W.H. counters Cheney with Biden - Carol E. Lee - POLITICO.com

Quote:
Vice President Joe Biden's appearances on two Sunday morning talk shows this week are part of a White House strategy to both pre-empt and potentially respond to former Vice President Dick Cheney's interview on ABC's "This Week," where administration officials expect he'll continue to advance his sharp critique of President Obama's record on national security.

Oh please. Bush always said the conditions on the ground would determine withdrawal. Obama had nothing to do with it, in fact it had been in the works for months.

Are you seriously denying that if we had followed obama's wrongheaded policy of cut and run in March of 2008, we would not be in a position to leave Iraq in relative peace? Or if we had followed Biden's wrongheaded policy of partitioning Iraq, we would not be able to leave in peace?

And the people they didn't keep safe on 9/11? Or will you continue to casually ignore them?

You can thank Clinton and his policies for that.

Should we just ignore the numerous attacks throughout the 90's, those attacks that went unanswered, that then led directly to 9/11?

Let me list them again for you;

First WTC
USS Cole
Tanzania/Kenya embassy bombings
Khobar Towers

It's a damned shame that it didn't do anything for the seven months prior to 9/11 except go on vacation.

Maybe the attack could have been prevented if we had had a real president who was paying attention and actually doing his job.

These two guys are no match for Dick Cheney, who is smart, and very articulate. He knows what he's talking about, unlike the two top clowns in the White House.

Obama and Biden have made such a mess and they aren't smart enough to figure out why things aren't improving, but getting "progressive[ly]" worse. And that's just the trouble.

Their world view is wrong, their premises are wrong, their "solutions" are wrong, and they have America headed in the wrong direction.

They are shining examples of why we must rid our culture and our government of liberals, once and for all, if we are to survive.

What is the cut off date for Republicans? Anything that happens before this date blame on Clinton and anything after this date blame on Obama.

It took that long to dismantle the "wall" erected by bubba, which prevented our intelligence agencies from communicating.

Man, Cheney puts out statments like Osama Bin Laden ... comes out spewing hate and delusion and then goes away for a little while.
So why send anyone?
