Obama goes first in a few minutes. He's speaking at the rotunda of the National Archives (you think we could get Nicholas Cage on that birth certificate thingey?) on his Gitmo policy and other man-caused calamities.
Vice President Cheney gets the rebuttal time. He's speaking at the American Enterprise Institute around 10:45 a.m. EDT.
TOPICS: Foreign Affairs; News/Current Events; War on Terror

Would it be OK to put a vice president on Mt. Rushmore?

There are no gray areas with VP Cheney—it’s black and white,
right and wrong “no middle ground”—none of this dangerous BS that’s going to get us all killed that HolyO is an expert at!

OMG where was this man for 8 years!!!! Just doing his job, protecting the USA, and upholding the US Constitution.
As opposed to liberal trash whose sole aspiration is to look good, sound good, and tear down this country.
That man's every sentence stabs deep into the liberal heart.

I wish the GOP could grow a set like Cheney, but I don’t see it now.
I wonder if the “leadership” of the GOP is currently hiding in the closet holding their stuffed animals?

To: kempster
did he say it’s hard to imagine a worst precedent or president? LOL! That was my first reaction. I believe it was "precedent".
But I kinda think he deliberately pronounced it in a manner that it could be taken either way.
I don't know if the Obamination is still there but I'd love to see his face in reaction to this smack down. GO, CHENEY, GO!

No middle ground in war on terror, you don’t keep some nuclear weapons out, you keep them all out.

“Phony moralizing”.
Yep, I love it. I can't wait to read the transcipts of both these speeches. The difference between the two is astounding.
Cheney is doing a great job of chastizing Obama, et al, like the group of little punks that they are.

I LOVE DICK CHENEY!
He’s giving the unvarnished truth to the world ... point by point.
“phoney outrage” = Pelosi and company
Ball is now in the weak sister 0’s court.
There’s NOTHING he can credibly say to counter
this magnificent missive by VP Cheney.
