Like many Freepers I liked Cheney’s unapologetic style, and Rumsfeld’s and Bush’s. Let’s be clear here though. Bad-ass in-your-face attitude when everyone else is turning tail and running is refreshing, but it is NOT CONSERVATISM. Cheney, Bush, Rumsfeld and the rest of them are somewhere between Moderate Republicans and neocons. I can tolerate them for a time especially when they are playing a useful role in the midst of international conflict, but let’s cut the hero worship crap. Now that the discussion is about an out-of-control Marxist attempting to create an all-powerful, all-knowing State versus privacy and civil liberties, it’s time for those guys to shut up. Until this country is back to normal and the derailed Bill of Rights is put back on its tracks, I want to hear from Rand Paul and others like him.
Well stated.
Moreover, we don't need 0bama supported in any respect by Bush and Cheney, and yet isn't that just what they've done? Anti-Constitution, Big Guv Statists one and all.
