Under Cheney, the Government gave a no-bid contract to Cheney’s old company to be the military contractor in Iraq. With guaranteed profits, which meant that the more money they spent, the more money they made. They were found to be overcharging and wasting money like crazy. While profiting from rebuilding what the Bush administration bombed.
Coverage by the “liberal media” – almost non-existent.
“You know, Paul, Reagan proved that deficits don’t matter.”
“Let us rid ourselves of the fiction that low oil prices are somehow good for the United States”
“We also have to work, though, sort of the dark side, if you will.”
“I really do believe that we will be greeted as liberators.”
" I think they’re in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency."
Then there’s the part where he doesn’t seem to support the pustulent orange failure:
“I think this whole notion that somehow we can just say no more Muslims, just ban a whole religion, goes against everything we stand for and believe in. I wouldn’t support a ban on all Muslims coming into this country.”
“NATO’s crucial. NATO’s maybe the best, or most successful, alliance in history… To suggest that it’s obsolete is not correct. It’s not obsolete.”
Yeah, I suppose if you’re willing to stoop to defending Individual 1, you’re probably willing to stoop to defend anyone, even if Cheney had shot you in the face!

Facts matter. Truth hurts. Payne Refects neither facts nor truth.
Typical lying regressive.

Henry, I want to Quote Dick Cheney. From a Speech in the Sacred Halls of our beloved Capital Building.
“Go Fuck Yourself”
