The election of Barack Obama as President seems to have driven the barely sane over the edge.
Edited on Tue Dec-01-09 06:00 PM by ProSense
After inheriting a country and world fucked up by war criminals Bush and Cheney, it appears the lunatics aren't happy that their reign of terror is over.

Hoyer unloads on Cheney

In his weekly pen-and-pad session with reporters, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer blasted former Vice President Cheney over his recent criticism of President Obama's approach to Afghanistan.

"We are clearly not making the same mistake the Bush administration made," Hoyer said. "They started something and didn't finish it, and they left it to this administration to clean up."

Hoyer added, "When Mr. Cheney talks about President Obama's giving the thoughtful consideration (about war policy) that he is somehow dissembling, frankly they turned tail. That is pretty tough language, but I get angry when I hear Vice President Cheney talk about a job that they started but didn't finish and was worse in 2008 in December than it was six years previous."

Fuck off Dick.

1. I think many of those will come back from the edge with the announcement of escalation.
War Obama!

5. Because I didn't feel like it?
That OK with you?

Why not start your own thread? Take a break for your "Pro" obsession.

4. Such an unfounded assumption: that they were barely sane.
Sure, it has pushed them further over the edge; but many likely were already past the edge to start with.
