And it’s a glass jaw. Rush’s observation was that The First Thug looked pissed, as though anyone would DARE criticize his wisdom...

I wonder what his mother considered to be “the truth” of those documents? Socialists are infamous for double-speak. But on the positive side, it certainly shows up the clarity of Mr Cheney’s words by contrast. How refreshing.

Good catch ... Thanks

This is a good article, too.

“(it’s hard to use anothing other than a martial or pugilistic metaphor)”

If you can’t find a decent metaphor, how about you just call it what it actually was?

Great reading, and right-on. Glad Cheney isn’t taking any crap from Zero while the rest of the Republicans can’t find the spine to help our distinguished former VP carry the water.

BIG Bttt!

[skeeter]

As the article says, Cheney is "marking his card" in the event the US under the Obama Administration is hit again.

THAT is why the left went ballistic today.

My father came to these shores in search of the promise that they offer.

And then quickly bailed.

My mother made me rise before dawn to learn their truths when I lived as a child in a foreign land."

Does anyone really believe this? His mom woke him up early in Indonesia to teach him about the Constitution and the greatness of America?

Well a google search reveals that the first Muslim prayer of the day in Indonesia should occur about an hour before sunrise, so the truth is probably written in the Khoran

Most Americans do not favour torture but do want the CIA and other agencies to question suspected terrorists very vigorously indeed if there is any chance they might know something about an attack on the US homeland.

Not exactly. Most Americans cheer on Jack Bauer and his decision making process vis-a-vis interrogation techniques, right up to his last few hours when Jack went native.

Fantastic article! The title should be 10 of the MANY punches......

[Parley Baer]

Cheney’s speech was serious, sober and filled with facts. Obama’s speech was shrill and of a campaign style and not backed by facts but his opinion.

This is pure unadulterated BS. One of those Clintonoid lies that can't be fact checked because the only witnesses are dead. The last thing his communist skank mother would have had him read was any American document, unless they were looking for loopholes.

[Senator_Blutarski]

Cheney is the real deal. He is factual, he is reasonable and he has perspective based on a deep well of experience.

Obama, on the other hand, is just a punk from the Chicago political machine.

"Does anyone really believe this? His mom woke him up early in Indonesia to teach him about the Constitution and the greatness of America? "

I wonder if she did that before or after he answered the Islamic call to prayer.

[EDINVA]

Have any American journalists written a comparable article? Will any of us live that long ?

Go ahead, I'm all ears. What was that?
