I like Chaney. He's ruthless and can kill thousands without losing sleep, but you know what? I think he is who we need for the war against radical Islam.
3. My kind of "president"...
William ,   USA   (08.30.09)
He should have been elected for president after Bush left office... They don't make them like this guy anymore... He deserves to be in the white house and not that jigaboo....
4. Cheney is a good mensch.
Tahl ,   Ashdod, Israel   (08.30.09)
The reason America loses the war on terror, is because it falsely and naively believes the other side, the axis of evil, can be reasoned with, and does not know how to talk to dictators. GW Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld are a few good mensches, who realized where diplomacy ends and whoopass begins. Too bad Americans were so naive to choose Hussein instead.

7. islamic "president" o-BUM-a would willingly let a million
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (08.31.09)
Americans die so we could not be accused of torturing the people who are dedicated to killing is. A snot nosed little boy in soiled underpants sits in the White House and makes the whole world unsafe, all that is except for the terrorists, they will do just fine.

9. The Left's most hated man?
Cameron ,   USA   (08.31.09)
I know of no one, not even George Bush, who can send Leftists into such surreal, foam-at-the-mouth hysterics like this fellow. An awesome power. Refreshingly honest man who acts decisively where others simply sit, worry, and wring their hands. What a contrast when compared to the smiling pack of hustlers we are stuck with now.

13. cheney is pure evil
shock ,   granada, spain   (08.31.09)
""Cheney said those techniques were "directly responsible for the fact that for eight years, we had no further mass casualty attacks against the United States.""" I guess cheney has forgotten 9/11 attacks under his administration. Bush(a coward with bully apparience, because of that he didn´t order a Iran strike) and Cheney(not a coward, but pure evil) were responsible for the growing of islamic extremism and the terror attacks in Europe. If there are another terror attack on the US i will blame cheney because cheney´s polices are directly responsible for the growing of islamic extremism. Obama without firing a single bullet has achieved a hizbullah losing in lebanon and a deep divide in Iran´s political system which can bring down the mullahs. With bush/cheney ahmadinejad would have won the elections without the need of steal it and a devastating war will have follow.
14. Cheney next Isaeli PM
Mike ,   Boston, USA   (08.31.09)
15. Cheney avoided saying much about Obama
jane ,   London - UK   (08.31.09)
Not unsurprisingly, Cheney doesn't really delve into what Obama's true intentions might be. Obama couldn't have attended Wright's church for over 20 years without knowing that Wright is anti-white and anti-American. Obama was a member of the communist party just 13 years ago, so it wasn't a student thing. NBC published an article last October noting Obama's close ties with Jihad. Soon nobody in the CIA will be prepared to assassinate a terrorist. Is Obama naive or is he intentionally undermining the US? A new article that examines this is at http://www.ourchangingglobe.com/why-is-the-cia-being-attacked/ Jane
16. Chaney
Marilyn ,   USA   (08.31.09)
How soon people forget. Have a possible war cost of up to 3 trillion dollars, massive shame from being known as a country that tortures, as well as being lied to, soldiers coming back insane, etc. I felt pretty traumatized in general by this administration. They should all just stay gone.
17. Brace yourself, Marilyn
Cameron ,   USA   (08.31.09)
The cold world being what it is, combined with the antics & foolishness of the Obama administration, guarantee types like Cheney coming into power in the near years ahead. No need to look into a crystal ball to discern the future on that issue.
18. 13 - what color is the sky in your world?
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (08.31.09)
let me get this straight: -9/11 happened less than 8 months into the bush administration, so it is cheney's fault. -if there is another islamic attack on the US during obama's administration, it is cheney's fault. -and to give credit for what happened in lebanon to obama is incredible (never mind that hizbullah is now more powerful militarily and politically than ever before). that's crazy talk.
