DC Smackdown: Advanatge Cheney

1) Yes it is.

2) It isn't mine.

3) Here's the site.

4) I have no financial interest, direct, or indirect, in the site, except that I'm going to spend my *own* money to buy one of their shirts soon.

Cheers!

No, I just think it would have been really great if our people (supposedly conservative/GOP) would have provided some support of their president. Yet, all that filled the threads, all that fills every comment even today is some form of putdown on Bush. We realize you would have been far superior as president - but somehow you and the other critics were not elected. Bush put himself out there, ran the government as he felt best and I for one thank him for being the man that stood (by himself) against the enemy, the democrats, the international leaders, the UN, the critics, the propaganda media. No wonder he did not defend himself - he had a massive job to do without support.

Where are the GOP people now as Cheney is out there alone doing the work for them in challenging Obama? You will note they are not backing Cheney - they are cowering in their power seats.

Just be glad you no longer have the worthless Bush. He did nothing of value so I presume you have no problem with Obama cancelling all of the executive orders Bush put into place.

We are in a new world and you will have plenty to criticize but you may never again have such a man as George Bush with Cheney, Rice, Rove steering this country. Enjoy the sleepless nights as you watch this country fall from within.

Conservaatives do not know how to fight the dems and will always lose because they are just like you - computer screen critics shredding their own election politicians because they are just not the ideal they expected.

I too felt he should have defended himself and since he did not, I have spent 8 years daily defending him against the hateful comments from “conservatives”. Sorry, I did not have time to go to DU and try and counter the negative talk there.

So, I see red when I run across more of the same. I’m tired and extremely worried about my country now. No more trust in government, no more the security of having a man who will defend this country against all outside forces wherever he might be. He just did not defend himself.

Of course, it should not have been hard to have fellow conservatives/GOP voters be able to see that politics means you get done what you can when you can and that each president comes into office with beliefs in his own views and will naturally try and get those things done. But this man was blindsided by an attack on America here.

One man cannot do all by himself. Somewhere, there are going to have to be those that will help a president. Just watch how the democrats support their president. I sure do not see criticism against him from “his side”. I see utter support.

And I am scared to death of what that will do to this country.

Time to get over Bush and start trying to save this country. You don’t have him to do it for you anymore - he is retired.

I am glad Bush isn't still President, if he was that would mean the law against serving more than two terms would be violated. Bush did a lot to hurt conservatism, the RNC still wants to push Bush like, or worse McCain like, candidates down our throats. Bush did a crappy over all job, the main reason being he failed to defend himself and he wouldn't enforce immigration law, plus he wanted his cronies to be appointed to the bench(Remember Harriet and the anger he displayed because he had to pull her?).

He wasn't perfect and the mistakes he made allowed Bozo to be elected, if you can't see that I am sorry for you because you will make the mistake of trying to put another Bush in the WH in the future.

I support Presidents when they do things I think are right for the country and for Freedom. I strongly supported Ron Reagan altho he wasn't perfect either, but a lot closer than either Bush ever was. I even supported Nixon until the idiot broke the law, uselessly I might add, trying to win re-election.

A smart person recognizes the failures of those who are leading, even if that person is in the same political party. Bush was a failure in many ways. I am glad he listened to Cheney on national defense, but I wish he would have fought back against the media, I wish he would have stopped illegals, I wish he would have been a lot better on domestic issues and I wish he would speak out now and back up Dick Cheney, but true to his "take the high ground" idiocy he does not.
