Get Real

Watching the right wing drool over Super Tough guy and very masculine Dick Cheney tell us all how he kept America safe, it's worth noting that EVERY PRESIDENT HAS KEPT US SAFE!

Even Madison who faced actual invasion, eventually kept the country safe. The only president that suffered foreign mass casualty attacks on American soil was George W. Bush. There's no reason to let them get away with this.

*Update:

Last November American voters had a referendum on foreign policy. The choices were clear. Did they want to continue the Bush/Cheney era of foreign policy or a new approach led by Barack Obama. The voters overwhelmingly selected Obama. Maybe that doesn't mean anything to the MSM right now, but surely Cheney's track record of being wrong has to account for something.

President Obama's press secretary sure thinks so.
