OMFG! Dick War-criminal Cheney tells Biden to run: "Go for it Joe!"

First the Clinton's encourage Trump to run, and now The Face-Shooter wants Biden to run?


Dick Cheney Wants Joe Biden To Jump Into The Presidential Race
by Paige Lavender * August 31, 2015 * HuffPo

Former Vice President Dick Cheney said he hopes Vice President Joe Biden jumps into the 2016 presidential race.

"I'd love to see Joe get in the race," Cheney said Monday morning during a joint interview with his daughter Liz on CNN.

"Go for it Joe," Cheney added when asked why he thought Biden should run. "He's tried twice before, he obviously is interested. I think there's a lot of support for him in the Democratic party. I think it would stir things up. They're short candidates on their side."

Cheney also slammed Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton for using a private email server during her time as U.S. secretary of state.

"I think she should've known better," Cheney said.

shouldn't have been done. Does he think the American public has forgotten the lies he told? The ones that got us into pre-emptive wars for his lies? OR how about all the emails wiped clean for GW?

He thinks Joe getting in the race will take away from Sanders.

No one in the establishment wants Sanders to win on either side.

Did he say anything about Trump?

8. ...Hillary's atrocious handling of her email stuff means Cheney didn't have to talk about Trump.

Far easier to cluck about what's going on over on our side, then address the train wreck that is the GOP, huh Dick?
