The article below is satire. Andy Borowitz is an American comedian and New York Times-bestselling author who satirizes the news for his column, "The Borowitz Report." 
n a Thursday appearance on the Fox News Channel, former Vice-President Dick Cheney said that it was �no fair� that President Obama gets to bomb Syria.
�I�m envious as hell,� he told Fox�s Sean Hannity. �That was on my bucket list.�
Asked if he had any advice for the President on bombing Syria, Cheney said, �Just enjoy it. It doesn�t get any better than this.�
The former Vice-President struck a philosophical note at the conclusion of his interview with Hannity. �Look, I had a good run,� he said. �I got to bomb Afghanistan, and I got to do it to Iraq�twice. But to see someone finally get to bomb Syria and it�s not me? I�d be lying if I said that didn�t hurt like hell.�
