Hey Dick, here's yer helmet, rifle, boots and pack
...now you go on over there and get them Eye-Raynians fer us, ye'hear?
Yep, ol' Dick five-deferment Cheney is saber-rattling again. I wish he would stay holed up in his undisclosed location rather than running all over in the Middle East stirring up conflict.
From The New York Times: "Vice President Dick Cheney used the deck of an American aircraft carrier just 150 miles off Iran’s coast as the backdrop yesterday to warn that the United States was prepared to use its naval power to keep Tehran from disrupting oil routes or “gaining nuclear weapons and dominating this region.”[..]
That's right, Dick. Bomb that evil Iran .. make sure every progressive, young person in that country is pushed away from their pro-western mindset right into Mahmoud's waiting arms.
Iran is one of only two democracies in the Middle East, and American belligerence will antagonize those Iranians who would be most sympathetic to the United States.
Congress has to shut this off before Cheney drives us over the edge into another disaster like Iraq.
But then again .. those two strike groups could be there to protect Halliburton's new head office in Dubai.
