Dick Cheney: Obama Has Been 'Unmitigated Disaster To The Country'

[Peach]

We had a nice quail and pheasant dinner for the Church mens group, week before last. Good stuff. My dog is partial to ducks and doves. We don't have an awful lot of quail around these parts. Fire ants and coyotes have taken a terrible toll on them.

At any rate, Dick Cheney failed to appear on a subpoena as did several Bush White House personnel. It was highly unusual and the first time any administration had actually invoked a blanket immunity that NO ONE was going to show. And no one did. And now, you can bet no one ever will again. Including Holder. He has executive immunity and can do what he wants without answering to Congress.

Fire ants and coyotes? Sheeze. Count yer blessins. Around here it's big fat water moccasins. My puppy almost died. I can imagine those things getting fat on game birds there seems to be a dearth of.

When did Attorney General Holder become Vice President Holder?

I guess the same time Karl Rove, Harriet Miers, Joshua Bolton, Sarah Taylor among a handful of other underlings became immune to subpoenas. Maybe so long as private citizen Karl Rove continues to claim executive privilege, we all can.

By the way, at least you;re honest that your reason for liking Cheney are based on personal connections and not his performance. Hell, every murderer on death row has family and friends that will tell you that they are actually "good people".

Yes, the Iraq war dead & maimed cheer him on daily I gather.

Navy1960, don't expect any one of these people here on the Cheney trophy hunt to even respond to Kerry's false accusation against Cheney on Halliburton.

The sick part of it is that Kerry WANTED Cheney to be a crook, but Cheney didn't play ball, Cheney divested himself of Halliburton holdings, yet there have been ten false accusations intimating that here of people who also want Cheney to be a crook, but they just can't realize why Congress dropped their "subpoenas" when they realized they didn't have authority over the Executive Branch under the first three Articles of the Constitution. It's too complex for me to explain, but I remember reading the story back when it happened. They dropped that like a hot potato.

But they didn't drop the Halliburton allegations after they figured the coast was clear and the public had forgotten the details.

Their compliant press has a tendency to remove many of the stories of that era in times of elections.

That's why we no more have a Fifth Column. They're more like the Leaning Tower now.

Thank you for showing how corrupt Democrat campaigns get when it's win-at-all-costs-the-truth-be-damned.

becki I can honestly say that I am not a fan of the former Vice President for various reason's which I have made known many times. That said though, I think the salary and compensation issue is a little bit of a stretch when its pretty clear that most of his stock options if not all of them went to good causes. The other thing of note that the accusations for war were somehow related to the former Vice Presidents relationship to Haliburton/KBR are completely misguided and serve to mislead people in my humble opinion. My personal opinion is that the former Vice President acting on bad intelligence and a personal history with Iraq as well as long term view of a pax Americana beat the drum loudly for war along with several aides when the more prudent thing to do would have verified before making the commitment that led this nation into Iraq. I think it a bit unfair though to judge the man based on his business success and that is why I don't.

I can understand why. I went to church with his childhood neighbor whose children played with the Cheney kids. Also, in that small Wyoming town where I lived, where Lynn Cheney was Homecoming Queen and he her escort, good and honorable people are loved and held dear. Their reputation was of the highest, and Dick was the most popular Congressman who was ever reelected 5 times in the Equality State.

I have no compunctions about defending a man of such caliber of him, even if he did accidentally shoot a lawyer once.

Your background becki gives you an insight that just about every other American does not have the privledge of having on the former Vice President personally. I am sure all of those from Wy. especially those from your home town look upon him with pride as you should. My opinions are my own and generally taken from my own life experiences , while yes they can be somewhat harsh I suppose when it comes to those that lead this nation , I'm of the opinion that every citizen of every stripe should hold their leaders to the highest of standards. Mine is personally born from my own experiences in the service of this nation and seeing the the tragic waste of all those good young men and women in a misadventure beyond measure. I stand surpremely proud of all the good young men and women who have served and still serve this nation and am in awe of their unquestionable loyality to our beloved nation. So when I see a leader of this nation not take into consideration in my humble opinion ALL the consequences that might arise from such a commitment I tend to call him or her into question for that.

"President Obama also promised when he was running for office in 2008 that he would cut the budget deficit in half by the end of his first term.* But the budget deficit projected for 2012 in the budget he just released is $1.327 trillion.* The deficit in 2008 was $458.6 billion, less than half one trillion, the former all time record."

"By 2022, Obama’s own budget projects that national debt held by the public to total nearly $20 trillion! That would be the highest national debt in world history."

For sure.

How many Iraqis did we kill? And not one single Iraqi on 9 / 11. Not one. No Al Qaeda in Iraq... I mean nothing. Absolutely nothing. The place was still reeling from the first round and the years of subsequent bombing under the "no fly zone" regulations. What a horrid affair of death and destruction for no apparent reason other than a bunch of fools who couldn't have cared less whose kids they authorized to bomb and be bombed.

Still turns my stomach.

