HEY, DICK CHENEY: JUST SHUT THE F*CK UP AND GO AWAY ALREADY
If anyone needs to sit down and shut up on the subject of Iraq, its Dick Cheney. In an appearance on ABCs This Week, the former Vice President didnt deny that he was accusing President Obama of committing treason for undermining the nations national security interests in Iraq in an effort to take America down a notch in the world.
Jonathan Karl said, In this op-ed, you suggest the president is a fool. That is the word you used, only a fool would take the approach hes taking in Iraq right now.
It almost seems like youre accusing the president of treason, that hes intentionally bringing America down a notch, Karl said.
Now I dont intend any disrespect for the president, but I fundamentally disagree with him, Cheney said. I think hes dead wrong in terms of the course hes taken in this nation, and I think were in for big trouble in the years ahead because of his refusal to recognize reality.
Think Progress reports:
Without denying that he was questioning Obamas intentions or dismissing the premise of Karls question, Cheney reiterated his criticism of the president for leaving a big vacuum in the entire Middle East, failing to recognize the terrorist threat, and limiting the capability of future presidents to combat crises by trimming military spending. Cheney ended his answer by stressing that he doesnt intend any disrespect for the president.
