Cheneys highlight Freedom Conference in Steamboat Springs
By Luke Graham



Steamboat Springs — Former Vice President Dick Cheney defended the National Security Agency while speaking Friday as part of the fifth annual Freedom Conference, put on by The Steamboat Institute.

Cheney spoke alongside his daughter, Liz Cheney, who is running for U.S. Senate in Wyoming.

The Cheneys spoke for more than an hour, touching on a variety of subjects — including Dick Cheney's recent heart transplant, the upcoming election, the Middle East and President Barack Obama — but the primary topic was the ever-present threat of attacks from overseas.

As George W. Bush’s second-in-command after the 9/11 attacks, Cheney helped design the controversial NSA and put his support behind it again Friday, emphasizing that the U.S. still is under threat of a terrorist attack.

“The biggest threat facing us are terrorists armed with something more dangerous than plane tickets and box cutters,” Cheney told the sold-out crowd at the top of Thunderhead at Steamboat Ski Area.

5. Seems to me the plane tickets and box cutters were more than enough

to create the "new Pearl Harbor" Cheney and his evil neo-con cronies needed to fulfill their wet dream of waging war for fun and profit.

6. I can't wait to grave dance on his arse.

It is a sad that he will not end via lethal injection from the state, but he will die. I will jump for joy and celebrate in the streets.

[Frustratedlady]

7. He seems to have trouble forming a smile.

Lack of practice?

That little family group photo is something I could pass on. Just ruined a perfectly lovely Sunday morning. Shudder.

8. And my heart works great too! nt

9. Yes, from Sneer's perspective, because it's kept him out of prison.

Probably been very useful for keeping track of Congress, including the flight plans of pesky Senators.

10. That War Criminal is still on the loose and supports the recently exposed criminal surveillance

of the American people. What a shock.

I bet he hates Whistle Blowers also.

He is one of the most evil people on the planet right now.

I bet he supports lying about Syria so we can start another war there also.

12. Of course he does, and his bloodthirsty chicken hawk daughter does as well.

From the article:

The Cheneys also were critical of the Obama administration's stance on national security, each calling Obama out of touch with the situations on foreign soil.

“The world is worse when America is weak or walks away,” Liz Cheney said. “That’s a lesson learned today when you turn on the television."
