Former Vice President Dick Cheney stepping into the Benghazi fray to
make a statement that is just breathtaking:

“I think it’s one of the worst incidents, frankly, that I can recall in
my career.”

Yup, because four dead ranks right up there with thre 3,000+ who died on
9-11 during Cheney's watch, the Katrina disaster on Cheney's watch, and,
of course, the two wars Cheney lied us into.

Why wasn't Cheney prosecuted?

Sometimes it is hard to take some of your comments seriously Harry
because you are so adamantly opposed to anything other than the liberal
way.
Like the ultra right crackpots who see things only through self designed
filters, you seem to view politics, big business and social issues
through your own set of filters. If there's no room for
reconsideration from time to time as things change or for the serious
consideration of other points of view, then you are no more open minded
than the republican lunatics that you detest so much.



The subject under discussion is a comment Dick Cheney made. Is there
something in that statement that rings true? How can he rank the deaths
of four Americans, a tragedy to be sure, but a minor one, as one of the
"worst" incidents he can recall in his career, when his career included
a number of "incidents" in which he was involved that make the deaths of
four people little more than a sad blip?

I blame Cheney far more than Bush for our foreign policy "misadventures"
in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bush is a simple man who was brought up by
decent parents, and I am sure Cheney saw that and lied and misled Bush
to the best of his ability. I don't think that it is my "liberalism"
that makes me feel Cheney is disgusting.
