Leahy Agrees With Schultz: Cheney Wants Terrorist Attack On USA
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 04/21/2009 5:45:37 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

It’s one thing for the host of a new MSNBC show, trolling for ratings in Olbermann-land, to make outrageous accusations against a former Vice-President. It’s altogether a different matter for a sitting United States Senator to second the slander.

Yet that’s just what happened on this evening’s Ed Show. Host Schultz accused Dick Cheney of wanting America to be “hit again” by terrorists. A few minutes later, Sen. Pat Leahy of Vermont agreed with him.

ED SCHULTZ: I think that Dick Cheney wants this country to get hit again for political gain. I believe that he thinks in his mind if we can think, make them think, the enemy, that we’re weak because Obama can’t stand up for us, we’re going to get hit, and then of course we can paint the picture that the Democrats just can’t get the job done on national security. I think Cheney is that mean.

Duck Cheney wants a terorist attack on the USA? Is this “Opposite Land”? I think Leahy and Schultz ought to sever their relationship with the creature.

Cheney is just saying it like it is.....

.....Obama is setting us up for another, maybe a series of attacks.

You can't make nice with terrorists and get away with it.

Lord help us! These people are going to get us all killed. They have no idea, Cheney is trying to wake these idiots up.

Are they trying to cover their arses if/when we do get hit by saying “Cheney called it”.

If I was a little more paranoid, I would think Obama was setting us up for more attacks so he could push through more of his agenda.

The left is just projecting their hatefulness on Cheney. The left for the last 6 have been jumping for joy everytime body bags came home from Iraq. The left only cares about political gain at any costs, and they assume others do also.

like a bullfighter waving a red flag, they keep talking about the administration that isn't.

What about the one that is?
