Go Cheney Yourself, Dick Cheney

Filed in International by on February 14, 2010

Dick Cheney poked his head out of his undisclosed location to share this wisdom with the world this morning:

Responding to Biden’s comments that Iraq may end up being one of the Obama administration’s greatest success, Cheney chuckled. “I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by my friend Joe Biden,” he said.

“I’m glad he now believes Iraq is a success,” Cheney said. “For them to try and take credit for what has happened in Iraq strikes me as a little strange. … So if they are going to take credit for [Iraq’s success] – fair enough – for what they’ve done while there are there – but it ought to go with a healthy dose of ‘thank you George Bush’ up front. And a recognition that some of their early recommendations with respect to prosecuting that war were just dead wrong.”

“I believe very deeply in the proposition that what we did in Iraq was the right thing to do,” Cheney said. “We got rid of one of the worst dictators of the 20th century.”

You know the success Biden is talking about – he’s talking about leaving.

    Cheney and Biden could just as well argue that Columbine was a success.

    I know I shouldn’t be, but I am amazed that Cheney is still getting TV air time. Why don’t they bring back Dan Quayle too? And, of course, last weekend was all-Sarah, all-the-time. What a remarkable country we live in. The NEWS has become the news, and any controversial, lying SOB who jacks up ratings is given a bully pulpit. Very, very sad.