Sir, integrity is something you can't buy, it's something you earn. When Vice President Cheney was Congressman Cheney all those years ago, it was well-known his door was always open. He befriended men and women on both sides of the aisle, and I rubbed elbows not only at church but in my business with his and Lynn's friends. They built relationships with people who needed their help. They weren't born with silver spoons, either. Dick Cheney worked on a line crew for the power company once when he really wasn't well-known. He attended a state university, not an Ivy League organization. He was a man who truly came from middle class roots and managed to do so with honor and integrity. That never vanished from his resume. As a Congressman, he got the respect of higher-ups, and that is no accident. He worked all his life so other people could have it good, namely, the people in our so very small state of Wyoming. When he finally thought he had retired from public life, he went to work for a private industry that is also a good community supporter in our city. Those folks are sterling community people, and their #1 concern is honesty and integrity. I'm not surprised that it wasn't until the former Secretary of Defense went to work for them that the character assassins of the left saw their opportunity to disable Republican supporters as much as possible by setting up and finding fault in the organization. It was the plan that Kerry would then smash Cheney based on this falsetto scenario they created and covered up.

They just can't let it go. I think it's a big mistake to destroy the entire nation to satisfy the selfishness of the George Soros crowd so set on getting their hands on all of that tax money for their pet rock projects, and smearing Cheney hastens their base. People get to thinking after hearing the lies and responses to set ups as having merit if they're repeated again and again and again.

But a home girl knows who the good guys and the bad guys are. Vice President Dick Cheney is none of the accusations that have appeared on this thread, except he doesn't have to take it any more as a private citizen, and raising angst against him internationally will mean a lot of people will die because there won't be any strength come of to ever come of partisan calumny escalated by the press.

Yes, but Bush looked ALMOST like a real soldier prancing on the flight deck, in a uniform he had no right to wear, didn't he?

 

[Sallow]

Cheney speaks and the left wing goes crazy. Funny stuff.

The unnecessary Iraq death toll means nothing?

Congress approved the Iraq war. If we are to place blame there is plenty to go around. Besides that history will judge the justification of the war and it will do it without an emotional attachment.

It did.

Basically because Republicans would have done it no matter what..and Democrats were lied too.

CHEYENNE, Wyo. -- Former Vice President Dick Cheney walked onstage without any assistance and spoke for an hour and 15 minutes without seeming to tire in his first public engagement since he underwent a heart transplant three weeks ago.

He sat in a plush chair throughout the long chat with daughter Liz Cheney and looked decidedly healthier than recent appearances where he has been gaunt and used a cane.

Cheney even threw in a couple of political plugs amid much reminiscing at the Wyoming Republican Party state convention in Cheyenne on Saturday.

He said the presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney is going to do a "whale of a job." He said it's never been more important than now to defeat a sitting president and the Republican Party should unite behind Romney.

"He has been an unmitigated disaster to the country," Cheney said of President Barack Obama.

More: Dick Cheney: Obama Has Been 'Unmitigated Disaster To The Country'

Compared to what Cheney's Administration did to this country, Obama walks on water. Cheney should be walking around a SuperMax in a jumpsuit with a big fat number on his back. I've got issues with Obama, but there is no comparison in terms of disaster between this and the last Administration.

You people just don't get it, do you? Republican's have absolutely nothing to offer the country. Since the right got booted out of office in 2006, they've done nothing to address the systemic problems of their party, one of which, is constantly lying to this nation. Until the right can bring something to the table, this country has no reason to listen to anything you say.

But you've got to give them credit.

Its true they do nothing much but filibuster and play golf but they've got the best PR system going. They're in front of cameras every day, proudly bragging about how they're screwing us over, stealing from us, stealing from our children and our children's children and I'll be damned, they've got the nerve to say they're saving the whole effing planet.

And, a good number of people blindly believe it.

They look at the facts that are right in front of them and they still choose to believe GObP/Repub lies.

Its amazing to watch.

He was very good at that. I've seen a composite of videos that show him wearing the uniform or jacket of several different organizations that he never served in.

President Obama would never do that but can you imagine what would happen if he did?

So when I see a leader of this nation not take into consideration in my humble opinion ALL the consequences that might arise from such a commitment I tend to call him or her into question for that.

That's your privilege, and I respect freedom of thought and speech.

It's just that when you're on the 50 yard line, and the two teams are right there in the middle, and you see somebody trying to beat up your quarterback over and over in a way that is inconsistent with fair rules of play, it leaves a certain impression people on the top row may not be able to make out. So when they try to break his leg, and it keeps not breaking, you just send up a little thank you to God for the gift of health in the face of brutality.

