Cheney ‘A Complete Supporter’ of Obama Afghanistan Strategy

THIS is a tell tail that we are definitely on the wrong track.

“I thought it took him a while to get there.”
What in the world did the Bush administration do in 8 YEARS?
Nothing! Ignored it and pursued a war in Iraq that had NOTHING to do with 9/11

When are you guys going to interview the likes of Cheney aggressively? The ROLE of the press is address power and demand accountability. Maybe, you should import some interviewers from Britain.

SHUT UP Cheney!!!

Cheney makes excellent points in this interview. One thing every reporter forgets is that Richard Reid plead “guilty” so he wasn’t really “tried” in a regular court. He was, however, sentenced there.
So comparisons to the Reid situation are not convincing.
And it’s silly anyway to say that one cannot criticize actions taken now by the Obama administration based upon any imagined mistakes by the Bush administration. They were the first to deal with this at this level; they had to learn. And what they did kept us safe for 7 years!

I think the President made the right decision to send troops into Afghanistan,” Cheney said. “I thought it took him a while to get there.”
==============================
Considering Cheney and Bush never sent many there for seven years, that statement takes a lot of gall!
Robert Draper’s insider book, “Dead Certain”, says the Bush was “The Decider”, but he chose from a list of options provided by Cheney. After cabinet meetings, Cheney and Bush would meet alone so Cheney could explain to Bush the significance of things said at the meetings.

Cheney says it took Obama a while to make a decision to send troops to Afghanistan. Wow, how long did it take Cheney and Bush to read intelligence estimate that Osama was planning to attack New York? Besides, was not Afghanistan the front on the war on terror? So, why did Cheney and Bush decide to invade to Iraq?

To give a former VP a platform to criticize a sitting admin about war policies when there are ongoing operations, is unprecedented.
Remember when GW Bush was POTUS and people were arrested for wearing anti-Bush T-Shirts?
GW Bush and the PNAC are responsible for the death of thousands of innocent Americans and Iraqi’s and Cheney should never be taken seriously by anyone, let alone given a platform on a major network to criticize.
This is a low for the media.

Like Obama needs this fools approval. This man who got us into a war under false pretenses, who believes in waterboarding. It took Bush almost two years before he made a decision on the war when they asked for help and the equipment they sent was defective and the soldiers had to repair them. It took Bob Woodward to bring attention to the run down conditions of the veteran’s hospitals. Don’t any of you remember this? How can you forget this and the needless loss of lives for Cheney’s war? He has some nerve standing up there and condemning anyone. He has a lot to answer for and at first I agreed with Obama not to show many documents pertaining to his deeds but now I hope they all come out. They will eventually and lets see who has egg on their face then. This man is doing more to hurt our country with his negativity than anyone else. What an ego! I can’t even be angry with Bush because he was the puppet while Cheney was the puppeteer. What did Cheney do to correct the situation with the banks, the financial system and he was V.P. when the banks were failing as it was Bush who begged for the first bailout…and he was VP when there recession started…what did he do? How can he stand up there and try to make everyone think he made all the right decisions? Well, he didn’t. In fact the Gnp is up 5.8 which is the highest in seven years (those years he was in power).Obama is taking the fight to AlQuita and has addressed the needs of the soldiers. As for Biden…he has been there 14 times in the last year….how often did Cheney visit them? The soldiers like Biden because he talks to them not down to them and they are happy he comes as he makes them feel they are not forgotten. And let’s not forget the illegal wiretapping which will come to light some day also.

Herewego: Hate is what is coming out of the republican party. As hannity said one week after his inaugural…”we will never work with him.” And so it goes….so let’s not talk hate. There are many in the tea parties that hate also…not all but some fanatics. I observed many signs with not so nice things on them…so when you talk of hate…look everywhere not only in the democratic party. By the way…I am an independent.
