    All the left can offer are personal jabs at Cheney. Nothing around the content of his article. Tells me all I need to know.

    Barry is reduced to trying to work with Iran, the biggest sponsor of state terrorism in the world today. Perspective.

    ...said the millionaire (billion?) who profited from using his position of power to start a war by lying to the entire country. You'd think he'd be let it go at that, but no, now he will try to extract himself from all that and use the whole thing as a political tool.

    Way to go, Dick.

    Geez you guys are slipping. No Obama pictures = deduction (looking at you basso) No use of "pathetic attempt" = deduction. No use of "libpig" = deduction. [-3]

    You do get some points for the classic, often used "All you can do is respond with insults" or variations of that. That line will now be graduated to the level of "pathetic attempt" and will need to be included in every post in D&D from here on out. [+1]

    Thread is in the negative so lets start taking things seriously now. Election is coming up.

    You know, texxx, at some point it is a good idea to engage your 'enemies' with dialogue and diplomacy. I suppose your plan would just keep Iran a 'terrorist nation' in perpetuity?

    I, for one, welcome talks with Iran. Let's find some common ground and move our diplomatic relationship further.

    And you should never expect anyone to read anything that Dick Cheney has to say. He is a proven liar and idiot. He lost the privilege of having his opinion seriously considered.

    Dick Cheney offers that there must be a world order with America at its head.

    What in the f**k in the last twenty years tells you this should be so?

    America has worked with warlords in Somalia, Latin American despots, hell, Al-Qaeda in its iteration fighting the Soviet Union, post-Tiananmen China, the Taliban, Sunni extremists---what in the hell makes Iran so different again?

    America has betrayed its values in war. It has betrayed its values in closing the open web. It has betrayed its values to maintain a system that is clearly unmaintainable---a treadmill that demands more resources and more bodies every day. We run an unsustainable system on oil, and constantly ask scientists and real builders to deploy ever more risky solutions to catch up. This cannot sustain itself.

    For those of us who thought Obama would have been different---we have been more than betrayed. He has continued Bush-era policies---the same ones that degraded a great nation and laid it bare.

    That's too bad.

    America the idea is great. But the political class continues to pervert and pollute it.

    Fallujah, Tikrit, Mosul and Tel Afar have populations of millions and ISIS is around 10,000. If the people there didn't tacitly support ISIS they couldn't have marched through them, much less "control" them.

    No amount of Murican support was going to stop the impending civil war in Iraq. The South, where the oil is, is solidly Shia and pro-Iran, so where does our strategic interest lie Dick?

    It's like as if the Tea Party were going to attack Occupy Wall Street, and for some reason a foreign invading force known for creating torture networks, and for "accidentally" killing American children would be the trick to resolve the issue, and ease tensions.

    Thanks Dick for reminding people who we hate more.

    Let's revive Karl Rove from the mausoleum and let him hash out a 200 word zinger.

    Well he may be a criminal and he may be wrong about everything regarding Iraq, but he's still the president till his term runs out.
