Cheney: Support for Israel Feeds Terrrorism

If we hear in the coming days that former Vice President Dick Cheney has fired one of his speechwriters — or perhaps grounded Lynne or Liz — it will be clear why.

Oozing out of the sleazy speech he gave Thursday at the American Enterprise Institute was an inadvertent truth regarding the Israeli albatross hanging around the neck of U.S. policy in the Middle East.

1. This is one of those topics I hate to touch, but this is both fascinating and unexpected coming from

Dick (PNAC) Cheney, if true. It sounds bogus.

What was his prior stance on his views towards Iran?

3. And what does this teach us (also inadvertently)? That Ray McGovern is the anti-Cheney.
That would make him just as big a piece of shit.

4. I guess I'm not getting why the CIC doesn't declare him an enemy combatant
and waterboard the heck out of him, till he spills the beans on how he has been encouraging religious extremists to attack America.
Admits to torture and murder for war-profiteering.

The cows would come home in a condign comeuppance..

But, we are better that that, even if it might serve justice and calm down extremism all around the world.

5. Thankfully, we are no longer paying for people to vet what Darth says...
and explain to him why what he wants to say isn't helping his cause. He's going to continue to put both feet into it at every opportunity.

Regardless, I don't see where he thinks it may be beneficial to piss off the Likudniks. Those fuckers are mean and dangerous.

Well, here's hoping DICK has many, many opportunities to speak his mind in every imaginable forum until he finally ends up in either a U.S. court or the Hague.
