Yep.

And it’s usually childish.

How does this make you feel?

Do you support Cheney? Do you agree?

Is the republican party worse now than it was in 2003?
You're quoting Liz Cheney, who is reporting what her father says. If Dick himself came out and had something to say I would listen. I don't trust Liz quite as much, so I don't care what she says.


It is an unchallenged fact that more people voted for the Republican candidate in 2020 than ever before. So I think the party is in pretty good shape.
It is not known exactly how many people voted for the Democrat, but whatever the number is, he will receive fewer votes if he runs again.
So I think we're OK. But I sure appreciate your concern.

Cheney the hardcore globalist belongs in chains someplace that makes a dungeon look like paradise...

Dick Cheney intended to create a new American empire in Iraq, the heart of the Middle East. That's why we went t war there and why there never was an exist strategy for leaving afterwards.

He set about doing it before he became Bush's Vice President.
Cheney was instrumental in the creation of The Project For the New American Century, a think tank developed to find ways to create this new empire and keep it under American control.

Robert Kagan and William Kristol were both co-founders with him, and the group included Paul Wolfowitz, R. James Woolsey, Elliot Abrams, Donald Rumsfeld, Robert Zoellick, and John Bolton. The gourd was founded in 1998, long before the 2000 election.

To set it in motion, Cheney was asked to be G.W. Bush's advisor in choosing Bush's cabinet. As you can see from the list above, Cheny packed the Cabinet with other members of The New American Century, and then nominated himself to be Bush's Vice President.

Cheney envisioned Washington D.C. as the New Rome, with our citizens as his Legions who could conquer and hold the world's oil supply by the force of arms forever.
With an indifferent, naive President in office, who was more than willing to turn the machinery of government over to his Vice President, Cheney nearly got it accomplished.
You left out the part about PNAC hoping for "a new Pearl Harbor" that they could use as a pretext for invasion. Of course, three years later, they conveniently (and suspiciously) got that new Pearl Harbor when the Twin Towers came down.

He must be focusing on this to help him get over the fact that he's responsible for thousands and thousands of dead Americans. Not to mention the other 10's of thousands that are mentally gone from ever living a normal life.

Unlike, Donald Trump and Mike Pence, Dick Cheney was a very competent leader.

I'll say one thing for him, he was such a good ventriloquist that you could never see his lips moving as he worked his puppet, W. It almost seemed like W really was the president, that's how good Cheney was.

Anyone connected to Bush hates the real conservatives such as the Freedom Caucus.... the Bush legacy is done.. Jeb is not going to be president.
