really be cooking.'”
