LESS IS MORE

In a speech Wednesday night, former Vice President Dick Cheney criticized President Obama for taking too much time to decide how many more troops to send to Afghanistan, if any at all. Cheney said, "The White House must stop dithering while America's armed forces are in danger." The former vice president thinks the current president is "dithering."

The Bush/Cheney administration controlled the House, the Senate, the judiciary, and the White House and had eight years to get it right. Some of Cheney's accomplishments during that time include: allowing a terrorist attack on 9/11, despite repeated warnings from the CIA and FBI; lying about WMDs; criminal mismanagement of the war; establishing torture as an American policy; giving a a multi-billion dollar no-bid contract to old friends (Haliburton); overseeing a world-wide economic meltdown; exposing the identity of an undercover CIA operative; and shooting a friend in the face.

It think it's time for the former vice president to shut up and go home.
