Cheney attacks Reid, Rockefeller, Dean & Dems for turning backs on Joe
Cheney says Democrats soft on national security
By Steve Holland
13 minutes ago


MILWAUKEE (Reuters) - Vice President Dick Cheney on Monday accused Democrats of being soft in the war on terrorism with a strategy of "resignation and defeatism in the face of determined enemies."

Cheney, in a speech to Wisconsin Republicans, singled out in particular Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, West Virginia Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller and Democratic Party chairman Howard Dean for criticism.

snip...
Cheney cited Reid for suggesting the United States should not have invaded Iraq in 2003 even if it meant leaving Saddam Hussein in power and for opposing the Patriot Act, controversial laws passed with the goal of fighting terrorism. He criticized Dean for saying the capture of Saddam had not made America safer.

snip...
Cheney in particular attacked Democrats for turning their backs on Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, now running as an independent after losing his state's Democratic primary in August to anti-war candidate Ned Lamont.

2. And the candidate in Connecticut for heaven's sakes!
And I hear that they're snickering behind George Allen's back now, too. Pot meet kettle.

7. Keep It Up, Dick
Your over the top rhetoric is in conflict w/ over 60% of the population. So keep it up, I mean that. Seriously. The more you spew, the more demented you appear.

8. Cheney and the Republicans can't defend their own record so they
need to try and tear down the Democrats.

9. He does this now and then to prove he's sort of still alive.
"Hey, liberals are soft on terror. I'm not dead. See you two months from now when I've built up enough strength to sneer again. Or not, depending."

10. Heh. So is Cheney stumping for the GOP candidate in CT or has he turned
his back on him? So Cheney's admitting Lieberman's their guy instead? Maybe that's why the CT Dems voted Joe out in the primary.

Release the April NIE, Dick. Maybe Judy's still available for a few "scoops."

13. Hey Five Deferment!
No, fuck you Dick Cheney, Dems are not soft on terrorism, you, on the other hand soon-to-be-ass- raped-in-prison, are.

Take your small, insignificant manhood and go shove up your fat ass.

15. Dick, I got an idea....why don't you do a character testimonial PSA for

MILWAUKEE (Reuters) - 'Vice President Dick Cheney on Monday accused Democrats of being soft in the war on terrorism with a strategy of "resignation and defeatism in the face of determined enemies."'

(Well, some would say they are a little too defeatist in the face of their country's great enemy Cheney)

'Cheney, in a speech to Wisconsin Republicans'

(while mourning the regrettable death of their greatest representative, Joe McCarthy)


'singled out in particular Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, West Virginia Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller and Democratic Party chairman Howard Dean for criticism.'

(because they are obviously the real enemy, and sooooo much more evil than Osama or any other terrorist)

snip...
'Cheney cited Reid for suggesting the United States should not have invaded Iraq in 2003 even if it meant leaving Saddam Hussein in power and for opposing the Patriot Act, controversial laws passed with the goal of fighting terrorism. He criticized Dean for saying the capture of Saddam had not made America safer.'


(Well, it hasn't.

And don't the opposition have the right to criticize the government's policies? Sometimes I think Cheney's real motto is "Bring democracy over there, so that we don't have to face it here".

Isn't it enough that he's got a majority in congress, the Murdoch press, AND our so-called socialist government poodling up to him without demanding that the opposition party in America shouldn't oppose him?????)

snip...
'Cheney in particular attacked Democrats for turning their backs on Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman,'

(In complete contrast to the Republicans' deep loyalty to their own candidate in that race)


P.S.:


I just hate Cheney. I hate him. He has caused so much harm to the world. So many people are dead because of him. So many people have suffered because of him. He just exudes evil. I think I smell sulphur coming through my keyboard.
