Cheney: ‘Stunned’ over Obama comparison between Mideast, Ferguson unrest
Foxnews.com ^

Posted on 09/25/2014 9:44:49 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

Former Vice President Dick Cheney said he was “stunned” that President Obama appeared to compare the unrest in the Middle East to the unrest in Ferguson, Mo., during his United Nations speech.

Cheney, speaking with Fox News on Wednesday, said it’s “outrageous” to suggest a “moral equivalence” between the two situations.

“I was stunned. I mean, in one case, you've got a police officer involved in a shooting. There may be questions about it. They'll be sorted out through the legal process. There's no comparison to that with what ISIS is doing to thousands of people throughout the Middle East, with bloody beheadings of anybody they come in contact with,” he said.

Join the club, Dick. We’ve spent the last 5 years being stunned at this assclown’s incompetence.

I’m surprised that Dick is surprised. No lie is to blatant for the lyin’king to spout.

I am stunned that Dick Cheney is stunned that 0bama compared the police in Ferguson MO to people who behead Christian children. I saw it coming from miles away. It is totally predictable and consistent with 0bama’s twisted mind.

Why should he be surprised to hear him tell the world how much he hates America?

Pray America wakes

Yup. Cheney's not stunned, he just had to say something acceptable for the media. He had Obama's number from Day One.

Cheney hasn’t seen the next phase of Ferguson protests yet.

“Stunned” isn’t the right word. We’ve come to expect this type of BS from Obama. “Disgusted” is probably a better term.

Why is he stunned?

Obama is a petty man who raises petty points.

I was stunned that Obama elevated ISIS to the same level as the liberal sacrament of racism. What’s next? Comparing them to back alley abortions?

I’m going to chuckle when it’s announced that Michael Brown’s finger print is on Officer Wilson’s gun.

Whoever's writing and proofing his speeches obviously attempts 'to link' their own bias to everything coming out of his mouth....

Obvious once again that it's not about the actual crisis at hand, it's about 'using it' first and foremost to his political advantage and agenda of...regardless of how stupid it sounds or incompetent he appears.

Yeah.... 0-Tard seems to literally live in an alternate reality of some kind.

Sometimes to hear liberals elaborate on things, you’d thing they were on a different dammed planet, or something. Truly bizarre. I think they are so seriously void of common sense, it borders on mental illness.

Unfortunately, there is a substantial constituency of “Americans” who hate America, and a lot of them hold powerful positions.
