Carter: Cheney's Batting Average Is Abysmally Low
CARTER: If you go back and see what Vice President Cheney has said for the last three or four years concerning Iraq, his batting average is abysmally low. He hasn’t been right on hardly anything and his prediction of what is going to happen, reasons for going over there and obviously this is not playing into the hands of al Qaeda or the people who are causing violence and destruction over there, to call for a change in policy in Iraq.

1. And Cheney has the nerve to say he's questioning Pelosi's judgment
Cheney's judgment has been consistently bad, and that's part of what makes the GOP's claims to competence such a joke. Every single policy of theirs going back to the Contract on America has been a dismal failure. And while the dignified Mr. Cheney doesn't question the Speaker's patriotism, only her judgment, I think we should question Cheney's patriotism as well. He has been operating in the interests of his privatized-defense buddies. He has done nothing discernible for the nation as a whole. He has not defended the Constitution, in fact, he has attacked it. He doesn't have good judgment and he's not a patriot. This administration can't point to a single achievement unless you want to claim that monopolizing our national interest with a permanent and ill-defined war on terror is an accomplishment.

2. The man is seriously deluded
In fact he is a danger to himself and others, especially others. He should be fitted for a new jacket and given accommodations in a padded room.

3. Interesting to reread the Sept MTP interview and to realize
just how profoundly wrong Mr. Cheney (Dick of Death) was (or how profoundly he lied!) Greeted as liberators, right Dickie?

4. Cheney is EVIL, he is not mistaken, confused or crazy.
He deliberately lies and does so to extend the time he and his friends can milk every last drop out of the taxpayers and set up a situation where they can milk every ounce of wealth out of the middle east until their great great grandkids are dead.

5. Exactly. Nothing more, nothing less. No "democracy", no "Christianity", no "fight against terrorism"

There is NOTHING Cheney and Bushco are sending Americans to die and to kill for, except M.O.N.E.Y.

It comes in many forms---oil, natural gas, ancient treasures, heroin poppies---but it amounts to M.O.N.E.Y.

6. Cheney's been wrong since he was in the Nixon White House


If he'd been denied just one of those draft deferments, the world might have been spared his criminally misguided, delusional influence on elected officials (and Junior, too).
