Former vice-president Dick Cheney is speaking out forcefully against Obama’s soft approach to national security. He says closing Gitmo is foolish and warns that a WMD attack on America is highly probable if our intelligence agencies lose the tools that have kept us safe for seven years.
“When we get people who are more concerned about reading the rights to an Al Qaeda terrorist than they are with protecting the United States against people who are absolutely committed to do anything they can to kill Americans, then I worry,” Cheney said.
Protecting the country’s security is “a tough, mean, dirty, nasty business,” he said. “These are evil people. And we’re not going to win this fight by turning the other cheek.”
Cheney was interviewed by Politico for nearly 90 minutes and the resulting article makes for a fascinating read. I think the former VP is right on the money with his observations about the Obama administration. The fact is, whether you approve of them or not, the Bush/Cheney policies have kept us safe for more than seven years. Rolling back a system that’s working to a system that has failed in the past is not only absurd — it’s dangerous.
All this nonsense about “restoring America’s image in the world” is a bunch of liberal, peacenik, pinko crap. The only people who care about that shit are left-wing apologists who think we can make friends with the terrorists if we just try.
We are at war with radical f*cking Islam and our enemies play for keeps. This is no joke and it looks like a lot more Americans are gonna have to die before we realize this.
