He's right. Obama is certainly no Dick Cheney.

America would be much better off if he were.

***Bowlsheet. Every time someone asks him about the latest scandal, he says he learned about it from the news.

I don’t think anyone has ever accused him of being a Cheney.

As for Dick, can’t say the same thing.

HAHA.

DU and other wack-left sites must be going crazy realizing that Obama and Cheney's policies on this issue are the same.

(In other words Obama was a total hypocrite when he bashed Bush-Cheney over this stuff only to use the left to get their support and the left wing is now realizing it).