I knew every false word that was said against Cheney from the get go. Oddly, I was born in Houston, where my uncle was a Judge that occasionally hung his hat at his office visited frequently by Sr. President Bush. My uncle didn't hang with anybody in business or personally who didn't have an unimpeachable character, and so I have a double-dose of trust in that administration for near flawlessness of character. My side of the family were army brats, hazed so often we were fighters and do not back down from scraps. That false story I mentioned above about JHHatfield? He was a Texas State Penitentiary inmate incarcerated for trying to kill his boss with a firebomb. He petitioned then-governor George W. Bush for a reprieve, but after looking at the facts and talking to the family of the man he attempted to assassinate, he declined the pardon, so JHHatfield had to serve his final year and was so pissed off, he decided to con his way back into the world by writing a "revealing" book called "Priviledged son." about the alleged misdeeds of young George W. Bush in the Texas National Guard. He completely made up a story that Bush II had gone AWOL, which was not true. He named 4 witnesses he had interviewed. When the postman rang the second time, JHHatfield had already convinced Little Brown and Co. to hustle out thousands of copies just as Governor Bush was declaring he was going to run for President. The copies had already been printed when the President of Little Brown and Co stepped down, saying he failed to check the witnesses and the background of JHHatfield's life of crime against authorities.

But ta-da! The Democrats used the unpublished book for their platform. A few years later, Dan Rather brought up the same garbage and lost his job at CBS.

People shouldn't tell lies about good people. They just shouldn't do it.

But when it comes to electing a President, Republicans first have to walk on water, and when they do come up with a reasonably good fellow, the character assassination end of the party comes out with false facts, overdramatized small farts blown up into sewers larger than the national debt so people will in fact, not notice the national debt.

Using JHHatfields' book of four false testimonials from Bush acquaintances who testified they hadn't even been contacted by JHHatfield, much less given an interview to him, and an utter absence of evidence Bush had ever done anything but honorable service in the Texas National Guard, the Dem spin machine blew a lot of sewer gas but in the end, Governor Bush became President Bush.

I watched the whole thing, wondering how could people be so willing to someone who lied over someone who's adult life has been spent in public service to other citizens of state and country?

I just have a little squeaky voice, Navy1960, but I know what I saw, and I saw a lot of lying called and disproven, yet the left-leaning tower, once revered as the Fifth Column, have lost their way and taken half the country into a land where lies are cherry picked and truth is concealed.

They concealed President Bush's record of cleaning up most of the Texas brownfields, his conservatism, and his humane treatment of people living in Texas, his wife's war on illiteracy, and lifelong pledge support of minority and other artists.

Thank you for your service. My big bro was in charge of maintaining fighter planes on the Midway for years. He wound up being a Master Chief of some kind, don't know much about titles, but he said they made way for him because he was a hard worker, and he refused to go to officer training. Funny how the Navy was the best place he could ever have been and I was proud of his supporting role.He retired over a decade ago.

Have a great evening.

Cheney is a criminal now, is he? I want to see the conviction paperwork, please.

Dick Cheney failed to appear for a legal subpoena to the Congress of the United States of America. He was in contempt, a crime, for which he was never held accountable.

He committed a crime, he is a criminal.

The issue, meat head is or can congress subpoena a sitting member of the executive.

Cheney was and is a scoundrel, not unlike the most of them that decide to be a politician rather than work for a living. He pedaled a false case for war in Iraq and is partly responsible for the deaths of thousands of Iraqis and American soldiers in that place that served no fruitful purpose what so ever.

He lied... people died. Lots of them. Mistaken, misled or just plain war profiteering, in any case, his words were untrue, they got us into a war and he is responsible for the things he said and did. Too bad he'll never be held accountable.

I suppose you're among those who think poor ol' Bush and Cheney were victims of bad intelligence? They deserve a pass for all those dead bodies... it was a little "oopsie" eh? Sorry we didn't make sure of our facts before we sent your son to die.

He pedaled a false case for war in Iraq and is partly responsible for the deaths of thousands of Iraqis and American soldiers in that place that served no fruitful purpose what so ever.

He lied... people died. Lots of them. Mistaken, misled or just plain war profiteering, in any case, his words were untrue, they got us into a war and he is responsible for the things he said and did. Too bad he'll never be held accountable.

Senator Rockefeller was the only politician to call Iraq an imminent threat. Not many I know approved of the nation building. Yet we understand democrats voted for it, until it was politically advantageous to not.

You have a very narrow view.

Bush and Cheney and friends were in the lead. You can't put off the responsibility on the people who followed the lies.

I suppose you're among those who think poor ol' Bush and Cheney were victims of bad intelligence? They deserve a pass for all those dead bodies... it was a little "oopsie" eh? Sorry we didn't make sure of our facts before we sent your son to die.

No WMDs.

No Al Qaeda.

No use.

An abject failure and open deceit of the American public.

And no more $$$$ for Cheney, no wonder he is angry.

Anyone claiming Iraq was a threat is either a fuckin' liar, or the biggest pussy on the planet.

How is a country of goat-herders, with barely any running water or electricity, 9000 miles away with no navy, a threat? At the time, they could only generate 9 hours of electricity a day. How big of a fuckin' threat can you be on 9 hours of electricity a day?
