Or, perhaps not. Her “loser” status may tarnish her severely. The Dems have to think twice about having their position championed by a loser who is on her way out.
Iraq was a clear blunder. I didn’t see it at the time and I’ll have to admit I was a reluctant and very mild supporter.
To think that democracy in any form could be imposed or successfully offered to the Iraqis was truly naive and as far as I’m concerned, any Iraqi high school student could have seen and stated that exact point. The whole premise of Islam is that a religious figure is the supreme power or leader. To impose a political system where a man or a man-made structure of laws might be imposed is/was to ask the Iraqis to renounce their religion. And any student of history knows that this is the hardest thing there is to do. Bowing to Mecca 5x a day, the request the renunciation of the universality of Islamism in Iraqi (or any Arab) culture is the longest of long shot bets. Completely and totally ignoring any possible influence from neighboring Arab/Islamist states. The Iraqis had no experience with democracy, they had no innate craving for it; they’re not into individual rights, indeed, they rigorously oppose any imagined rights of the individual. So, you’re gonna ask the Iraqis to renounce their religion in favor of an abstract, unknown concept that none of them are clamoring for and stand ready to attack and kill them should they not go along. Yeah, that’ll fly.
Can’t wait ‘til Hageman teams up with MTG and the other MAGA warriors in the House.
Speak for yourself. I never looked up to the Bush or Cheney clans.
That sounds right.
She’d be perfect for “The View,” though. Screechy, angry, obsessed, full of hate…she ticks all the boxes.
She can take over Chris Wallace’s spot at CNN lol
Good for Rand Paul for enjoying it publicly.
I just knew he would say something so I checked his twitter and there it was... 😂😂
Yeah... watch, she'll run for president in '24 and siphon off Republican voters from whomever is the Republican nominee setting up a situation where the demonrats don't have to cheat as much to win.
>>She’s gone!!<<
What a blowout! lol
I think the big takeaway for Liz this morning over her first cup of coffee.
Damn, noone likes me.
Rand Paul: “Bye Liz”

Good one Rand!
Bye and good riddance.
Jan. We got until then to shut her up..which is impossible in her case.
Friggan sow!
Kudos to Rand Paul for being (like myself) against Liz Cheney BEFORE it was cool with the Trumpies and the "Tea Party" crowd.
I'd like to add, however, that Princess Liz has also been wrong and damaging on DOMESTIC policy too (like cheering on the legalization of homo marriage before pretending to be against it so she could run in a GOP primary)
Hissy Lizzy has just received the Eric Cantor treatment, and none too soon!
