Maybe if you're nice, clean the bowl regularly, and feed him well he'll help you reach that level someday, but I doubt it.

The thing about Chicken Dick is this:

He's always wrong, but never in doubt.

Carry on.

There sure is a lot of misinformation about Cheney!

He did not have the authorization to "send sons off to die."

WMD was not the only reason to resume military action in Iraq.

Many Democrats, including Bill & Hillary Clinton, Al Gore and John Kerry, were making the same claims about WMD. Because they were relying on info supplied to them just like G.W. Bush was (he was the president; not Cheney).

Forget it. CDS and BDS is still running in epidemic proportions among liberals.

How can any criticism from that man have any credibility when Cheney presided over:

-Worst attack on American soil in history all because Bush/Cheney ignored intelligence.
Bush Received More Warnings About 9/11 Than We Realized - Business Insider

-3 trillion dollar war that led to thousands of our troops killed and maimed all because they had "faulty intelligence. Selling the Iraq war: Experts knew the intel was faulty. Why didn't they blow the whistle? | MSNBC

- the formation of ISIS which began around 2005 as a direct result of the Iraq war.
Diving Deep into the Origins of ISIS | Tony Blair Faith Foundation

-a scheduled withdrawal from Iraq that Bush/Cheney negotiated.

-proliferation of Iran nuclear weapons.
David Ignatius - Bush's Iran Policy Has Failed

-most disastrous economic recession since the great depression.

Because he's a million times smarter than Obama?

Of course not.

And The Winner For The Most Iraq War Contracts Is . . . KBR, With $39.5 Billion In A Decade

Quote:
The No. 1 recipient?

Houston-based energy-focused engineering and construction firm KBR, Inc. (NYSE:KBR), which was spun off from its parent, oilfield services provider Halliburton Co. (NYSE:HAL), in 2007.

The company was given $39.5 billion in Iraq-related contracts over the past decade, with many of the deals given without any bidding from competing firms, such as a $568-million contract renewal in 2010 to provide housing, meals, water and bathroom services to soldiers, a deal that led to a Justice Department lawsuit over alleged kickbacks, as reported by Bloomberg.

These guys wreck the economy, and then complain that Obama hasn't fixed it fast enough. They blow a hole in the deficit, and then complain that Obama hasn't quite filled it yet. They pursue a disastrous war in Iraq, and then complain that Obama ruined it all by not leaving a few more brigades behind. They twiddle their thumbs over Iran, and then complain that Obama's nuclear deal isn't quite to their liking.

It's hard to believe that even their own supporters still listen to a word they say.
Actually, no, it isn't that hard to believe, one only need spend a few days on this forum and read the utter, unadulterated, abject ignorance and you would understand how Richard Cheney and George Walker Bush still have supporters.
