Cheney says "No one was smart enough to figure it out"

During an interview Thursday with The Associated Press in his West Wing office, Cheney defended the administration's performance on an economy that is growing weaker daily and which recently collapsed in spectacular fashion. Cheney said that "nobody anywhere was smart enough to figure it out."

Alrighty then.............There we have it!

Maybe *more* of *them* should frequent ATS!

If it wasnt for Bush N Cheney and his goons of Bush/Cheneynomic Choppers, we wouldnt have this economic crisis to begin with.

How dumb do they think we are?

Cheney will not have a very warm welcome home here in Casper when he returns from DC.


Cheers!!!!

The mountains of coc aine and alcohol took their toll? Hmmm....I suppose they intend to use lack of brain power as a defense if they ever get dragged to international courts as well.

He most likely won't go back to Casper but instead will reside in Dubai!

I just don't understand how they can deny, deny, and deny something and play clueless when it comes to pass!

He clearly forgot to add:

"nobody anywhere was smart enough to figure it out.
- We had a plan to completely bankrupt the country
and tear it apart in as many ways as possible -
and we did a fine job! Just look what we have accomplished.
No one has anything now - well except for us.
We'll be fine."

...wow.
How stupid do they think we are?
It got pretty obvious, you know, by the time the mainstream media found out about it.
Or when gas prices soared and houses were foreclosed and food prices went up and people lost their jobs.
Either way.

The article I quoted is short, sweet, and brazen. I really liked this part.

He said Bush doesn't need to apologize because he has taken "bold, aggressive action."

He may have taken bold, aggressive action............But it certainly hasn't been to do anything to help the American public.

Well I'm sure no one is happy about the economic crisis but he may have a point.
Not one economic expert, anywhere, saw this coming.

They are both horrible horrible little men.
Lacking in any sort of integrity.
Horrible little men.

I wonder if on some level it has become as easy to believe one's own lies as it is to play dumb???

In my most recent memory of the first of that type of obvious mental deflection was when daddy B said "Read my lips, I will not raise taxes"

Then stuck it to us some more!

Yeah: "No one anywhere was smart enough to figure it out. Now that you're all royally screwed beyond repair I can just come out and say it because there's nothing you can do to stop it. *wink*"

(insert expletives here)

What line is it that Cheney always likes to use.....

..."so what". Isnt it?

That #@#%$$#@#! (not intended to defeat snipper, just randomly uppercase number keys hit in a rage.)



Cheers!!!!

Bush was already found guilty internationally of genocide, crimes against humanity by use of DU weaponry which was called a WMD by the UN.

www.scoop.co.nz...

After 3 years of investigation by 60 expert witnesses and jurists at a cost of $1 million raised by Japanese citizens, the International Criminal Tribunal For Afghanistan at Tokyo on March 10, 2004 found President George W. Bush guilty of the war crimes of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes for the use of depleted uranium (DU) weapons by US forces in the 2001 war against Afghanistan.

Experts agree that a substantial portion of the depleted uranium in the DU weapons used by the US in Afghanistan came from Canadian uranium. Had the Tokyo Tribunal been diligent, it could have found Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chrétien, who resigned as Prime Minister on December 12, 2003, guilty as an accessory to genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes, for failing to enforce Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission regulations, and the Canada-US Nuclear Cooperation Agreement, both of which prohibit Canadian uranium from being used in DU weapons.

I have a thread in my profile about this, and I believe there were pdfs there as well. I put quite a bit of research into it. Of course theres more research mounting even now, as idust.org has much to add to this.

With the research and evidence mounting, if the worst predictions for the next few years don't come to pass, I believe there will be international justice, because they've pretty much destroyed the world for the next 4.5 billion years.

They have the playing dumb stuff down to a fine science. Many politicians (and other people) - do. It just got too easy to lie to us about everything. Once they started they couldn't stop. It was just too easy.

And the lesson here is for us to never again become complacent.

Many of us have brain power that far surpasses the people
that we have elected to "lead" us.

It's a fantasy - this system of finding the best "man or woman" to take the reigns and trust them to do the right thing.
I hope as a species we start getting that and I hope it isn't too late to get.
