Cheney Blasts Reid For Using War For Political Gain
WASHINGTON - With tempers flaring Tuesday on the eve of congressional action, Vice President Dick Cheney denounced the Democratic leader of the Senate for pressing for timelines to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq beginning later this year.
Cheney heatedly attacked Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., the Senate majority leader, for making what Cheney called "uninformed and misleading" statements and for orchestrating Democrats' "blind opposition" to the Bush administration's latest policy in Iraq.
Cheney also accused Reid of advocating three different policies for funding the Iraq war and of misrepresenting recommendations by the Iraq Study Group.
Cheney, a hard-nosed Washington insider with experience on the White House staff in the 1970s, Congress in the 1980s and the Pentagon in the early 1990s, accused Reid of "defeatism," adding that legislation requiring phased withdrawal of U.S. combat troops over a six-month period "would guarantee defeat."
Cheney broke with his six-year practice of avoiding news conferences during his regular visits to Capitol Hill to accuse Reid of using the Iraq war to try to gain Democrats additional seats in the 2008 congressional elections.

http://www.youtube.com/v/ervaMPt4Ha0%26autoplay=1
Thank you so much for that link DD2 I'm putting that on my front page after I sign off from here. These are our guys and I am so proud of them and no democrat or left wingut can say or do anything that can stop me from supporting our guys.
Thank's DD,
It's added :-)
Thanks God for the VETO!!!!!
Great video. Yep the Desm,"love, " the country and "support, " the troops. NOT!!!!
I noticed you haven't had the nerve to try the page reconfiguration. Relax, its not quite as hard as it seems! Good luck and again if I can help let me know!
How can you claim to support the troops when you send them off to a war that is unconstitutional?
I blame ANYONE who voted for the war.
Anon,
Billy Bob Clinton sent our Troops off to war in Bosnia/Kosovo. And they never attacked us.
Where were you guys then?
Unconstitutional my ass!
Tell me what part of the Constitution prohibits the President from going to war against a sworn enemy of the United states Of America, after the act of war has been declared, and carried out?
I am getting sick of doing your homework for you, now you start proving this nonsense to me!
I know Clinton did that. It was unconstitutional as well.
The constitution (Article I, Section 8) ONLY grants Congress the power to "Declare War". They did not do that. They went around their oath of office by voting to give the authority to the President to start the war when he feels like it. The constitution does NOT grant Congress the power to give THEIR responsibility to another branch of government. It's really that simple.
Anon,
If it were that simple and (God knows I would try to blame Clinton for everything but I cant) why on earth do you think no one I mean NO ONE has gone after any one for articles of Impeachment?
PLEASE!!! Get it together in your head.
We are AT WAR!! There are no and's, if's, or but's about it. We are going to save Your ass even if you dont want to be saved!!!
"why on earth do you think no one I mean NO ONE has gone after any one for articles of Impeachment?"
- Who is going to impeach the majority of Congress and the Administration? Unless there were an overthrow it wouldn't happen. My point is that MOST, democrats and republicans, are violating their oath of office by not doing what their oath requires them to do - "protect and preserve the constitution of the U.S. from enemies foreign and domestic". That's is the American government's NUMBER 1 reason for existing - To preserve LIBERTY, not "protect everyone at all cost".
Bush so often says "My job is to protect the American people and that's what I'm gonna do." Wrong, Mr. President. That is NOT your job. Your job is to Protect and Defend the U.S. Constition first and foremost. Period. No debating. No excuses. No "if's and's or but's" about it. Period. Protect the Constitution. End of argument.
Anon,
My God!!
You are so out of touch.
The President's job is to Protect the Consitution from ALL ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC!!!
The Constitution IS THE COUNTRY!!!
The President has the authority when attacked to activate war!! PERIOD!
He dosent even need Congressional approval when attacked. But he sought and recieved it. There fore the President didnt NOTHING wrong.
If Bush hasnt been protecting us then who has? We havent been attacked since 9-11 and that IS NOT by accident!!
I dont even know why I am trying to prove a point with you, you know where I stand and I know where you stand. We arent going to change each otheres minds!!
Give it up.
I dont have time for you Retreat-In-Defeat Loones.
Are you deleting post you don't agree with not?
The President's job is to Protect the Consitution from ALL ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC!!!
The Constitution IS THE COUNTRY!!!
- That's right. That's not what he's doing. He's violating the Constitution all the time, and so is the majority of Congress.
Real,
I dont delete comments except from only one person.
A nutjob named KEvron who comes on here and bashes the Troops and I wont have that. He is the ONLY Moron I will delete.
If you think President Bush violates the Constitution all the time then it's time for you to put up or shut up, PROVE IT!
