Id1ots. Anyone who thinks politicians don’t act in a self-serving manner in every aspect of their lives is deluded. Cheney sold war for personal gain and Bush went along for the ride. Obama is no better(unions, immigration, and the imaginary political clout he somehow wielded), and the free pass he has gotten from the press is irrefutable.

Don’t bash politicians or others for their beliefs; stand up for your own, and help steer policy. Just don’t blindly go down the right or left path because its how you lean.

A fanatic is one who can’t change his mind and won’t change the subject. W. Churchill

My, my, my…so many posts from the ever-familiar outraged, shrill, endangered angry white males who haven’t taken their psychosis meds—and are still in the dreamland of those heady, wonderful 8 years of the Bush/Cheney regime….or were you guys ASLEEP for those 8 years?

why do republicans insist with the absurd notion that the bush administration policies kept your country safe. be real and grow up. the world despises the republican party. your party stands for war and profits and it dosen,t matter who you persecute. why! GREED. as for your health care we in australia do not have insurance companies telling us who lives or who dies. probably why we have so many americans living here. because our healthcare is for free.

Thank you, Dick Cheney, for saving the United States of America. But seriously, folks….

It sure is fun watching poor old Dick Cheney stumbling all over the right wing airwaves, desperately trying to poison the jury pool and dodge a VERY long stretch in a federal prison. I only saw clips of his “interview” with Chris Wallace on FOX Noise on Sunday. Someone described it as a starry-eyed teenage girl interviewing one of the Jonas brothers.

It sure is funny observing the meltdown of Dick and Liz (Cheney – not Burton and Taylor). The trillion dollar hammer is about to hit the fan. They’re like cornered rats. Oh, man! I’m lovin’ this!

Don’t take your eye off the Cheneys. For your best entertainment bargain, these two are the show that should not be missed. We’re talking essential viewing here!

At the end of the clip, when Cheney says he condones the torture techniques that were employed that went beyond the tortures that were approved by the Bush admin as “enhanced” (not per the Geneva Convention), it made me sick to my stomach. What I didn’t get is why he is hiding behind the lawyers and CIA employees who sancitioned and/or carried out these enhanced and/or “no holds barred” torture techniques. Doesn’t he realize he’s made it obvious that he is the real war criminal.

When I read the words calling Dick Cheney a “torturer” I feel like I’m surrounded by morons. CNN and MSNBC have reinvented the world of biased reporting. Talk about fair and balanced…they don’t even know what that means. The current administration is a disaster…and everybody but the looney left knows it.

The exchange between Cheney and Wallace truly pales in comparison to the extreme love affair the liberal media has with Obama and I find it beyond humiliating for you or any other “journalist”(I use that term quite generously) to even comment on the interview, given the current climate. Obama has been given every pass available. His radical personal history, communist advisers and various other shortcomings are glossed over and retouched to a level of pure fiction. Magazine articles and interviews focus on his wife’s “style” (again a loose term), physical fitness and countless attributes that simply do not exist. Liberals like yourself need to realize that just because you write or speak of something, it does not make it so.
Really, stop embarrassing yourselves.

So torture is a good thing. Any country or group that tortures is NOT bad/evil because torture is OK because iIt gets results. So when you see an American get his head cut off by a terrorist I’m sure you say to yourself, “well torture works for us so I guess it works for them too.”
We as a country, under the previous administration, have now accepted torture as a device of war. We made it acceptable!.

It is amazing how liberals can suck at the teat of the government and extol
the virtues of the press as long as it has nothing positive to say about the
Republican, Independent, or Conservtive point of view. What a bunch of
fools.
Liberals for censorship is more like it.
Just like blind sheep to the slaughter,
not an original thought between any of them.
