And another war criminal escapes justice.

Beyond the war crimes, his horrible policies, and shooting people in the face, I will always remember him for a bit on the Daily Show when Jon Stewart parodied the classic Eminem song with his own version, "I'm Dick Cheney, the real Dick Cheney..."

 

[Corvus]

I'd like to congratulate Cheney for finally accomplishing one of the things most of us wished he'd do.

 

[Wheelimus]

Cheney was an old retired man well defeated by history. Donald Trump is an old man who is currently wreaking havoc on the country.

Admit it Allspark, your first thought was "aww, why Cheney and not Trump."

If we can't celebrate old monsters from leaving the world, how do we justify celebrating current monsters when they leave?

 

[Wheelimus]

You can celebrate, but why not both?

Like try harder Grim Reaper.

Not me. The Iraq War is still the worst thing this government has done in my lifetime and I don't consider it a close call. This is still a hot button / red line / whatever for me. Everyone responsible for that mess is the worst person. Until Trump actually invades Canada because he feels like it, he is just not in that league.

Even if the argument is "Yeah but Trump is doing damage now and we have to live with it now", we are still living with the Iraq War now too.

You do realize that satan is keeping trump alive, right? Big red doesn't want the orange dump stinking up hell.

I see it as us still living with the fallout of 9/11, really. Without 9/11, there would have been the Iraq War and or the Great Recession, which created most lot of the foundational situation for Trump and similar far-right populists to emerge and gain power across the globe.

I feel like you need to elaborate on this more. We're still living with the aftermath of the Patriot Act, sure, but the Iraq War specifically? I feel like in the long run all that did was cripple the Republicans' credibility, and even that didn't last. Well, and it killed a lot of people, but I think the death toll from COVID in 2020 managed to top that as well.

It also has a 30 day provision in it that protects the victims identities.

Ironbite-bet he's the one vote Trump was able to persuade.

Man, what a way to make a name for yourself in the history books.

 

[Wheelimus]

Wonder how many times Clay Higgins appears in the Epstein Files.

Probably more than McGruber.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Honestly? I doubt he's in there. He's never made enough money to qualify. He's either a complete idiot (which his record strongly suggests.) or someone higher up has other dirt on his ass.
