Following up on this morning’s report, Dick Cheney was on Capitol Hill once again today, delivering yet another round of advice to congressional Republicans on foreign policy as if he still has credibility on the subject. The failed former vice president was reportedly “greeted with affection,” and received standing ovations from the assembled GOP lawmakers....

Asked if he saw any irony in Cheney coming to talk to Republicans about next steps in Iraq, (New York Rep. Peter King) said firmly, “No, because most of us think we did the right thing in Iraq.”

And there it is. Even now, years later, as the world struggles with the consequences of a disastrous war, which the Bush/Cheney team handled in the most incompetent, dishonest, and corrupt ways possible, congressional Republicans look back and think, “Yep, that was a smart move.”

If anyone ever wonders why credible debates over foreign policy seem so incredibly difficult right now, look no further than the fact that “most” congressional Republicans consider the worst foreign-policy catastrophe in a generation “the right thing.”

Derp.
