Dick Cheney was always an @sshole. It’s just that you can say it now without getting banished from FR.

I voted for Trump because I got tired of living in a country where draft-dodging globalists piss away thousands of lives and trillions of dollars on military campaigns in sh!t-holes all over the world while facilitating an invasion by Third World peasants here at home.

I allow others to say that without getting too worked up
over it. I know there is disagreement here.

At the time Europe was getting a lot of his petroleum products
through the Straights of Hormuz.

I’m not going into all of it, but Hussein was very problematic
and we went in.

The Arab world pretty much backed us when we did. That
alone was a real improvement, that they trusted us enough
to join in.

I didn’t think it was a bad thing then. I don’t today.

Bush was on the level of Jimmy Carter > IMO. Yes he was
a little better than that, but not by much.

Cheney had leadership experience, and some savvy. It
seemed to me he did the heavy lifting.

I didn’t care.
