My favorite part of the video is the skinny old dude who cannot manage to pull the sign out of the young woman's hand, and seems to have broken a nail trying.
By the way this is how the White House responded to Cheney's criticism of the Iran deal.
I think we refer to that as checkmate.
But when they're confronted for their actions,they will stubbornly argue that they were right $$$$$$$$
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to see how Cheney responds to this. I mean, he MUST know how slam dunk easy it is to absolutely discredit his opinion on ANYTHING. Did he just decide to ignore that? Did he think nobody would fight back? Or does he have a snarky reply all loaded up and waiting on the launch pad (that will surely backfire in his face)?
DeleteI'd prefer seeing an anvil or an ACME safe fall on his head like in the road runner and coyote cartoons.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, like the coyote, his head is so hard it won't harm him. He'd just walk away to spew more crap later.
DeleteI can't believe people actually clapped when she was escorted out. Have they been in a ccoma these past 13 years? Cheney was evil then and is evil now.
ReplyDeleteWell, it was a function of the AEI - aka the Dick Cheney Fan Club.
DeleteCol. Wilkerson is not a fan however:

He even has a cold, calculating voice like one would expect of Satan himself.
ReplyDeleteActually looked like he got fabric burns on his soft hands from pulling on the sign.
ReplyDeleteI agree that every time he speaks someone should be there to interrupt this evil man. Someone should tell him that s is no longer VP and no one cares about him or his stupid daughter.
ReplyDeleteI loved the fact that little woman got the better of that idiot trying to yake her banner away from her!
May he be waterboarded forever and a day!
ReplyDeleteThis is off subject a tad, but why wasn't there media coverage when the personal guard for Donald Trump knocked a guy in the head at one of the rallies? The guy was much smaller and looked like he could have been Mexican. It was caught on video.
ReplyDeleteThe personal guard - tall and bald headed and seen always with Trump - was pissed about a sign someone was holding and tried to destroy it when the little guy tried to stop him and got walloped in the head.
No coverage from the media at all. Should have been!!!
I is amazing how similar the republicans/conservatives are promoting not votiing for this and how they promoted the Iraq war in 2003.
ReplyDeleteLying on such a scale as they are doing should be punishable. I hope we do not start another war for Israel and this agreement is a major way to prevent one!
It was all over the news. Google "donald trump security guard hits man" and see for yourself.
ReplyDeleteRepublican Lawrence Wilkerson on Dick Cheney: 'This is a man who's lost his mind'
ReplyDeleteChris Hayes included a Fox News clip where Chris Wallace reminded a willful history revising Dick Cheney that during the Bush/Cheney administration Iran went from 0 to 5,000 centrifuges. Wallace suggested that Cheney left a mess for the Obama administration.
Republican Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, chief of staff to Secretary of State General Colin Powell, was introduced. (Colin Powell endorsed the Iran Nuclear agreement this weekend.) Chris Hayes asked Wilkerson about Cheney's apocalyptic warning about the Iran deal. Lawrence Wilkerson did not mince words.
"I have been searching for a single word that would describe Dick Cheney," Wilkerson said. "And I am afraid the only one that I can think of is 'insanity'. It's a deliberate, it's a methodical, it's a lucid, often lucid insanity. But it is insanity nonetheless. He can't recognize reality. He can't recognize the truth. The good thing Chris, for this country is that Independents, Republicans, and Democrats wish he would just go away now. He has almost no influence. You saw the influence he has virtually by numbers. Those at the AEI today that listened to his speech, that's about it."...........
Lawrence Wilkerson pointed out that Dick Cheney was once a brilliant strategist. He said Cheney changed after nine eleven. "All of a sudden he's turned into this person who cannot recognize reality," Wilkerson said. "I can't explain it. Maybe its physiological. Maybe it's biological. Maybe 9/11 did something to him. ... He is simply devoid of reason and he doesn't recognize reality anymore."
Wilkerson went on to make the point that Dick Cheney was using the same fear-mongering technique used by Joseph McCarty. At the end Wilkerson makes the Defense Industrial Complex / Dick Cheney association.
"Cheney is a millionaire now," Wilkerson said. "So maybe I am assuming his insanity and maybe I am wrong. Maybe he sees this as a way, as a route to success and it turned out to be profitable. His personal finances now are quite well established. He is a multi-millionaire. This is a man who in 1998, Chris, said most forcefully as CEO of Halliburton, that sanctions were not working, that they wouldn't work unless they were comprehensive and international. And he wanted to do deals with Iran. And so he was bashing sanctions up one wall and down the other. This is a man who's lost his mind."
Any more question about Dick Cheney or his motives?
