    Cheney can start talking about Obama when Obama "mistakenly" gets the US involved in a war that costs over a trillion dollars, squanders a surplus budget, puts the economy into the worst recession in 80 year, and soils our nation's reputation with torture.

    What a zero Cheney is.

    There was no surplus budget. If your wife drained your children's college funds to put a plus in the checking account, you wouldn't call that a surplus. So please, quit referring to the stolen social security funds of the Clinton/Newt years as a surplus.

    You've been mislead by conservative propaganda. There was a budget even excluding SS funds.

    [​IMG]

    http://cbo.gov/ftpdocs/120xx/doc12039/HistoricalTables[1].pdf

    The surplus is show both "total" (include the SS surplus receipts) of $236 billion and "on-budget" (excluding SS) of $86 billion.

    So please, quit denying that there was a surplus budget that Bush/Cheney and the Republicans squandered.

    I hate evil, ergo I hate Cheney. Rich and successful are two different things. I measure success by: joy, kindness, compassion, and the ability to love. The acquisition of wealth is not a measure of success to me.

    Nope. I'm pretty happy all around with love and joy aplenty.

    Uhhhhh

    Great. They're both tools! Now you're talking.

    It is called that because that is propaganda. Ask the people of Iraq if they felt that it was a war IN Iraq or a war against them. A sovereign nation was invade, their democratically elected government (for better or worse) was dismantled, civil factions now rule the country...I assure you that it was a war.

    You can tell yourself that all day long. Does not make it true. The Nazi's told people that the Jews were thieves...were they? The Communists said that capitalists were evil...were they? Propaganda, is all it is.

    What credibility?

    Truth. He is also a giant liar-pants!

    ie, "torture"
    That they SAY kept thousands alive. They, as you know, say a lot of (*)(*)(*)(*) things. They're hardly ever true tho...

    By whom? Sean Hannity? Hahahahahahha.

    Yeh, not really.

    I know they SAY they kept thousands alive, but this is a procedure that that is a win-win situation. It requires little skill, labor, or resources but can yeild good results. If it fails...oh well...not much money spent.

    And no, not Sean Hannity. Actual facts and events.

    Right wing lies?...so soldiers who actually fought in Iraq come home to America and just lie, but CNN obviously tells the stunning and enlightening truth. You are making me giggle.

    Republicans did not want to default, they wanted a compromise on spending cuts which the Democrats refused to do. They were ready to DEFAULT THE NATION, in the name of spending more of your hard earned tax money. Once again...a product of CNN.

    Thats opinion...I bet 10 years from now, liberals will claim that being held in jail cells is also torture and that prisoners should live in mansions, have maids, and even prostitutes at their disposal. A liberal utopia.

    Blaming bankers for the recession is like blaming a kid who stole a yogurt from a grocery store because his father threatened to kill him if he didn't on top of paying for it. The kid being bankers and the father being government and the payment coming from Freddie and Fannie. You are heavily misinformed on how it occurred.

    Ha-ha!! Yep... in other news.. The chewing tobacco industry denounced the cigarette industry for selling an addictive and cancer causing product. The Gold diggers guild publicly denounced the Streetwalkers consortium for lack of morals and insider traders blamed naked short selling speculators for market volatility.

    Sometimes I cant understand how some people who are so dysfunctionaly oblivious can get through day to day without dying from stupidity.

    Yep..Yep... thats why Eric Cantor (R) invested tens of thousands of personal cash in a fund specifically engineered to capitalize off the fall in value of U.S treasuries. No conflict of interest there huh?

    I am a war vet. I served in Desert Storm. I was a blind sheep until that repugnant orgy of war profiteerring and murder for murder spree opened my eyes. I am not alone. I and many of my brothers and sisters in blood support Ron Paul, he wants to get us out of the middle east, he wants to end special interest wars and criminal exploitation of our military. If you listen to what Faux Nooze and CNN tell you and are to lazy to dig a little for truth .. stop giggling until you look in a mirror.

    Wonder how he got to the top of the list for a heart transplant... he is old and unhealthy... usually that means he would be at the bottom of the eligibility list for such a limited resource as a healthy heart.... but in this country healthcare is only regulated by huge piles of cash.

    Zimmerman thinks he can get away with shooting a person because Cheney got away with shooting a guy in the face.

    Considering the actual source of the comment is not the "Bush was a disaster too defense" champy. Who gives a rat's ass what that war profiteering dickhead has to say? Cheney is a draft dodging chickenhawk scumbag who weaseled his way into high positions in the DOD after going to great lengths to avoid really serving in defense of his country. Then he worked tirelessly to privatized the whole US military system only to later cash in by being hired as CEO of Haliburton. Then after appointing himself Vice President of the US he was an integral figure in engineering the murderous 10 year debaucle in Iraq which netted him and his ******** cronies trillions of dollars on the taxpayers money while getting countless thousands of US servicemen killed and maimed. Lol, you bet.

    However he got it, you can bet your sweet ass that there was absolutely no risk involved on his part. He is and always has been a gutless and spineless piece of crap.

    Well stated brother, you are not alone at all. I figured out the same thing after being involved in a war profiteering blood orgy in '72-'73....The same gutless greedy ********s now have firm control of both political parties and the didaster known as US Foreign policy.

    Somebody should apologize for our unleashing those torture monkeys Cheney and Rumsfeld on the world. It's a wonder we survived eight years of such incompetent fools running our military establishment.

    Rummy was, without question, the worst Sec Def of my lifetime. GWB picked Rummy only on Cheney's recommendation. Dude's poisonous.
