Darth Cheney: Danger Ahead For Barack Skywalker And The Republic

Former Vice President Darth Cheney warned in an interview this week that there is a "high probability" that terrorists will attempt a catastrophic nuclear or biological attack in coming years, and said he fears the Obama administration’s policies will make it more likely the attempt will succeed.

Does anybody really care anymore what this hack has to say? Why anybody would give him a platform to further his discredited agenda is beyond me. I rather liked the write-up the Daily Kos gave the story:

There is no fact-checking, no challenges to the champion of WMD in Iraq and mushroom clouds, just some stream of consciousness from Cheney "in a self-vindicating mood." Rehashing Cheney's defense of torture, the shredding of the Constitution and the like is pointless, but his comment on the Bush administration's role in the current economic crisis is worth noting:

"We did worry about it, to some extent. ... I don’t think anybody actually
foresaw something of this size and dimension occurring."

Let's add this to the list of things that no one could have foreseen, like airplanes flying into building, and levees failing in New Orleans ... and then give Cheney a platform to tell what he foresees from the Obama administration. Because he has such an outstanding track record.
