Cheney: B.O. "worst president in my lifetime"
2014-07-17
[THELEAD.BLOGS.CNN] Although a fierce critic of Barack Obama
Because I won...
, former Vice President Dick Cheney does not support calls from some on the far right of his party to impeach him, saying it would simply create a distraction.

"I'm not prepared at this point to call for the impeachment of the President," Cheney said in an interview with CNN's "The Lead with Jake Tapper."

Cheney believes Obama is "the worst president of my lifetime" and that "Jimmy Carter
... the worst president ever. Maybe the second worst. The votes aren't all in yet...
might have been a better President," but impeaching him is not going to accomplish much.

#13  Agree.

The Washington insiders pretty much control who gets nominated - if a 'non-insider' looks like they might get the nomination they will do what they (as well as their media enablers) did in Mississippi - accuse the conservative of racism and all sorts of ugly things. That wasn't done only by the local republicans - that was financed by the Senate Republicans as well.
They are playing hardball now to maintain the status quo. They would rather see a 'insider' democrat win a seat (or the Presidency) than a real conservative.

#12  Yeah grom... I know you are right.

We have the insider party with two sets of managers. Anyone bucking the status quot is marginalized and demonized... aka the tea party.

Until the Washington insiders of both parties are driven out, they will continue to enrich themselves off our money and take more of our freedoms no matter who is in charge.

#11  I know, Darth, but my point is: don't think that all you've to do is elect a pub in 2016.

Obama is part of the bureaucracy and is their champion.

#9  Obama is not the disease, he's a symptom. The bureaucracy is the disease

#7  ..unless you consider that human events don't always play out the way some people intended. As in the curse - be careful what you wish for, you may get it. That's when they discover that what they considered their enemies may have been the only thing between them and something far far worse that, by their actions, they unleash not just on others but upon themselves.

#6  Four! :(

In order for this not to be 'according to plan' and just be 'screwups' - Obama and his team would have to be very, very, stupid.

Obama is not stupid. (Foolish maybe...)
ValJar is not stupid.

I'm not going to underestimate their intelligence - you simply don't get to their level by being stupid.

They may be crooked, they may be liars of the first order, they may be evil, and racist, they may hate everything America stands for, but stupid they are not.

#5  I agree with Cheney on this but I think he should probably lay low and let others speak. It is too easy for folks to not listen because of the messenger (same goes for Palin whom I like).

Need to get a lefty or two on the record saying that sort of thing.

#3  I may be paranoid but I think it is according to plan.

Well...shoot...then that makes two of us (at least).

#2  I'd have to agree. I've never seen anyone screw things up so monumentally in such a short time (although living through this regime seems like a century). I may be paranoid but I think it is according to plan.

#1  Not to bust Cheney's bubble but the setting up of PERMANENT + UNCHALLENGED OWG-NWO is likely to continue after the Bammer formally leaves office in Jan. 2017.

As a matter of potential post-Obama, pro-OWG-NWO GEOPOL ANARCHY + CHAOS, by-n-for OWG-NWO, the Bammer's GOP-DEM successor MAY BE MUCH WORSE, + INDEED TO CONTINUE SETTING UP OWG-NWO WILL HAVE TO BE BY DEFINITION.

IOW, DON'T FEAR OBAMA - FEAR HIS GLOBALIST SUCCESSOR(S)!

DON'T FEAR THE JIHADI OR AL-QAEDA, ETC. - FEAR THEIR LAWYERS + ACLU!

EYES WIDE OPEN, NOT EYES WIDE SHUT.
