Showing Original Post only (View all)Cheney: Obama is 'worst president of my lifetime' [View all]
fuck this fucking fucked up fuck
Dick Cheney is not a big fan of President Obama (and vice-versa).
In an interview published in Playboy, Cheney called Obama "the worst president in my lifetime," and that his damaging legacy will endure.
"I used to have significant criticism of Jimmy Carter," said the former Republican vice president. "But compared to Barack Obama and the damage he is doing to the nation it's a tragedy, a real tragedy, and we are going to pay a hell of a
price just trying to dig out from under his presidency."
Cheney attacked Obama's foreign policy, including a "precipitous withdrawal" and the status of the U.S. military.

I'd say Reagan was the worst, because Shrub was never actually the President.

Wasn't that "precipitous withdrawal" in accordance with an agreement that his "president" signed?
