re: Cheney unprecedented attack on Obama---really strong criticism of President

I'm torn on this. On the one hand I hate that all the hard work our men and women have done there has gone to utter shite, especially from so little effort (the Iraqi military far outnumbered the ISIS folks, apparently many were just there for the paycheck).
On the other hand, we gave them all the tools to stand up on their own. We can't be holding their hands forever. If you want freedom badly enough, you fricking fight for it. Along with this point, I am so incredibly tired of the world counting on us to not only be the World Police (America, frick YEAH!) but also because those that we help often end up depending on us to keep propping them up.
Sometimes I feel like our leaders suffer from battered spouse syndrome on this. We do everything we can to make the other side better, but eventually they shite on us. Yet we still want to keep going back because maybe one day... ONE DAY... things will be good again.
Our leaders need a fricking intervention.

Interesting Cheney is so harsh and so confident his policies were right.
I wish there was a republican who could get respected attention about the IRS farce, the children at the border, the prisoner swap Ect.
Those things should have the country in outrage. All worse than Watergate or Lewinsky.
I think the nation is just tired of the BS and the talk. That is a dangerous attitude.

That's really rich coming from Cheney.

My opinion? A better word would be "classless."
He is truly the hatchet man he has been described to be.

Include Obama in that description. He has run GWB down from Day 1 and still goes to that well when he can.

You are making my point for me. I don't want to be "that guy." I hold myself to a higher standard.

I don't recall a former President or Vice President being so publicly and intentionally critical of sitting President EVER.
Hmm. Then you don't remember the bush years. Were you drunk and high the whole time, or just not paying attention?

That's some pretty bad mojo right there.
Bush has kept his mouth shut - as did his dad, when both were head and shoulders better men and better leaders than the real cockroaches that replaced them.
Cheney has held his tongue far far better than Carter did, or for that matter than Obama himself has done while president.
Seems like you have a bit of stupid mixed in with your DNA = It is about time someone called out this bullshite community organizer we have in the WH.
You guys are so transparent.

Cheney shouldn't be allowed to hate on anyone, dude is a fricking creep.

I think Cheney's criticism is a pretty powerful statement.

Good point, I was being a little heavy on the Cheney hate.

How he still gets a platform anywhere is beyond me.
Personally, I think these guys sit around roasting each other, maybe at a card game, and Cheney gets it the worse:
Obama: So old-man-river, how is that baboon heart holding up? (everyone chuckles)
Cheney: Shut up Barack, at least I'm not from Kenya.
Obama: God, you are such a dick. Speaking of which, have you been able to convert that carpet-eating daughter of yours? Oh yeah that's right, you are too busy shooting your best friends on hunting trips. Dick.
I mean, there is so much material out there, and I know I know, my delivery is horrible, but Obama probably gets him good when him and the boys are hanging out.
And then Cheney leaves, feelings hurt, and writes an op-ed for whatever journal offers him $50.
Who knows. He is entertaining though. And good for the left.

When it comes to foreign policy, if Dick Cheney criticizes you, it probably means you're doing the right thing.

Seems to me I remember Obama and other Dem officials prior to him, having no problem going outside country criticizing a GOP President. I'll tell you what's unprecedented, is the constant b!^thcin and moaning by a sitting President about his predecessor. No class whatsoever.
I guess you forget about Reagan's attacks on Carter.
