Cheney critical of Obama

:rofl: The human dartboard speaks:

"I begin to get nervous when I see the commander in chief making decisions apparently for what I would describe as small ‘p’ political reasons, where he’s trying to balance off different competing groups in society,” Cheney said in the interview with Politico, posted online this morning. “Every time he delays, defers, debates, changes his position, it begins to raise questions: Is the commander in chief really behind what they’ve been asked to do?"
...

UPDATE: Representative Steny Hoyer, the No. 2 Democrat in the House, hit back hard at Cheney this afternoon.

"We are clearly not making the same mistake the Bush administration made," Hoyer told reporters on Capitol Hill. "They started something and didn't finish it, and they left it to this administration to clean up."

"When Mr. Cheney talks about President Obama's giving the thoughtful consideration that he is somehow dissembling, frankly they turned tail. That is pretty tough language, but I get angry when I hear Vice President Cheney talk about a job that they started but didn't finish and was worse in 2008 in December than it was six years previous."

1. Oh, and please unrec due to Cheney in the title - I see it took less than 20 seconds

[Chemisse]

[HughMoran]

4. Yes, it's true

It's amazing how fast people can do that.

[Raine]

5. I think they see the name Cheney

and automatically hit the unrec cause they hate him so much. :yoiks:

[HughMoran]

6. Right

...though this story is funny because Cheney is acting like a caricature of himself and doesn't know it.

2. Yep, he's trying to discredit Obama ahead of time.

I hope he talks himself into a knot.

7. Go fuck yourself, Cheney.

Does anyone still doubt that Dick is an evil bastard? I'd sooner invite John Wayne Gacy to a party at Chuck E Cheese than listen to a word that stupid fuck has to say.

8. In the "water is wet" department.

Cheney also recently claimed that the clusterfucks of Afghansistan and Iraq weren't Bush's fault. Now that one I can almost agree with. Bush was too fucking drunk to know what Cheney was doing in his name.