Provide some evidence, a link, and I dont mean from HuffPo!!
US District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor ruled that the wiretaps are unconstitutional because Bush was required to get approval from FISA.
Bush subverted the Constitution, its guarantee of a republican form of government, and the constitutional separation of powers by undermining the rightful authority of Congress to declare war.
Real,
Unless you are making phone calls to Al-Quaida from the US, you dont have anything to worry about.
"Unless you are making phone calls to Al-Quaida from the US, you dont have anything to worry about."
- That's beside the point. It's illegal. I thought you cared about the Constitution and Liberty.
"Those that trade Liberty for Security deserve neither and will lose both." - Ben Franklin
Anon,
It is NOT illegal to listen in on phone calls from terrorists to the US or Vise Versa.
That is what is happening and that falls under FISA.
They could care less if you are buying a bag of weed (Which I'm beginning to think you may have had to much of) or trying to get a chicken recipe from Grandma!
We are talking Phone calls from terrorists to and from the US NOTHING more.
Whether you like it or not we will prevent another terrorist attack in this Country without having to give up any of our freedoms that is unless you are cohorting around with Al-Qauida!
And our Forefathers, like Ben Franklin didnt have to deal with Al-Quaida!
"It is NOT illegal"
- They weren't spying on just "terrorists", Marie. They were spying on MILLIONS of innocent Americans and peace groups!
I mean, what the hell? They freakin' ADMITTED it! You don't even believe them when THEY tell you they did it? LOL Good lord almighty!
GEORGE W. BUSH VIOLATED HIS OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES - so says Judges, Constitutional Scholars, Judge Andrew Napolitano, and on and on and on.
You just don't want to believe it so you can keep rooting on a stupid dead end war that will cost the tax payers b/w 600 BILLION and a TRILLION dollars. Money of which we are BORROWING from the CHINESE!
You all are some sad individuals.
Realannoying,
You are really out there. You are far more extreme than I EVER thought about being, and I'm bad!
I want a YouTube Video where President Bush said we were syping on our own people!! Not a link to some freaky conspiracy theory website, I WANT A VIDEO!! You wont be able to produce one BECAUSE HE NEVER SAID THAT.
It has ALWAYS been Listening in on Phone calls from Al-Queda to the US or Vise Versa!
President Bush has violated NO oath of office.
If that were the case dont you think that the Democrats would be salivating at the opportunity to Impeach the President?
MY GOD!! You are insane.
You and Ron Paul and his cult are all INSANE!!
You better go read FISA one more time!!
RC here
Why did judges rule it illegal if it wasn't illegal, Marie?
You ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer. Lay off the Hannity for a while.
Reagan would NEVER spy on millions of Americans.
Really Trippin,
I notice you have Provided NO Video or ANY evidence where President Bush EVER once said we "Are Spying On Americans"!!
Like I asked you to provide.
Because YOU CANT FIND ONE BECAUSE PRESIDENT BUSH NEVER SAID THAT!
Nice try to change the subject though, to bad it didnt work.
Diggs Taylor (An appointee from the Clinton administration) said it was inconstitutional, and the Supreme Court said it WAS Constitutional.
"Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) of 1978 prescribes procedures for the physical and electronic surveillance and collection of "foreign intelligence information" between or among "foreign powers".
FISA is codified in 50 U.S.C. ยงยง1801-1811, 1821-29, 1841-46, and 1861-62.[1] The subchapters of FISA provide for:
Electronic Surveillance
Physical Searches
Pen Registers and Trap & Trace Devices for Foreign Intelligence Purposes
Access to certain Business Records for Foreign Intelligence Purposes
The Act was amended by the USA Act (part of the USA PATRIOT Act) of 2001, primarily to include terrorism on behalf of groups that are not specifically backed by a foreign government.">
Is this getting through to you yet?
How about this?
FISA
You do know what FISA means dont you?
Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act NOT Domestic Surveillance Act
Forieign! Signed into law by Jimmy Peanut Carter in 1978
This act has been used by President's Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, Bush 41, Clinton and Bush 43.
Yet you pick President Bush out of ALL the Presidents that have EVER used this tool.
You are not the brightest Crayon in the Box either.
Hannity?
I didnt get this form Hannity! I got ot straight from the LAW itself! I suggest you put the Pipe down or the Kool-Aid one or the other.
Hell at least I provide links YOU PROVIDE NOTHING!!
NONE OF THEM SPIED ON AMERICANS, they are only ineretsed in Surveillance going to Terrorist Organizations that go to and from The US and Vise Versa.
You are WRONG!
You need to quit hanging out with Ron Paul and his stupid Conspiracy theories!!
Grow a Brain!!
