Sen Reid: 'Cheney more responsible than anyone for worst foreign policy decision in history of USA'

[kpete]

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid today criticized former Vice President Dick Cheney’s views on foreign policy, describing his advice to House Republicans as “terrifying.”

“Taking advice from Dick Cheney on foreign policy? That’s a terrifying prospect. We should be learning from our past mistakes, not repeating them,” Reid said on the Senate floor today.

“They’ve got to be really careful with advice they take from Dick Cheney. Dick Cheney is more responsible than anyone else for the worst foreign policy decision in the history of the country — the invasion of Iraq,” Reid said.

Cheney, one of the architects of the Iraq war, met privately with House Republicans Tuesday and discussed the threat that the Islamic militant group ISIS poses to the international community.

Cheney is responsible for so much crime and war, yet he will NEVER be held accountable by the PTB.

13. This really can't be said often enough.

Every time Cheney makes some war-thirsty statement, he should be mocked for what he has done.
