Cheney: History will say Bush made America ’safer’ and ‘more hopeful.’
:rofl: Who knew that Crashcart was a comedian?


from ThinkProgress:



Cheney: History will say Bush made America ’safer’ and ‘more hopeful.’»

Speaking in front of more than 400 people Friday night during a sold-out reception at a hotel in downtown Tulsa, Oklahoma, Dick Cheney said that history will be very favorable to the Bush presidency:

“When the history is written, it will be said this is a safer country and more hopeful world because George Bush was president,” Cheney said.

2. Cheney must be operating from different definitions of "safer" and
"hopeful" than the rest of us.

4. "The history" that will be written at chimpy's library "think tank"?
As credible as "the math" that Rove studied.

7. The same history that says "We'll be greeted as liberators" and "Last throes."
What a tool!

12. Maybe in reaction to Bush
Bush has raised the awareness of an entire generation of Americans regarding the kind of President we must avoid. That might make us safer from now on and give us more hope for the future.

16. Oh, let's not talk about what someone actually said
Let's make someone talk about what someone else said. It took the Today show nearly two minutes this morning, but they got their obligatory Rev. Wright mention in again right off the top. Meanwhile, Cheney's increasingly delusional public remarks go by without notice or comment in the major media, and which do you think will have more of an effect on the lives of Americans: What some preacher said in a sermon years ago or what the Vice President said over the weekend?

17. I've never seen an administration so obsessed with what "history" will decide.
It's a hallmark of a disasterous administration.

18. Someday Dick you will pay for your crimes.
In the history books and your offspring will be hated and loathed, just like George Bush and his evil dad. You assholes will be condemed for the hatred and war you spread among the ME and at home. You will be remembered as the fascist bastards who came up with 'homeland' and flying your stupid leader onto the deck of an aircraft carrier.

Don't worry Dick, you fucked your kids and their kids futures up pretty bad. Everyone will spit their names and hiss yours.




Oh and PS: you fucking suck and will be remembered as the world's second biggest failure. You couldn't even get that one right!
