Cheney Is a 'Maniacal' Hypocrite »
Posted By Progressive 1 month, 1 week ago in Political Opinion
Dick Cheney is accusing President Obama of "dithering" on Afghanistan and endangering troops. How rich, writes Kristen Breitweiser. What actually endangers troops "is bad judgment—particularly when exercised by an overzealous, power-hungry, maniacal Vice President like you." Cheney seems to have forgotten that the Iraq war—a "catastrophic blemish" on our history—is not only his fault but the "biggest reason that our troops are still fighting in Afghanistan."
And what's wrong with a little dithering, anyway? "Imagine how even a momentary pause and (gasp) a modicum of actual intellectual debate/analysis might have changed the forgone outcome and conclusion of your reckless decision to go to war in Iraq, not to mention the feckless creation of your torture program," Breitweiser writes for the Huffington Post.

To show just how patriotic "dead eyes dick" is, here is just one example of how he operates. Halliburton was selling nuclear processing equipment to Iran starting in the 1990's when he was running the company and continued selling nuclear technology well after he was in the White House denouncing the Iranians for war mongering.

I watched Cheney's speech on Fox. It was great. He minced no words and has Obama cowering. He was probebly the greatest Vice President in American history. His intelligence, knowledge and common sense makes Obama look like a first grade kid.

Dick Cheney is your maniac,Albert Gore was ours.Cheney wants revenge,Gore wants the money,He wants to Deny you,and children warmth in the winter,and comfort of AC in the in the blistering heat of summer.He would park millions of family cars with gas prices unheard of in America,but that is the mild repercussions of Gore's Cap,and Steal.In the first year,or two there would be hundreds of people lined up for each of the remaining jobs still in America.So lets give Cheney all the hell you can,I won't be the least bit offended,but please keep an open mind on Gore.He is a cheat,and a liar,and is driven by an insatiable greed,for money and power.

If you want to trash Gore, feel free to submit your own story on that topic. Meanwhile, the rest of us will...

...reflect upon the damage [Cheney has] done to our country and, indeed, the world. Because, nearly nine years after 9/11, UBL is still alive, Afghanistan is still out of control, and Iraq is hardly a success. And for eight of those years, [Cheney was] in charge. -

Yeah, Obama should follow the cheny/bush example and knee jerk a decision. That worked out well for 3000+ American troops and tens of thousands of Iraqi's. Did a little number on the US economy too. Yeah dickie, your mandate to open your big mouth is huge. -

...like the right on Propeller doesn't repeat the GOP talking points word for word?

Fox News even repeats RNC talking points with identical typos.
Which reminds me--Fox News got an exclusive advance transcript of Cheney's "dithering" speech the day before he made it...might have something to do with his demand that all hotel rooms he stays in have all televisions tuned to cluster Fox before he arrives.

You need to learn to spell or use the spell checker."
"...that Obama has pack in there."
Wolfie, you DO realize that the word should have been "packed", right? Perhaps you need to learn to use proper grammar, especially before slamming someone's spelling.
Right-wing hypocrisy at it's finest, LOL! 8D
