HURTING DICK CHENEY'S FEELINGS....

Dick Cheney offered quite a bit of nonsense on Fox News yesterday, but perhaps the most entertaining thing was hearing him talk about how the Obama White House has hurt his feelings. Apparently, the current president was supposed to seek out the former vice president for advice on national security matters.

*** "I guess the other thing that offends the hell out of me, frankly, Chris, is we had a track record now of eight years of defending the nation against any further mass casualty attacks from Al Qaeda. The approach of the Obama administration should be to come to those people who were involved in that policy and say, 'How did you do it? What were the keys to keeping this country safe over that period of time?'"

Got that? What Obama really ought to do, according to Dick Cheney, is seek out the former vice president's advice and follow it. After all, Cheney believes he's proven himself on the issue.

Cheney thinks it was a sterling success when it came to national security and counter-terrorism. Perhaps there's something to this. After all, except for the catastrophic events of 9/11, and the anthrax attacks against Americans, and terrorist attacks against U.S. allies, and the terrorist attacks against U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Bush's inability to capture those responsible for 9/11, and waging an unnecessary war that inspired more terrorists, and the success terrorists had in exploiting Bush's international unpopularity, the Bush/Cheney record on counter-terrorism was awesome.

1. Classic school yard bully

That is all he is when you scratch his veneer. Only way to deal with a bully is to expose him.

5. Yup, someone pushes back against the bully and they morph into the wounded puppy

A regular formula.

[CanonRay]

2. Sometimes I think he actually believes his own B.S.

He is a very delusional and dangerous man.

3. Cheney has feelings?

Who knew?

[alsame]

4. "any further mass casualty attacks" - Bushco does not get

a pass for 9/11. Not from me. It happened on their watch, they are responsible.

6. As my good friend, Bob Dylan, once said...

"There's no success like failure
And failure's no success at all."

7. Wait while I dig deep for a particle of concern for a war criminal's feelings

Watch your children grow; your grandchildren get born and grow up ...then have children of their on while you're waiting...Oh, look! The sun burned out.

8. It'd be interesting if Obama invited Cheney to the White House for a chat ...

... and grilled him on the track record of utter disasters during the Cheney/Bush years ... and how they blew it. Totally.

[BarbaRosa]

9. Eight years?

just asking

[Cresent City Kid]

10. Obama should ask Cheney everything he would do

and write them down on a sheet of paper titled " What Not to Do".

[LynnTheDem]

11. Yeah great "track record" there Cheney. Other than the first attack you ignored warnings of, eh.

Yeah, I'd brag about such a "track record".

Neither do I.
