Kept Us Safe for How Many Years?

Liz Cheney on Morning Joe today:

"I think it does a disservice to the Bush administration, frankly. We kept the nation safe for eight years."

Eight years. Except for the deadliest terrorist attack on American soil in 2001. Except for tens of thousands of American casualties in Iraq. Except for multiple attacks on our allies in Spain and England. Except for thousands of attacks on Americans in Afghanistan. Except for anthrax. Except for the hundreds of thousands of Americans who are out of work because of Reaganomics and Republican economic policies. Other than all that -- eight years!

Video:

And Dick Cheney is once again proving to be the most cowardly man in American politics -- sending his daughter out to defend his policies and criminal mistakes. What a man he is. Tell me, fellow Dads, would you ever in a million years allow your daughter to go out and defend your work? I would lay down under the wheel of my daughter's vehicle before I would willingly let her do such a thing. Dick Cheney is a disgraceful and cowardly human being -- for this and many other reasons.
