Live Thread: Obama vs. Cheney
Thursday, May 21, 2009 | Kristinn

Posted on 05/21/2009 7:11:47 AM PDT by kristinn

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.

cheney should have been pres bush’s speechwriter

Bush should have been President Cheney's ranch foreman.

Citizen Cheney just inspired me to put out my flag. It’s a little early for Memorial Day but it seems right.

And zer0 has only himself to blame for the timing and Cheney's opportunity to rebut a miserable, self-serving and factually-inaccurate speech immediately afterwards and on international tv.

Cheney was scheduled to speak months ago. 0bama chose to speak prior to Cheney to make it look like he is picking a fight with 0bama.

“Certainly one of the most viewed, most accurate and best-timed smackdowns of any sitting leader in history.”

They fired the Air Force One flyover guy.
Maybe Obama will throw someone under the bus for the timing here.

Of course this admin leaked top secret intel.

That is what happens when the Commander in Chief has not been properly vetted for the job and has never had to undergo the invasive and extensive background check required for TS clearance. Heck, even the WH janitor has had to provide more background info for his job.

Chrissy’s spin will be, ‘its an unprecedented scathing attack on a sitting president by a former VP!!!’ there will be no debate on the actual substance of the criticism.

And he damn well should direct another speech at the Republican officials now in office. Shrinking bunch of cowards and wimps. Not one of them has stood up and said what should be said every day, not one has the stones of Dick Cheney.

Two questions:

1. Why couldn’t Cheney have been president the last 8 years?
2. Why couldn’t we have heard information like this for he last 8 years from anybody but talk radio?

“Dick Cheney is a National Treasure. Protecting this country runs is in his essence. He has no political motivations.”

Cheney is golden. Against him, zer0 has no chance. What a hell of a debate that could’ve been, had Cheney been the nominee. Cheney would’ve wiped the floor with zer0.
