cheney Slams Obama's 'Politicized' Probe of CIA Interrogations...the dick returns
this criminal lying, torturing motherfucker has 'doubts about Obama's policies'....go fuck yourself dick, if it weren't for fake news, no one would hear your shit.


~snip~Calling it a "terrible decision" that undermines national security and devastates CIA morale, former Vice President Dick Cheney slammed the Obama administration's probe of aggressive interrogation of terrorists.

"It's an outrageous political act that will do great damage, long-term, to our capacity to be able to have people take on difficult jobs, make difficult decisions, without having to worry about what the next administration is going to say," Cheney told "FOX News Sunday" in a no-holds-barred interview.

In blunt, unsparing language, Cheney accused President Obama of setting a "terrible precedent" by allowing an "intensely partisan, politicized look back at the prior administration."

He said the decision by Attorney General Eric Holder to launch a probe into alleged abuse of prisoners under the prior administration "offends the hell out of me," as he seemed to question Obama's fitness as commander-in-chief.

"I have serious doubts about his policies," Cheney told FOX News' Chris Wallace in Jackson Hole, Wyo. "Serious doubts, especially, about the extent to which he understands and is prepared to do what needs to be done to defend the nation."

1. better source than faux news....msnbc....cheney: Politics driving probe of CIA
WASHINGTON - Besieged during the Bush administration for bending to the White House's will, the Justice Department is again accused of playing politics with cases — this time in investigating whether CIA interrogators illegally abused terror suspects.

The new charges were led Sunday by former Vice President Dick Cheney, who called the preliminary probe ordered last week by Attorney General Eric Holder an "outrageous political act that will do great damage, long term."

"I just think it's an outrageous precedent to set, to have this kind of, I think, intensely partisan, politicized look back at the prior administration," Cheney said in an interview aired on "Fox News Sunday."

4. I do hope it affects his digestion and sleep patterns.
I keep thinking, "What is it you know you've done that you are sure the American people will NOT swallow or overlook? We've overlooked malfeasance, lies, torture, assassination...what have you done that's WORSE?"

7. For guys like the Dickster...
things like enforcing THE LAW is merely politics.

"I have serious doubts about his policies," Cheney told FOX News' Chris Wallace in Jackson Hole, Wyo. "Serious doubts, especially, about the extent to which he understands and is prepared to do what needs to be done to defend the nation."

Aaaah! The old "we must destroy the village to save the village" mentality. In short, Cheney believes the Constitution is null and void at the WHIM of the President. Give this guy an "emergency" and he will rape, pillage, burn and murder anyone that pisses him off.

Cheney believes there is two Americas - him and rich bastard friends and the rest of us.
