    the only people that want to see america attacked are the people that will benefit ... which are your arms manufacturers and engineering firms

    Yep thats it... :roll: :lol:

    sorry ... i should have prefaced it with ... *in america*

    I think a few politicians also feathered their own nests with the off-shoot of over 1 million dead Iraqis.

    More fearmongering from the CIA?

    this opinion doesn't invoke fear in anyone for any reason so i don't see the fearmongering ... i just think this is obama trying to offset cheney's pr war on this administration ...


    Yep, that's exactly what it is...also setting it up so if the US is attacked Obama can still blame Cheney...since he wanted it to happen.

    It's all stupid BS. I also think it is extremely irresponsible of anyone to claim someone (even Dick Cheney) WANTS the US to be attacked and people killed. It's beyond stupid, it's insulting and childish.

    Maybe Obama WANTS the US to be attacked so he can change into "Yes We Can" Man, cape and all, save the day and mark his place in the History books....again.

    Your argument is easily and more convincingly applied to Cheney. He's setting it up so that if there is an attack, all of his horrific abuses and disastrous foreign policy decisions get a free pass... he can say it was Obama's fault and it vindicates everything his admin did. What he is doing is far more irresponsible than anything that CIA leader said... he is basically out there saying all over the country to the entire world that we're plenty vulnerable, go ahead and take a shot.

    I've never seen less dignified behavior in a major officeholder outside of Rod Blago in IL. Clinton laid low. Bush has kept a low profile and handled himself with unusual tact. Gore kept his head down after being VP. Bush Sr, Carter, Reagan... every former major executive had the good grace to step back and give the next guy time to breathe. Cheney has been running all over the country in the most desperately and pathetically transparent effort to rationalize and apoligize for one of the worst administration's in history in an attempt to save some face. We've never had a major US government official closer to international censure for war crimes, and he's out there trashing the current guy and telling everyone he's doing a terrible job becos he doesn't want to look like the shit VP he was. Fuck Dick. He deserves whatever demeaning comments they want to toss his way. When he can handle himself with class, I'll grant him some slack. But he's been a complete douchebag since leaving office and I won't be weeping any tears over the fact that someone finally called him on his childish bullshit.
