Rove on Obama: “He’s right, he’s not Dick Cheney," Rove said. "Dick Cheney at least had the guts to step up and defend these National Security Agency programs, where the president was sending out underlings in order to defend it himself and then going on a talk radio program, a TV talk program, as he fled the country for the G-8 meeting."
There is so much wrong with this we don't even know where to begin. Yes, Obama is no Cheney. Cheney lied and cheated to bring this nation to a devastating war and occupation in Iraq. So Cheney is a war criminal, Obama is not. Cheney deliberately outed a vital national security asset in order to try and silence somebody who was calling out his Iraq lies. So Cheney is a traitor and Obama is not. And last... Robert Gates after Obama got Bin Ladin: "I worked for a lot of these guys. And this is one of the most courageous calls – decisions — that I think I’ve ever seen a president make.”
So... fuck you Karl.
