What did he mean when he found there were holes in the systemand planned on fixing them.

You're kidding, right? Are you really going to sit here and claim that Clinton/Gore and the rest of the left didn't "do this" to Bush & Cheney???

I just can't seem to get behind Cheney's insane rants. But then again, he lost me when he was the only wingnut to vote against removing aparthied. YMMV.

He's a Lyndon LaRouche with a following that hang on his every word.

Lyndon LaRouche was a 7 time Democratic candidate and 1 time "Labor Party" candidate for president, who went to jail for tax and mail fraud.) How, specifically, does Dick Cheney compare to him?

Do you not see your post as being ridiculously and rhetorically off-the-wall?

You really don't know Dick's history? Really? Draft dodger extraordinaire? Too busy to volunteer? Saddam had nukes? An audience a million times larger than LaRouche ever had? Please don't tell me that after being on this board as long as you have that you are this historically deficient or that you have to be reminded of Cheney's history every time the page refreshes...

Well...please don't tell me that you admire Bill Clinton...and hate Dick Cheney for the exact same reasons. That would be very "deficient"...

I can see no logical reason to release a known terrorist to go to art therapy in Saudi Arabia. They had to know this was likely to happen.

Besides, if Obama did this, can you imagine the response from the right?

I've just had it with the Dick Cheney's of the world throwing around ridiculous comments about Obama when they themselves are guilty of this kind of oversight. Cheney's upset because Obama isn't embracing his inner terror warrior. Fuck that.

I'm fighting spiteful accusations loaded with assumptions with the truth, and all I've added is a motive. Why shouldn't I?

I want them in prisons in the US, we need the jobs.

I'm not wearing a tinfoil hat. Maybe you can explain to me why Bush and Cheney aren't responsible for the underwear bomber?

Maybe you can explain why these deaths aren't the Bush Administration's fault?

After Said Ali- al-Shihri completed the art therapy program after being released from Guantanamo, he turned up in Yemen as a top al Qaeda leader and was responsible for an attack on the U.S. embassy there last year that left 17 people dead, including one American, U.S. officials said.

Since Guantanamo was initiated as a place to "put" these Islamic radical terrorists, liberals in the U.S. have used every means at their disposal to get them released or introduced in to the U.S. civilian court system where they would be supplied with all the rights and privileges of a U.S. citizen, rather than a foreign enemy combatant. The Bush/Cheney Executive branch has been sued, vilified by the liberal media, fought in every court, and assailed by a hostile congress (after 2006) into releasing people and to close the facility. They did what they could to keep them there, but lost the battle to do it, as well as the election in 06, and 08...to a majority of liberals who now want to make a business out of incarcerating these terrorists on American soil...and giving them citizen's rights in civilian courts, where they may grandstand and possibly be released on the whim of a radical judge or jury of people who haven't a clue.

Posting the proof that a liberal poster is irrational in their hostility and hate, (and especially someone who assails your intelligence) by responding with a point-by-point example of how their rhetoric isn't rational or logically consistent isn't "deflection."

If you LOVE Bill Clinton, and HATE Dick Cheney, for the exact same reasons...you could be a hypocrite. Or, at best...simply confused in your thinking.
