more on Cheney from the Daily Show

Daily Show: 1994 Dick Cheney vs. Post-9/11 Dick Cheney

It’s really amazing to contrast these two Cheneys. The latter Ceney would argue that “9/11 changed everything,” but what did Saddam have to do with those attacks? According to President Bush, nothing. Whatever else you might say about Dick Cheney, he is not a dumb guy. The 1994 Dick Cheney was dead on about what would happen if we toppled Saddam Hussein. Hell, even Bush 41 and Brent Scrowcroft advanced the same argument back in 1998. Other than having a President whose strings you can pull, what else could have changed Cheney’s world view since then? I wonder….

This is pretty amazing. Cheney knows full well the "quagmire" (his own words!) that we would be in if we tried to topple Saddam, and yet he lied flat out to the American people.
Motherfucker should be tried for treason, not be the vice-president....

Once again, the Daily Show does the job that the mainstream news media should be doing...
